Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, the use of ionic liquids in the separation sciences for the development of "greener" extraction and purification processes has attracted growing interest from the scientific community.
In this context, the journal Separation, published by MDPI, has decided to dedicate a Special Issue to "The Application of Ionic Liquids in Separation and Purification Methods". The aim is to focus on the use of ionic liquids in extraction, separation, and purification processes for strategic or high-added-value compounds (metals, biomolecules, etc.).
Given your expertise in this field, I invite you to contribute to this Special Issue by submitting an original research paper. Your contribution will help this Special Issue have a significant impact on the scientific research community. Thank you for your consideration.
Dr. Laurent Dupont
Guest Editor
