Exploring ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvents for emerging contaminant removal from water and wastewater
摘要
Heightened concerns on water pollution have increased research on environmentally friendly materials for water and wastewater treatment. Ionic liquids (ILs) and deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have emerged among potential solutions due to their properties, including low vapor pressure and solvating capabilities, enabling the targeting of specific contaminants. This critical review explores innovative applications of ILs and DESs in water and wastewater treatment, emphasizing adaptability and effectiveness in various treatment processes.
