ABE fermentation uses anaerobic bacteria to produce acetone, butanol and ethanol from carbohydrates. Nowadays, ethanol is used as a petrol additive but butanol, due to its unique properties, can become a future biofuel. To recover n-butanol from the fermentation broth, pervaporation can be used. However, separation performance of pervaporation is limited by the polymeric membrane. This problem can be overcome by using an ionic liquid, immobilized in the active layer of the membrane. This paper investigates the performance of supported ionic liquid membranes (SILMs) employed for the pervaporative concentration of n-butanol. In the study, two ionic liquids (ILs), i.e. trihexyl(tetradecyl)phosphoniumtetracyanoborate (P(6,6,6,14)tcb) and 1-hexy1-3-methylimidazoliwn hexafluorophosphate (Im(6,1)hfp), were used. The ILs were immobilized with the help of polyether block amide (PEBA). To prevent the ionic liquids from leaching out, additional polymeric coating was necessary. For this purpose, an additional amount of PEBA was applied directly on the IL-PEBA layer. The pervaporation process was carried out at 29, 37 and 50 degrees C. The aqueous feed solution contained three organic components, i.e. acetone, butanol and ethanol in a 3:6:1 mass ratio, The concentration of butanol in the feed was 1.5, 3 and 5 wt%. It was found that the permeation fluxes as well as selectivity of the SILMs could be influenced by different ILs. The highest permeation flux, equal to 6,5 kg/(m(2) h), was observed for the membrane without an ionic liquid due to a higher water flux. However, the highest concentration of butanol in the permeate was achieved with the P(6,6,6,14)tcb membrane and the enrichment factor was found to be 14.93 while the selectivity for butanol in relation to water was equal to 8.34.
