The selective separation of organic compounds is a critical issue in the research of chemical engineering. In this project, a novel separation technology, the phase change extraction with reversible solvent, is proposed. It is designed to combine traditional solvent extraction technology with reversible solvent, which has special physical-chemistry properties and good designability. In this novel separation process, the properties of solvent, such as polarity, phase state, and hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity, etc, can reversibly response to the addition or the removal of initiator, which would lead to phase change or phase separation in extraction process, then special component can be separated and the reversible solvent could be recovered simultaneously. Furthermore, follow-up operations are not necessary, such as back-extraction, distillation, and so on. Operations of the proposed novel separation technology are not only simple and easy, but also highly efficient. With computational quantum chemistry and molecular simulation, the interaction mechanism of reversible solvent with initiator and organic system will be estimated for designing and preparing the suitably reversible solvent. Effects of physicochemical properties of system, as well as operation conditions, process optimization and mass transfer intensification, on the separation performance will be studied. The thermodynamics and kinetics properties of the process will also be investigated. Furthermore, with group contribution method, the mathematical model of mass transfer behavior in phase change extraction separation technology will be studied. Finally, with self-owned independent intellectual property rights, an environment friendly phase change extraction technology with reversible solvent can be established for the industrial application of organic compound separation.
