Separation of toluene from a toluene/N2 gas mixture using supported liquid membranes based on a series of pyridinium (1-butylpyridinium- bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide - [C4Py][Tf2N], 1-hexylpyridinium trifluoromethanesulfone [C6Py][Tf2N]) and pyrrolidinium (1-butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide - [C4Pyrr][Tf2N], 1-hexyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide - [C6Pyrr][Tf2N], 1-butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium trifluoromethanesulfone - [C4Pyrr][TfO]) ionic liquids (ILs) was studied over a wide range of temperatures. The toluene permeability and selectivity of separation was investigated in terms of cation and anion type. It was found that both pyridinium and pyrrolidinium ILs show high toluene permeability, up to 2034 barrers, with satisfying separation selectivity. An analysis of two key factors that have an influence on this process, that is diffusion in a form of resistance resulting from the viscosity of membrane liquid and the solubility expressed by the partition coefficient, was made.
