Abstract

A supramolecular deep eutectic solvent (SUPRADES) was synthesized by cyclodextrin and lactic acid, and its synergistic effect on fuel desulfurization performance with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) was also explored. The stability of CNTs in SUPRADES and the effect of CNTs on the viscosity of SUPRADES were investigated. The results indicate that adding CNTs can enhance the desulfurization efficiency of supramolecular deep eutectic solvents, and can achieve a better desulfurization effect in a shorter timeframe. The desulfurization rates were examined under varying conditions, including different CNTs contents, temperatures, O/S ratios, initial sulfur concentrations, and SUPRADES-to-simulated oil volume ratios. The desulfurization rate can reach 90.32 % at a temperature of 80 °C and a mass fraction of CNTs of 0.1 wt%. An increase in desulfurization rate of 19.47 % at 80 °C was observed for HL-β-CD/CNT compared to HL-β-CD. By characterizing the desulfurized SUPRADES, it was found that its structure remained stable after desulfurization. This SUPRADES synergized CNTs provide a novel approach for fuel desulfurization.

期刊介绍： The journal includes papers in the following areas: – Simple organic liquids and mixtures – Ionic liquids – Surfactant solutions (including micelles and vesicles) and liquid interfaces – Colloidal solutions and nanoparticles – Thermotropic and lyotropic liquid crystals – Ferrofluids – Water, aqueous solutions and other hydrogen-bonded liquids – Lubricants, polymer solutions and melts – Molten metals and salts – Phase transitions and critical phenomena in liquids and confined fluids – Self assembly in complex liquids.– Biomolecules in solution The emphasis is on the molecular (or microscopic) understanding of particular liquids or liquid systems, especially concerning structure, dynamics and intermolecular forces. The experimental techniques used may include: – Conventional spectroscopy (mid-IR and far-IR, Raman, NMR, etc.) – Non-linear optics and time resolved spectroscopy (psec, fsec, asec, ISRS, etc.) – Light scattering (Rayleigh, Brillouin, PCS, etc.) – Dielectric relaxation – X-ray and neutron scattering and diffraction. Experimental studies, computer simulations (MD or MC) and analytical theory will be considered for publication; papers just reporting experimental results that do not contribute to the understanding of the fundamentals of molecular and ionic liquids will not be accepted. Only papers of a non-routine nature and advancing the field will be considered for publication.
