Liquid—Liquid Equilibria for the Water-ethanol-methyl Ethyl Ketone Ternary System at 298.15 and 318.15 K

Abstract

Ternary liquid—liquid equilibrium data for the system water-ethanol-methyl ethyl ketone were obtained at 298.15 and 318.15 K. Data for the binodal curves have been determined by the cloud-point method and conjugate points on tie-lines were determined by gas-chromatographic analysis. Tie-line data at each temperature were satisfactorily correlated by the Othmer and Tobias' method and the plait points coordinates were estimated. The experimental data were also fitted with the UNIFAC group contribution method for the activity coefficients using the isoactivity conditions as restraint equations and with the NRTL and UNIQUAC models.     

Liquid–Liquid Equilibria of the Methanol + Ethylbenzene + Methylcyclohexane Ternary System at 278.15, 283.15, and 293.15 K

Liquid–liquid equilibria of the methanol + ethylbenzene + methylcyclohexane ternary system are reported at 278.15, 283.15, and 293.15 K. The effect of the temperature on the liquid–liquid equilibrium is discussed. All chemical concentrations were quantified by gas chromatography using a thermal conductivity detector. Experimental data for the ternary system are compared with values calculated by the NRTL and UNIQUAC equations. It was found that both equations gave comparable quality representations of the experimental data for this ternary system. Distribution curves were also analyzed. Data for the ternary system is available from the literature at 303.15 K.     

Liquid–Liquid Equilibrium Data for 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Acetate–Thiophene–Diesel Compound: Experiments and Correlations

Extraction of thiophene from cyclohexane, isooctane and toluene were performed using the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate ([EMIM][OAc]) at T=298.15 K. The liquid?Cliquid equilibrium (LLE) experiments were performed on three systems, namely: [EMIM][OAc]?Cthiophene?Ccyclohexane, [EMIM][OAc]?Cthiophene?Cisooctane and [EMIM][OAc]?Cthiophene?Ctoluene. The LLE data showed that [EMIM][OAc] has a higher selectivity at low concentration of thiophene and also showed that the hydrocarbon-rich phase is free of ionic liquid. This implies that there will be no cross contamination and the ionic liquid will be a non-pollutant in fuel after extraction. Further, the amount of hydrocarbon in the ionic-liquid-rich phase is very small. This implies that ionic liquid can be regenerated with negligible loss of fuel. LLE data was then correlated using the NRTL and UNIQUAC models. These showed root mean square deviation (RMSD) values of 0.82?% and 1.46?% for the isooctane system, 1.37?% and 1.57?% for the cyclohexane system and 1.39?% and 1.53?% for the toluene system.

Chemical Equilibrium for the Reacting System Acetic Acid–Ethanol–Ethyl Acetate–Water at 303.15 K, 313.15 K and 323.15 K

The chemical equilibrium (CE) for the quaternary reacting system ethanol–acetic acid–ethyl acetate–water was studied at 303.15, 313.15 and 323.15 K and atmospheric pressure. The CE compositions were determined by gas chromatography and nuclear magnetic resonance analytical methods. The thermodynamic constants of CE at 303.15, 313.15 and 323.15 K were calculated based on the obtained experimental data with the use of the NRTL model.     

Liquid–Liquid Equilibrium of Water + 1-Butanol + Inorganic Salt Systems at 303.15, 313.15 and 323.15 K: Experiments and Correlation

Liquid–liquid equilibria (LLE) and tie-line data of systems containing 1-butanol, water and NaCl, Na₂SO₄, NH₄Cl or (NH₄)₂SO₄ were investigated at 303.15, 313.15 and 323.15 K and atmospheric pressure. The salt decreases mutual solubilities of these two solvents leading to a higher degree of phase separation at equilibrium. The effect is more pronounced at high salt concentration. Temperature in the studied range had a minor effect on LLE behavior of these mixtures. Experimental data were correlated using a modified extended UNIQUAC model. Satisfactory agreement between the calculated and measured mass fractions of the components was achieved.

Isothermal Vapor–Liquid Equilibria for the Ternary System 2-Propanol + Tetrahydrofuran + 1-Chlorobutane at 25°C

Isothermal vapor–liquid equilibria (VLE) for mixtures containing 2-propanol + tetrahydrofuran + 1-chlorobutane have been measured using a modified version of a Boublik–Benson still at 25°C. A test of thermodynamic consistency, like the McDermott–Ellis method was applied to the activity coefficients. Excess molar Gibbs free energies were calculated over the entire range composition. Different expressions existing in the literature were used to predict activity coefficients.     

Measurements of the Solid–Liquid Equilibria in the Quaternary System NaCl–NaBr–Na2SO4–H2O at 323 K

Phase equilibria of the quaternary NaCl–NaBr–Na₂SO₄–H₂O system at 323 K were studied by the isothermal dissolution equilibrium method. The solubilities of salts and densities of saturated solutions were determined. Solid solutions [Na(Cl, Br)] were found in the experiments. The phase diagram of the quaternary system has no invariant point, but has one univariant curve at the boundary of Na(Cl, Br) and Na₂SO₄ crystallization fields. The experimental results show that an increase of the NaBr concentration is accompanied by an obvious increase of the solution density and the decrease of the solubilities of NaCl and Na₂SO₄.

Experimental Study of Vapor–Liquid Equilibrium Data for Acetone + Methanol + 1-Methyl-3-octylimidazolium Thiocyanate

An experimental study on the isobaric vapor–liquid equilibria for the ternary system of acetone?+?methanol?+?1-methyl-3-octylimidazolium thiocyanate ([Omim][SCN]) as well as the two acetone?+?ionic liquid (IL) and methanol?+?IL binary systems was performed at 100 kPa using a recirculating still (VLE 602 Fischer apparatus). A low IL mole fraction of 0.027 was found to be sufficient break the azeotrope due to the high and specific interactions with acetone and methanol. The nonrandom two-liquid model was used to represent the experimental data. The results are compared with those in the literature for the same mixed solvent system using other ILs.     

Dispersive Liquid–Liquid Microextraction and Micro-Solid Phase Extraction for the Rapid Determination of Metals in Food and Environmental Waters

A rapid and novel two-step dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction and dispersive micro-solid phase extraction method was established for the separation and enrichment of trace cadmium, nickel, and copper in food and environmental water prior to determination by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). In the first microextraction step, carbon tetrachloride was employed to extract metal-diethyldithiocarbamate chelates from aqueous solution with ultrasound. In the following step, Fe₃O₄ magnetic nanoparticles were added and used to collect the analytes in the organic solvent. The sample pH, type and volume of extraction solvent, mass of magnetic nanoparticles, concentration of the chelating agent, concentration of sodium chloride, and sonication time were optimized. The linear dynamic range was from 0.01 to 20 micrograms per liter with correlation coefficients between 0.9990 and 0.9992. Enrichment factors were 78, 79, and 81 for cadmium, nickel, and copper, respectively. The limits of detection for cadmium, nickel, and copper were 0.007, 0.009, and 0.017 micrograms per liter, with relative standard deviations from 1.1 to 2.6 percent. The developed method was validated by the determination of cadmium, nickel, and copper in rice and mussel certified reference materials, food, and environmental water with satisfactory results.     

Magnetic Solid-Phase Extraction and Ionic Liquid Dispersive Liquid–Liquid Microextraction Coupled with High-Performance Liquid Chromatography for the Determination of Hexachlorophene in Cosmetics

An efficient, simple, and fast method based on ionic liquid dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (IL-DLLME) followed by magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) was developed as a new technique for extracting and purifying hexachlorophene (HCP) in cosmetics prior to high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) determination. In this method based on IL-DLLME and MSPE, 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([C₆MIM][PF₆]) is used as the extraction solvent and Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles are used to remove hydrophobic additives in the cosmetics by physical adsorption. The main parameters affecting the efficiency of the IL-DLLME and MSPE of HCP were investigated and optimized. Under the optimum conditions, the method was linear in the range 0.5–40 µg mL^?1 with a correlation coefficient (R ²) of 0.9976 and had a detection limit of 0.14 µg mL^?1 at a signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) of 3. The recoveries of HCP in three cosmetic samples using the proposed method were in the range 74.5–97.7%, and the relative standard deviations (RSD, n = 5) were in the range 3.8–6.7%. The developed method was successfully applied to the determination of HCP in cosmetics.
