Abstract

Solubility data of hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$) and methane ($CH_4$) in two kinds of ionic liquids with the same anion: 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([emim][TfO]) and 1-butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([bmpyr][TfO]) are presented at pressures up to about 30 MPa and at temperatures between 303 K and 343 K. The gas solubilities in ionic liquids were determined by measuring the bubble point pressures of the gas + ionic liquid mixtures with various compositions at different temperatures using a high-pressure equilibrium apparatus equipped with a variable-volume view cell. The $H_2S$ solubilities in ionic liquid increased with the increase of pressure and decreased with the increase of temperature. On the other hand, the $CH_4$ solubilities in ionic liquid increased significantly with the increase of pressure, but there was little effect of temperature on the $CH_4$ solubility. For the ionic liquds [emim][TfO] and [bmpyr][TfO] with the same anion, the solubility of $H_2S$ as a molality basis was substantially similar, regardless of the temperature and pressure conditions as a molar concentration basis. Comparing the solubilities of $H_2S$ and $CH_4$ in the ionic liquid [emim][TfO], the solubilities of $H_2S$ were much greater than those of $CH_4$. For the same type of ionic liquid, the solubility data of $H_2S$ and $CH_4$ obtained in this study were compared to the solubility data of $CO_2$ from the literature. When compared at the same pressure and temperature conditions, the $CO_2$ solubility was in between the solubility of $H_2S$ and $CH_4$.

동일한 음이온을 가진 두 가지 종류의 이온성 액체인 1-ethy-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([emim][TfO])와 1-butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([bmpyr][TfO])를 대상으로 약 303 K로부터 약 343 K의 온도 범위와 약 30 MPa까지의 압력 범위에서 이온성 액체에 녹는 황화수소($H_2S$)와 메탄($CH_4$)의 용해도를 측정하였다. 가변부피투시창이 장착된 고압용 상평형 장치를 사용하여 온도를 변화시키면서 여러 가지 조성을 갖는 기체 + 이온성 액체 혼합물의 기포점 압력을 측정함으로써 이온성 액체에서의 기체의 용해도를 결정하였다. 이온성 액체에 대한 $H_2S$의 용해도는 압력이 증가함에 따라 증가하였으며 온도가 증가함에 따라 감소하였다. 반면에 이온성 액체에 대한 $CH_4$의 용해도는 압력이 증가함에 따라 크게 증가하였으나 온도의 영향은 거의 없었다. 동일한 음이온을 갖는 이온성 액체인 [emim][TfO]와 [bmpyr][TfO]에 대하여 $H_2S$의 용해도는 몰랄 농도 기준으로 온도 및 압력 조건에 관계없이 거의 유사하였다. 이온성 액체[emim][TfO]에 대한 $H_2S$와 $CH_4$의 용해도를 비교한 결과, $H_2S$의 용해도가 $CH_4$의 용해도보다 훨씬 컸다. 동일한 종류의 이온성 액체에 대하여 본 연구를 통해 얻은 $H_2S$와 $CH_4$의 용해도 데이터를 문헌으로부터 얻은 $CO_2$의 용해도 데이터와 비교하였다. 같은 압력 및 온도 조건에서 비교할 때, $CO_2$의 용해도는 $H_2S$와 $CH_4$의 용해도의 사이에 있었다.
