Abstract

The vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for binary systems of acetone + 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolebromine ([EMIM][Br]), methanol + 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolebromine ([EMIM][Br]), acetone + 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolebromine ([BMIM][Br]), methanol + 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolebromine ([BMIM][Br]), and ternary VLE data for systems of acetone + methanol + 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolebromine ([EMIM][Br]), acetone + methanol + 1-ethyl-3-butylimidazolebromine ([BMIM][Br]) were detected at 101.3 kPa in an all-glass dynamic recirculating still. With the addition of bromine–based ionic liquids, the relative volatility of acetone to methanol was enhanced and the azeotropy was eventually eliminated. As for the separating effect, [EMIM][Br] is better than [BMIM][Br]. The measured binary and ternary VLE data were correlated with the nonrandom two-liquid activity coefficient model, and the results demonstrated that the experimental data and the correlated data were in good agreement.
