The ionic liquid, (IL) 1,1,3,3‐tetramethylguanidinium lactate, can absorb SO2 from simulated flue gas effectively under ambient conditions (see scheme). Absorbed SO2 can be desorbed under vacuum or by heating, and the IL can be reused. This absorption method might be used for cleaning gases that contain SO2.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
