Conclusions ILs are good replacement for conventional solvents ILs are good replacement for conventional solvents ILs provide higher selectivity and effectivity for extraction of charged species (metal ions, zwitterions) ILs provide higher selectivity and effectivity for extraction of charged species (metal ions, zwitterions) ILs can be potentially used for organic compounds extraction ILs can be potentially used for organic compounds extraction
