Hydrophobic ionic liquids (IL) may offer a special electrolyte in the form of supported ionic liquid membranes (SILM) for microbial fuel cells (MFC) due to their advantageous mass transfer characteristics. In this work, the proton and ion transfer properties of SILMs made with IL containing imidazolium cation and [PF6]− and [NTf2]− anions were studied and compared to Nafion. It resulted that both ILs show better proton mass transfer and diffusion coefficient than Nafion. The data implied the presence of water microclusters permeating through [hmim][PF6]-SILM to assist the proton transfer. This mechanism could not be assumed in the case of [NTf2]− containing IL. Ion transport numbers of K+, Na+, and H+ showed that the IL with [PF6]− anion could be beneficial in terms of reducing ion transfer losses in MFCs. Moreover, the conductivity of [bmim][PF6]-SILM at low electrolyte concentration (such as in MFCs) was comparable to Nafion.

Abstract Pure chitosan (CS) and hybrid ionic liquid-chitosan membranes loaded with 5 wt% 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate ([emim][Ac]) ionic liquid were prepared in order to improve the thermal behavior of supported ionic liquid membranes (SILMs) for CO2 separation. Gas permeability, solubility and diffusivity were evaluated in the temperature range 298–323 K. The temperature influence was well described in terms of the Arrhenius–van’t Hoff exponential relationships. Activation energies were calculated and compared with those obtained for SILMs with the same ionic liquid. The introduction of this ionic liquid in the hybrid solid membrane decreases the permeability activation energy, leading to a lower influence of the temperature in the permeability and diffusivity. Moreover, the thermal behavior is similar to pure chitosan membranes, and the mechanical strength and flexibility were improved due to the introduction of the ionic liquid in the polymer matrix.
