Description
Summary:The efficiency of polyethylene glycol methyl ether 350 (PEG ME-350) in the process of extracting thiophene from model motor fuel has been studied experimentally. The influence of the contact time of the phases, the composition of the extractant, the initial concentration of thiophene, and the volume ratio of the extractant and model fuel on the extraction of thiophene has been investigated. It is found that PEG ME-350 exhibits effective extraction properties with respect to thiophene, extracting it up to 81.58% in one extraction stage. The results can be further used in the development of the extraction purification of liquid motor fuels from sulfur-containing compounds.
