Solubility of carbon dioxide in aqueous solution of 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol and piperazine

In this work, new experimental results of the vapour-liquid equilibrium (VLE) of CO₂ in aqueous 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) and piperazine (PZ) have been presented in the temperature range of 298-328 K and PZ concentration range of 2-8 mass%, keeping the total amine concentration in the solution at 30 mass%. The partial pressures of CO₂ were in the range of 0.1-1450 kPa. A thermodynamic model was developed to correlate and predict the VLE of CO₂ in aqueous AMP + PZ. The electrolyte nonrandom two liquid (ENRTL) theory has been used to develop the VLE model for the quaternary system (CO₂ + AMP + PZ + H₂O) to describe the equilibrium behaviour of the solution. The experimental data from this work and data available in the literature were used to regress the ENRTL interaction parameters. The model predictions are in good agreement with the experimental data of CO₂ solubility in aqueous blends of this work as well as those reported in the literature. The current model can also predict speciation, heat of absorption, pH of the CO₂ loaded solution, and amine volatility.     

An FTIR spectroscopic study and quantification of 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol,piperazine and absorbed carbon dioxide in concentrated aqueous solutions

This study reports the investigation of carbon dioxide (CO₂) absorption into an amine blend solution of 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) and piperazine (PZ). The reaction in the liquid phase between CO₂ and the amines were qualitatively and quantitatively monitored by Fourier Transform Mid-Infrared spectroscopy (mid-FTIR). A multivariate partial least square regression (PLS2) model was obtained to quantify free or non-reacted AMP and PZ and absorbed CO₂ in all chemical forms, i.e. no differentiation was made into carbonates or carbamates. The calibration model was constructed using a single wide region and 270 calibration samples. The concentration of AMP, PZ and CO₂ from 568 samples were simultaneously predicted with low relative errors.     

Vapor–liquid equilibria of the carbon dioxide (CO2) + 2,2-dichloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane (R123) system and carbon dioxide (CO2) + 1-chloro-1,2,2,2-tetrafluoroethane (R124) system

Binary vapor–liquid equilibrium data were measured for the carbon dioxide (CO₂) + 2,2-dichloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane (R123) system and the carbon dioxide (CO₂) + 1-chloro-1,2,2,2-tetrafluoroethane (R124) system at temperature from 313.15 to 333.15 K. These experiments were carried out with a circulating-type apparatus with on-line gas chromatography. The experimental data were correlated well by Peng–Robinson equation of state using the Wong–Sandler mixing rules.     

VLE of CO2 + glycerol + (ethanol or 1-propanol or 1-butanol)

Vapour-liquid equilibrium of CO₂ + [0.00871 glycerol + 0.99129 (ethanol or 1-propanol or 1-butanol)] mixtures was measured at the temperatures of 313.15 K and 333.15 K, and close to the critical line, at pressures up to 12 MPa. On the liquid side, the bubble points measured for these ternary mixtures follow closely the behaviour of VLE reported by several authors for the corresponding binary mixtures without glycerol. On the vapour side, however, dew points for the ternary mixtures deviate significantly from VLE results for the binaries. A correlation of the results obtained for the CO₂ + glycerol + ethanol mixture with the Peng-Robinson equation of state, admitting quasi-binary behaviour, equally yields good agreement on the liquid side, and significant deviations on the vapour side.     

CO_2在复合溶液MDEA-AMP中的溶解度

测定了CO2在复合溶液N-甲基二乙醇胺(MDEA)+2-氨基-2-甲基-1-丙醇(AMP)中的溶解度,研究了气相CO2浓度、温度和复合溶液的组分对溶解度的影响。实验获得了温度分别为25℃、30℃和40℃时,CO2在复合溶液MDEA-AMP中的溶解度。实验表明,溶解度随气相中CO2浓度升高或随AMP在复合溶液中的摩尔分数升高而升高,随温度升高而降低。     

Pitzer and Pitzer–Simonson–Clegg modeling approaches: Ternary HCl + 1-propanol + water electrolyte system

A survey of literature reveals that the use of Pitzer approach for modeling electrolyte in nonaqueous or in mixed solvent media is still very scarce. Moreover, only two research groups have used the exact and complete form of the more refined Pitzer–Simonson–Clegg (PSC) ion-interaction approach for the investigation of electrolyte in mixed solvent systems.     

High-pressure phase equilibrium in the {carbon dioxide (1) + 1-chloropropane (2)} binary system

The current study reports original vapour-liquid equilibrium (VLE) for the system {CO₂ (1) + 1-chloropropane (2)}. The measurements have been performed over the entire pressure-composition range for the T = (303.15, 313.15 and 328.15) K isotherms. The values obtained have been used for comparison of four predictive approaches, namely the equation of state (EoS) of Peng and Robinson (PR), the Soave modification of Benedict–Webb–Rubin (SBWR) EoS, the Critical Point-based Revised Perturbed-Chain Association Fluid Theory (CP-PC-SAFT) EoS, and the Conductor-like Screening Model for Real Solvents (COSMO-RS). It has been demonstrated that the three EoS under consideration yield similar and qualitatively accurate predictions of VLE, which is not the case for the COSMO-RS model examined. Although CP-PC-SAFT EoS exhibits only minor superiority in comparison with PR and SBWR EoS in predicting VLE in the system under consideration, its relative complexity can be justified when taking into account the entire thermodynamic phase space and, in particular, considering the liquid densities and sound velocities over a wider pressure-volume-temperature range.     

Solubility and preferential solvation of indomethacin in 1,4-dioxane + water solvent mixtures

The solubilities of indomethacin (IMC) in 1,4-dioxane + water cosolvent mixtures were determined at several temperatures, 293.15–313.15 K. The thermodynamic functions: Gibbs energy, enthalpy, and entropy of solution and of mixing were obtained from these data by using the van’t Hoff and Gibbs equations. The solubility was maximal in 0.95 mass fraction of 1,4-dioxane and very low in pure water at all the temperatures. A non-linear plot of ΔH_soln ° vs. ΔG_soln ° with negative slope from pure water up to 0.60 mass fraction of 1,4-dioxane and positive beyond this up to 0.95 mass fraction of 1,4-dioxane was obtained. Accordingly, the driving mechanism for IMC solubility in water-rich mixtures is the entropy, probably due to water-structure loss around the drug non-polar moieties by 1,4-dioxane, whereas, above 0.60 mass fraction of 1,4-dioxane the driving mechanism is the enthalpy, probably due to IMC solvation increase by the co-solvent molecules. The preferential solvation of IMC by the components of the solvent was estimated by means of the quasi-lattice quasi-chemical method, whereas the inverse Kirkwood-Buff integral method could not be applied because of divergence of the integrals in intermediate compositions.     

Equilibrium solubility of carbon dioxide in (2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol + piperazine + water)

In this work, a new set of values for the solubility of carbon dioxide in aqueous mixture containing different concentrations of 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP), a sterically-hindered amine, and piperazine (PZ), an activator, are presented. The results were carefully determined using a 1.0 dm³ stainless steel vapour-recirculation equilibrium cell at T = (313.2, 333.2, and 353.2) K, and pressures up to 152 kPa. The AMP concentrations in the ternary (solvent) mixture were (2 and 3) kmol · m^?3; those of PZ’s were (0.5, 1.0, and 1.5) kmol · m^?3. The measured equilibrium loading (solubility)/partial pressure pairs at different temperatures and concentration levels were generally consistent with the corresponding values correlated from the Kent–Eisenberg model that has been adapted for the system in the study, where the parameters of the models were determined using the results from this study and relevant data from literature.     

High-pressure phase behavior of CO2 + 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride system

The phase behavior of carbon dioxide (CO₂) and the ionic liquid (IL) 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([bmim][Cl]) was measured and correlated at high pressures up to ∼40 MPa and at temperatures between 353.15 K and 373.15 K. The solubility data of CO₂ in [bmim][Cl] were obtained by observing the bubble point pressure at specific temperatures. A variable-volume view cell, which is a high-pressure equilibrium apparatus, was used to measure the CO₂ + [bmim][Cl] system solubility under varying pressure and temperature conditions. In addition, liquid–liquid–vapor (LLV) three-phase behavior was investigated using the equilibrium cell to be able to determine the classification of phase-behavior type by Scott and Van Konynenburg. Based on the LLV phase behavior, this system most likely has type III phase-behavior which is common for IL + CO₂ systems. The resulting data showed that CO₂ dissolved well in the IL at low CO₂ concentrations, but that the pressure derivative of CO₂ solubility dramatically decreased as the mole fraction of CO₂ was increased. The experimental data were well fitted by the Peng–Robinson equation of state with a quadratic mixing rule and cubic parameters estimated by the Joback method.     

Solubility of carbon dioxide in 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium 2-(2-methoxyethoxy) ethylsulfate

Experimental results for the solubility of carbon dioxide in the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium 2-(2-methoxyethoxy) ethylsulfate are not reported in the literature. To this end, we present in this work new solubility data for carbon dioxide in 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium 2-(2-methoxyethoxy) ethylsulfate for temperatures ranging from (303.2 to 343.2) K and pressures up to 6.7 MPa using a thermogravimetric microbalance. The carbon dioxide solubility was determined from absorption saturation (equilibrium) data at each fixed temperature and pressure. The buoyancy effect was accounted in the evaluation of the carbon dioxide solubility. Highly accurate equations of states for carbon dioxide and for ionic liquids were employed to determine the effect of buoyancy on carbon dioxide solubility. The solubility measurements are presented as a function of temperature and pressure. The present experimental solubility results have been successfully correlated using an extended Henry’s law equation.     

Solubility of carbon dioxide in aqueous solutions of diisopropanolamine and methyldiethanolamine

The solubility of carbon dioxide in aqueous solutions of alkanolamines was measured by means of two experimental methods. The solubility of carbon dioxide was measured at 298 K with a static total pressure apparatus in solutions of water + diisopropanolamine (DIPA) having mass fraction of DIPA equal to 10.1%, 11.0% and 33.9%. The density of the water + DIPA solution was measured continuously during the experiments to investigate the changes in density introduced by the absorption of carbon dioxide. A correlation for the density of CO₂-loaded aqueous solutions of DIPA is presented.     

Solubility of trifluoroethoxyphthalocyanines and -subphthalocyanines in liquid and supercritical carbon dioxide

In an analysis of the solubility of a wide range of phthalocyanines (Pcs) and its analogues (SubPcs) in liquid and/or supercritical CO₂, compounds with trifluoroethoxy substituents were found to exhibit high solubility. To our knowledge, this is the first example of Pc compounds soluble in 100% CO₂. This unprecedented unique property of trifluoroethoxy substituted Pcs might have particular applications in catalysis in organic reactions as well as dyes for solar cells by CO₂ delivering coatings.     

Isobaric (vapour + liquid) equilibrium for (2-propanol + water + ammonium thiocyanate): Fitting the data by an empirical equation

Isobaric (vapour + liquid) equilibrium (VLE) data for {2-propanol (1) + water (2) + ammonium thiocyanate (3)} were obtained at 101.3 kPa experimentally. An all-glass Fischer-Labodest type still capable of handling pressures from (0.25 to 400) kPa and temperatures up to 523.15 K was used. (Vapour + liquid) equilibrium data of (2-propanol + water) were also obtained at 101.3 kPa experimentally. An equation is proposed to fit the data of salt-containing systems using dimensionless groups called relative ratio. The proposed model was also tested for the salt-containing systems given from the literature.     

High-pressure phase equilibria in the carbon dioxide + pyrrole system

Liquid–vapor (LV) and liquid–liquid (LL) phase equilibria in the carbon dioxide + pyrrole system were measured at temperatures between 313 K and 333 K, and pressures between 8.4 MPa and 15.1 MPa. The data were used to predict the overall phase behavior of the system using the Patel–Teja equation of state and the Mathias–Klotz–Prausnitz mixing rules with two temperature-independent parameters. The calculations suggest that the carbon dioxide + pyrrole system may exhibit type IV phase behavior according to the classification of Scott and van Konynenburg.     

Solubility and density measurements of palmitic acid in supercritical carbon dioxide + alcohol mixtures

Solubility data of palmitic acid (hexadecanoic acid) in supercritical carbon dioxide were measured in the pressure range from 10 to 25 MPa at temperatures of 313 and 318 K. Densities for this binary mixture in the homogeneous phase and at saturation conditions were measured in the same range of temperature. The influence of 3 and 6 mol% ethanol and 2-propanol as co-solvent on the solubility and density data for the CO₂ + palmitic acid mixture was also determined at 313 K. Measurements were carried out in a static-synthetic sapphire cell coupled to a vibrating-tube densitometer. The self-consistency of the data was tested according to the density-based models proposed by Mendez-Santiago and Teja.     

Solubility of carbon dioxide in pentaerythritol tetraoctanoate

In this paper, solubility measurements of CO₂ in pure pentaerythritol tetraoctanoate (PEC8) between 273 and 343 K are presented. The experiments were performed according to the static, synthetic method. The data are represented using the Peng–Robinson equation of state with the Huron–Vidal mixing rules and the UNIQUAC equation for the excess Gibbs Energy (g^E) at infinite pressure. This system shows immiscibility in liquid phase, with lower critical end point (LCEP) at T = 268 ± 0.1 K and xCO₂=0.98±0.001$x_{\text{C}{\text{O}}_2}=0.98\pm 0.001$ and upper critical end point (UCEP) at the critical point of pure CO₂.     

Phase behavior of the system hyperbranched polyglycerol + methanol + carbon dioxide

Phase equilibrium data have been measured for the ternary system hyperbranched polyglycerol + methanol + carbon dioxide at temperatures of 313–450 K and pressures up to 13.5 MPa. Phase changes were determined according to a synthetic method using the Cailletet setup. At elevated temperatures the system shows a liquid–liquid–vapor region with lower solution temperatures. Besides the vapor–liquid and liquid–liquid equilibria, the vapor–liquid to vapor–liquid–liquid and vapor–liquid–liquid to liquid–liquid phase boundaries are reported at different polymer molar masses and can serve as test sets for thermodynamic models. A distinct influence of the polymer molar mass on the vapor–liquid equilibrium can be noticed and indicates the existence of structural effects due to the polymer branching. Modeling the systems with the PCP-SAFT equation of state confirms these findings.
