EXTRACTION OF ANTHRACENE FROM SECONDARY PRODUCTS OF HYDROCARBON PYROLYSIS: A COMPREHENSIVE STUDY
Keywords:
Keywords: Anthracene, hydrocarbon pyrolysis, ultrafiltration, secondary products, membrane separation, solvent extraction.Abstract
Abstract: The extraction of anthracene from the secondary products of
hydrocarbon pyrolysis is a critical process in the chemical industry due to its wide
application in pharmaceuticals, dyes, and polymer production. This study explores an
advanced technological approach for isolating anthracene using ultrafiltration (UF) as
a membrane separation technique. UF has proven effective in separating
macromolecules and organic compounds by applying pressure gradients across
semipermeable membranes
The proposed method ensures high purity and yield while maintaining
environmental sustainability. Experimental results demonstrate that the optimized
conditions for anthracene recovery include specific temperature ranges, solvent
selection, and membrane pore sizes. This research contributes to enhancing the
efficiency of anthracene extraction processes and reducing industrial waste.
