“…COSMO-RS has been tested as a successful screening tool for several applications, i.e., for selecting organic solvents for extracting furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural from water, ionic liquids for H 2 S capture, deep eutectic solvents (DES) for BTX (benzene, toluene, and xylene) extraction from aliphatics, and extracting solvents for solubilizing artemisin, among others. In fermentation processes, COSMO-RS model has been previously used for screening and solvent selection for the recovery of several classes of bioproducts such as 2-phenylethanol, , 2,3-butanediol, butanol, − 1,5-pentanediamine, succinic acid, , l -lactic acid, l -malic acid, and vanillin, using a wide range of solvents from conventional organic to tailor-made solvents such as ionic liquids or DES. Also, COSMO-based/Aspen Plus methodology is a tool that has allowed the computational design of different processes like the removal of H 2 S from flue gases using ionic liquids, the capture of siloxanes from biogas using ionic liquids, the optimal selection of solvents for aromatic/aliphatic separations, , ionic liquids for extracting the aroma 2-phenylethanol from water, etc.…”
