The importance of improving adsorbent's adsorption efficiency in organic pollutants has been reported by many researchers. Surfactant-based modified adsorbents were a tasteful choice. As a result, the use of surfactants as a modifier for removing organic pollutants has shown to play a very big role in enhancing the adsorption efficiency of different materials. Ionic liquids are receiving extensive interest as green multipurpose compounds, primarily as a replacement for traditional chemicals that are used in many chemical processes. This work gives a brief bibliometric analysis of application of ionic liquid from 1930 to 2017, documents were collected from Scopus database and keywords from the abstracts and titles were analyzed using VOSviewer software. Furthermore, the work presents a review of conventionally known surfactants and the recent likelihood of ionic liquids for modifying adsorbents for adsorption of organic pollutants. Over the period of years between 1930 and 2017, 13,144 documents were published on the application of ionic liquids. VOSviewer software further confirms that adsorption is one of the leading areas in applications of ionic liquids. Review also showed that ionic liquid is a good modifier of adsorbents.
许多研究人员都曾报道过提高吸附剂对有机污染物吸附效率的重要性。基于表面活性剂的改性吸附剂是一种不错的选择。因此,表面活性剂作为一种去除有机污染物的改性剂,在提高不同材料的吸附效率方面发挥了非常重要的作用。离子液体作为绿色多功能化合物受到广泛关注,主要是作为许多化学过程中使用的传统化学品的替代品。本工作对 1930 年至 2017 年离子液体的应用进行了简要的文献计量分析,从 Scopus 数据库中收集了文献,并使用 Vosviewer 软件对摘要和标题中的关键词进行了分析。此外,本工作还综述了传统的表面活性剂以及离子液体在改性吸附剂吸附有机污染物方面的最新可能性。在 1930 年至 2017 年期间,共发表了 13144 篇关于离子液体应用的文献。VOSviewer 软件进一步证实,吸附是离子液体应用的主要领域之一。综述还表明,离子液体是一种很好的吸附剂改性剂。
