Phase equilibrium properties of binary and ternary systems containing di-isopropyl ether + 1-butanol + benzene at 313.15 K

(Vapour + liquid) equilibria data of (di-isopropyl ether + 1-butanol + benzene), (di-isopropyl ether + 1-butanol) and (1-butanol + benzene) have been measured at T = 313.15 K using an isothermal total pressure cell. Data reduction by Barker’s method provides correlations for the excess molar Gibbs energy using the Margules equation for the binary systems and the Wohl expansion for the ternary. The Wilson, NRTL and UNIQUAC models have been applied successfully to both the binary and the ternary systems reported here.     

Phase equilibria properties of binary and ternary systems containing di-isopropyl ether + isobutanol + benzene at 313.15 K

Isothermal vapour–liquid equilibrium data have been measured for the ternary system (di-isopropyl ether + isobutanol + benzene) and two of the binary systems involved (di-isopropyl ether + isobutanol) and (isobutanol + benzene) at 313.15 K. A static technique consisting of an isothermal total pressure cell was used for the measurements.

Wilson, NRTL and UNIQUAC models have been applied successfully to both the binary and the ternary systems.     

Excess enthalpies of ether + alcohol + hydrocarbon mixtures: Binary and ternary mixtures containing dibutyl ether (DBE), 1-butanol and benzene at 298.15 K and 313.15 K

Experimental excess molar enthalpies of the ternary systems dibutyl ether (DBE) + 1-butanol + benzene and the corresponding binary systems at T = 298.15 K and T = 313.15 K at atmospheric pressure are reported. A quasi-isothermal flow calorimeter has been used to make the measurements. All the binary and the ternary systems show endothermic character. The experimental data for the binary and ternary systems have been fitted using the Redlich-Kister equation and the NRTL and UNIQUAC models. The values of the standard deviation indicate good agreement between the experimental results and those calculated from the equations.

Isothermal vapor–liquid equilibrium at 333.15 K and excess molar volumes at 298.15 K for the ternary system di-isopropyl ether + n-propyl alcohol + toluene and its binary subsystems

Isothermal vapor–liquid equilibrium data at 333.15 K are reported for the ternary system di-isopropyl ether (DIPE) + n-propyl alcohol + toluene and the binary subsystems DIPE + n-propyl alcohol, DIPE + toluene and n-propyl alcohol + toluene by using headspace gas chromatography. The excess molar volumes at 298.15 K for the same binary and ternary systems were also determined by directly measured densities. The experimental binary and ternary vapor–liquid equilibrium data were correlated with different G^E models and the excess molar volumes were correlated with the Redlich–Kister equation for the binary systems and the Cibulka equation for the ternary system, respectively.     

Vapor–liquid equilibria for the ternary mixture of carbon dioxide + 1-propanol + propyl acetate at elevated pressures

Vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for the ternary mixture of carbon dioxide, 1-propanol and propyl acetate were measured in this study at 308.2, 313.2, and 318.2 K, and at pressures ranging from 4 to 10 MPa. A static type phase equilibrium apparatus with visual sapphire windows was used in the experimental measurements. New VLE data for CO₂ in the mixed solvent were presented. These ternary VLE data at elevated pressures were also correlated using either the modified Soave–Redlich–Kwong or Peng–Robinson equation of state (EOS), and by employing either the van der Waals one-fluid or Huron–Vidal mixing model. Satisfactory correlation results from both EOS models are reported with temperature-independent binary interaction parameters. It is observed that at 318.2 K and 10 MPa, 1-propanol may probably be separated from propyl acetate into the vapor phase at the entire concentration range in the presence of high pressure CO₂.     

(Liquid + liquid) equilibria for (water + 1-propanol + diisopropyl ether + octane,or methylbenzene,or heptane) systems at T = 298.15 K

(Liquid + liquid) equilibria (LLE) data were presented for one ternary system of {water + octane + diisopropyl ether (DIPE)} and three quaternary systems of (water + 1-propanol + DIPE + octane, or methylbenzene, or heptane) at T = 298.15 K and p = 100 kPa. The experimental LLE data were correlated with the modified and extended UNIQUAC models. Distribution coefficients were derived from the experimental LLE data to evaluate the solubility behavior of components in organic and aqueous phases.     

(Vapour + liquid) equilibria for the binary mixtures (1-propanol + dibromomethane,or + bromochloromethane,or + 1,2-dichloroethane or + 1-bromo-2-chloroethane) at T = 313.15 K

Isothermal (vapour + liquid) equilibria (VLE) at 313.15 K have been measured for liquid 1-propanol + dibromomethane, or + bromochloromethane or + 1,2-dichloroethane or + 1-bromo-2-chloroethane mixtures.The VLE data were reduced using the Redlich–Kister equation taking into consideration the vapour phase imperfection in terms of the 2nd molar virial coefficients. The excess molar Gibbs free energies of all the studied mixtures are positive and ranging from 794 J · mol⁻¹ for (1-propanol + bromochloromethane) and 1052 J · mol⁻¹ for (1-propanol + 1-bromo-2-chloroethane), at x = 0.5. The experimental results are compared with modified UNIFAC predictions.     

Thermodynamics of fuels with a bio-synthetic component (IV): (Vapor + liquid) equilibrium data for the ternary mixture (ethyl 1,1-dimethylethyl ether + 1-hexene + toluene) at T = 313.15 K

The paper reports experimental p–x data for the ternary system (ethyl 1,1-dimethylethyl ether + 1-hexene + toluene) at T = 313.15 K. The ether, synthesized from ethanol of biological origin, increases the interest of this compound as an additive for gasolines. An isothermal total pressure cell was used for the measurements. Data reduction by Barker’s method provides correlations for G^E, using Wilson, NRTL, UNIQUAC models and the Wohl expansion for the ternary system and the calculation of the vapor phase composition. Good results are obtained for the correlation by all the models.     

Excess Gibbs energies and excess molar volumes for binary mixtures: (2-pyrrolidone + water), (2-pyrrolidone + methanol), and (2-pyrrolidone + ethanol) at the temperature 313.15 K

Total vapour pressures and excess molar volumes, measured at the temperature 313.15 K, are reported for three binary mixtures (2-pyrrolidone + water), (2-pyrrolidone + methanol) and (2-pyrrolidone + ethanol). The results are compared with previously obtained data for binary mixtures (amide + A), where amide=N-methylformamide, N,N-dimethylformamide and N-methylacetamide, and A= water, methanol, and ethanol.

(Liquid + liquid) equilibrium tie-lines were measured for one ternary system {x₁H₂O + x₂(CH₃)₂CHOH + (1 − x₁ − x₂)CH₃C(CH₃)₂OCH₃} and one quaternary system {x₁H₂O + x₂(CH₃)₂CHOH + x₃CH₃C(CH₃)₂OCH₃ + (1 − x₁ − x₂ − x₃)(CH₃)₂CHOCH(CH₃)₂} at T = 298.15 K and P^∘ = 101.3 kPa. The experimental (liquid + liquid) equilibrium results were satisfactorily correlated by modified and extended UNIQUAC models both with ternary and quaternary parameters in addition to binary ones.

New experimental excess molar enthalpy data of the ternary systems (dibutyl ether + 1-propanol + benzene, or toluene), and the corresponding binary systems at T = (298.15 and 313.15) K at atmospheric pressure are reported. A quasi-isothermal flow calorimeter has been used to make the measurements. All the binary and ternary systems show endothermic character at both temperatures. The experimental data for the systems have been fitted using the Redlich–Kister rational equation. Considerations with respect the intermolecular interactions amongst ether, alcohol and hydrocarbon compounds are presented.     

(Liquid + liquid) equilibrium of (water + 2-propanol + 1-butanol + salt) systems at T = 313.15 K and T = 353.15 K: Experimental data and correlation

(Liquid + liquid) equilibrium data for the quaternary systems (water + 2-propanol + 1-butanol + potassium bromide) and (water + 2-propanol + 1-butanol + magnesium chloride) were measured at T = 313.15 K and T = 353.15 K. The overall salt concentrations were 5 and 10 mass percent. Ternary (liquid + liquid) equilibrium data for the salt-free system (water + 2-propanol + 1-butanol) were also determined and found to be in good agreement with data from the literature. The NRTL model for the activity coefficient was used to correlate the data. New interaction parameters were estimated, using the Simplex minimization method and a concentration-based objective function. The results are very satisfactory, with root mean square deviations between experimental and calculated compositions of both phases being less than 0.5%.     

Isobaric (vapour + liquid) equilibria for the (1-propanol + 1-butanol) binary mixture at (53.3 and 91.3) kPa

In this work, isobaric (vapour + liquid) equilibrium data have been determined at (53.3 and 91.3) kPa for the binary mixtures of (1-propanol + 1-butanol). The thermodynamic consistency of the experimental values was checked by means the traditional area test and the direct test methods. According to the criteria for the test methods, the (vapour + liquid) equilibrium results were found to be thermodynamically consistent. The experimental values obtained were correlated by using the van Laar, Margules, Wilson, NRTL, and UNIQUAC activity-coefficient models. The binary interaction parameters of the activity-coefficient models have been determined and reported. They have been compared with those calculated by the activity-coefficient models. The average absolute deviation in boiling point and vapour-phase composition were determined. The calculated maximum average absolute deviations were 0.86 K and 0.0151 for the boiling point and vapour-phase composition, respectively. Therefore, it was shown that the activity-coefficient models used satisfactorily correlate the (vapour + liquid) equilibrium results of the mixture studied. However, the performance of the UNIQUAC model was superior to all other models mentioned.     

Volumetric behavior of the ternary system (methyl tert-butyl ether + methylbenzene + butan-1-ol) and its binary sub-system (methyl tert-butyl ether + butan-1-ol) within the temperature range (298.15 to 328.15) K

Values of the density and speed of sound were measured for the ternary system (methyl tert-butyl ether + methylbenzene + butan-1-ol) within the temperature range (298.15 to 328.15) K at atmospheric pressure by a vibrating-tube densimeter DSA 5000. Two binary sub-systems were studied and published previously while the binary sub-system (methyl tert-butyl ether + butan-1-ol) is a new study in this work. Excess molar volume, adiabatic compressibility, and isobaric thermal expansivity were calculated from the experimental values of density and speed of sound. The excess quantities were correlated using the Redlich–Kister equation. The experimental excess molar volumes were analyzed by means of both the Extended Real Associated Solution (ERAS) model and the Peng–Robinson equation of state. The novelty of this work is the qualitative prediction of ternary excess molar volumes for the system containing auto-associative compound and two compounds that can hetero-associate. The combination of the ERAS model and Peng–Robinson equation of state could help to qualitatively estimate the real behavior of the studied systems because the experimental results lie between these two predictions.     

Total vapour pressure and excess Gibbs energy for binary mixtures of 1,1,2,2-tetrachlorethane or tetrachloroethene with benzene at nine temperatures

Vapour pressures of (benzene + 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane (TCANE)), or (benzene + tetrachloroethene (TCENE)) at nine temperatures between 283.15 and 323.15 K were measured by a static method. The reduction of the vapour pressures to obtain activity coefficients and excess molar Gibbs energies was carried out by fitting the vapour pressure data to the Redlich–Kister polynomial according to Barker's method. A comparative analysis about the thermodynamic behaviour of both systems is performed, taking into account the resonance effect in tetrachloroethene.     

Excess enthalpies and excess volumes of (2-methoxyethanol + 1,4-dioxane) and (1,2-dimethoxyethane + benzene) at temperatures between 283.15 K and 313.15 K

The measurement of excess enthalpies, H^E, at T=298.15 K and densities at temperatures between 283.15 K and 313.15 K are reported for the (2-methoxyethanol + 1,4-dioxane) and (1,2-dimethoxyethane + benzene) systems. The values of H^E and the excess volumes, V^E, are positive, and the temperature dependence of V^E is quite small for (2-methoxyethanol + 1,4-dioxane). The (1,2-dimethoxyethane + benzene) system shows a negative H^E and sigmoid curves in V^E, which change sign from positive to negative with an increase in 1,2-dimethoxyethane. The temperature dependence of V^E for this system is negative.     

Thermophysical properties of the binary mixtures (1,8-cineole + 1-alkanol) at T = (298.15 and 313.15) K and at atmospheric pressure

This work presents the measurements of the density, speed of sound, refractive index and enthalpy of binary mixtures containing {1,8-cineole + 1-alkanol (ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-butanol, and 1-pentanol)} at two temperatures (298.15 and 313.15) K and atmospheric pressure. The determination of excess molar volume, speed of sound deviation, refractive index deviation, molar refraction, molar refraction deviation, excess isentropic compressibility, and excess molar enthalpy are also given. Redlich–Kister equation was used to fit these derivate properties. The experimental data of the constituent binaries were analysed to discuss the nature and strengths of intermolecular interactions. Eventually some models, SAFT and PC-SAFT for density, Free Length and Collision Factor for speed of sound, Gladstone-Dale Arago-Biot for refractive index, and UNIFAC for excess molar enthalpy, among others, were successfully applied.     

Measurement of (liquid + liquid) equilibria for ternary systems of (N-formylmorpholine + benzene + cyclohexane) at temperatures (303.15, 308.15, and 313.15) K

This work demonstrates the ability of N-formylmorpholine (NFM) to act as an extraction solvent for the removal of benzene from its mixture with cyclohexane. The (liquid + liquid) equilibria (LLE) were measured for a ternary system of {N-formylmorpholine (NFM) + benzene + cyclohexane} under atmospheric pressure and at temperatures (303.15, 308.15, and 313.15) K. The experimental distribution coefficients (K) and selectivity factors (S) were obtained to reveal the extractive effectiveness of the solvent for separation of benzene from cyclohexane. The LLE results for the system studied indicate that increasing temperature decreases selectivity of the solvent. The reliability of the experimental results was tested by applying the Othmer–Tobias correlation. In addition, the universal quasichemical activity coefficient (UNIQUAC) and the non-random two liquids equation (NRTL) were used to correlate the LLE data using the interaction parameters determined from the experimental data. The root mean square deviations (RMSDs) obtained comparing calculated and experimental two-phase compositions are 0.0367 for the NRTL model and 0.0539 for the UNIQUAC model.
