Abstract
F-elements liquid-liquid extraction has been studied for decades in molecular diluents, but ionic liquids have been more recently considered promising as new solvents for liquid-liquid extraction. In this chapter, the properties of ionic liquids for liquid-liquid extraction are investigated. The different extraction mechanisms are also discussed. Then, focus is made on the design and properties of "task-specific ionic liquids." Finally, advanced selective separations are examined in the last paragraph.
