Salt effect on (liquid + liquid) equilibrium of (water + tert-butanol + 1-butanol) system: Experimental data and correlation

(Liquid + liquid) equilibrium data for the quaternary systems (water + tert-butanol + 1-butanol + KBr) and (water + tert-butanol + 1-butanol + MgCl₂) were experimentally determined at T = 293.15 K and T = 313.15 K. For mixtures with KBr, the overall salt concentrations were 5 and 10 mass percent; for mixtures with MgCl₂, the overall salt concentrations were 2 and 5 mass percent. The experimental results were used to estimate molecular interaction parameters for the NRTL activity coefficient model, using the Simplex minimization method and a concentration-based objective function. The correlation results are extremely satisfactory, with deviations in phase compositions below 1.7%.     

(Liquid + liquid) equilibria of the (water + butyric acid + dodecanol) ternary system

(Liquid + liquid) equilibrium (LLE) data for the (water + butyric acid + dodecanol) ternary system have been determined experimentally at T = (298.2, 308.2 and 318.2) K. Complete phase diagrams were obtained by determining binodal curves and tie lines. The reliability of the experimental tie lines was confirmed by using the Othmer–Tobias correlation. The UNIFAC method was used to predict the phase equilibrium in the ternary system using the interaction parameters determined from experimental data of CH₃, CH₂, COOH, OH and H₂O functional groups. Distribution coefficients and separation factors were evaluated for the immiscibility region.     

Quaternary (liquid + liquid) equilibria for (water + 2-propanol + 1,1-dimethylethyl methyl ether + diisopropyl ether) at the temperature 298.15 K

(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.     

Solubility of CO2 in the solvent system (water + monoethanolamine + triethanolamine)

This report presents a new set of values for the solubility of carbon dioxide in the solvent system {water (1) + monoethanolamine (2) + triethanolamine (3)} at T = (313.2, 333.2, 353.2, and 373.2) K and CO₂ partial pressures ranging (1.0 to 120) kPa. The results are specific to solvent systems with the following compositions: (i) ω₂ = 0.24, ω₃ = 0.06, (ii) ω₂ = 0.18, ω₃ = 0.12, (iii) ω₂ = 0.12, ω₃ = 0.18, (iv) ω₂ = 0.06, ω₃ = 0.24, and (v) ω₂ = 0, ω₃ = 0.30, where ω refers to the mass fraction of the component. The results fit the Deshmukh and Mather model well.     

Densities and dynamic viscosities of the binary system (water + 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide) at different temperatures

Densities and viscosities were measured for pure ionic liquid [C₆mim][Br] (1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide) and the binary system (water + [C₆mim][Br]) at 0.1 MPa and in the (293.15 to 333.15) K range. The excess molar volume and viscosity deviation were calculated and correlated by Redlich–Kister polynomial expansions. The fitting parameters and the standard deviations were determined.     

Dynamic viscosities of the ternary liquid mixtures (dimethyl carbonate + methanol + ethanol) and (dimethyl carbonate + methanol + hexane) at several temperatures

Densities, ρ speeds of sound, u and dynamic viscosities, η of the ternary mixtures {dimethyl carbonate (DMC) + methanol + ethanol} and (dimethyl carbonate + methanol + hexane) were gathered at T = (293.15, 298.15, 308.15, and 313.15) K. From experimental data viscosity deviations, Δη of the ternary mixtures were evaluated. These results have been correlated using the Cibulka equation. The fitting parameters and the standard deviations of the ternary viscosity deviations are given. UNIFAC-VISCO group contribution method was used to predict the dynamic viscosities of the ternary mixtures at several temperatures.     

Physical properties of (jojoba oil + n-hexane) compared with other (vegetable oil + n-hexane) mixtures

Vapour pressures, densities, and viscosities of (jojoba oil + n-hexane) were measured and correlated over the temperature interval (298.15 to 318.15) K and used to calculate the activity coefficients of the components, excess thermodynamics functions, excess molar volumes, isobaric thermal expansibilities, excess viscosities, and the excess Gibbs free energies of activation for viscous flow. The reported results are compared with the corresponding values for commercial (oil + n-hexane) mixtures (cottonseed, soybean, sunflower, corn, olive, grape pip, Vaseline, and linalool oils) reported in the literature. As a by-product of this investigation, the vapour pressures of 1-methoxy-2-propanol from T = (298 to 392) K, 2-ethyl-6-methylaniline from T = (313 to 448) K, and N-methoxyisopropanol-6-ethyl-2-methylaniline from T = (407 to 535) K were measured using an ebulliometric method. A remarkable similarity between the excess properties for all oils is observed, but the behaviour of the excess thermodynamic functions in the case of (n-hexane + jojoba oil), especially in the n-hexane rich region, is quite different.     

Experimental (vapour + liquid) equilibrium data of (methanol + water), (water + glycerol) and (methanol + glycerol) systems at atmospheric and sub-atmospheric pressures

Experimental (vapour + liquid) equilibrium results for the binary systems, (methanol + water) at the local atmospheric pressure of 95.3 kPa and at sub-atmospheric pressures of (15.19, 29.38, 42.66, 56.03, and 67.38) kPa, (water + glycerol) system at pressures (14.19, 29.38, 41.54, 54.72, 63.84, and 95.3) kPa and the (methanol + glycerol) system at pressures (32.02 and 45.3) kPa were obtained over the entire composition range using a Sweitoslwasky-type ebulliometer. The relationship of the liquid composition (x₁) as a function of temperature (T) was found to be well represented by the Wilson model. Computed vapour phase mole fractions, activity coefficients and the measured values along with optimum Wilson parameters are presented.     

Modeling of the quaternary NaCl + KCl + CH3OH + H2O mixed electrolyte system: Binary and ternary mixing (ion + ion) and (ion + nonelectrolyte) interaction parameters

The purpose of this work is modeling of the quaternary system of mixed NaCl + KCl electrolyte in mixed CH₃OH + H₂O solvent, with different alcohol mass fractions by using particularly, the Pitzer (P) and Pitzer–Esteso (PE) equations and based on potentiometric measurement technique. The experimental data are obtained by different molal salt ratio r (r = m_NaCl/m_KCl = 100, 150, 200 and 250) in mixed solvent with different alcohol mass fractions x (x = 0.10, 0.20, 0.30, 0.40, and 0.50) in water. A galvanic cell is employed for collecting the potentiometric data by combining a Na⁺ glass membrane and Ag/AgCl electrodes and using different series of electrolyte solutions, at defined constant ionic strengths, with the molality ranging from 0.0005 up to 3.5 mol · kg⁻¹, at T = 298.15 ± 0.05 K of experiments. Comparison of the models shows that the modified Pitzer equation by Esteso (PE) present a better fit of the experimental data.     

Ternary and quaternary (liquid + liquid) equilibria for (water + ethanol + α-pinene, +β-pinene,or +limonene) and (water + ethanol + α-pinene + limonene) at the temperature 298.15 K

(Liquid + liquid) equilibria and tie-lines for the ternary (water + ethanol + α-pinene, or β-pinene or limonene) and quaternary (water + ethanol + α-pinene + limonene) mixtures have been measured at T = 298.15 K. The experimental multicomponent (liquid + liquid) equilibrium data have been successfully represented in terms of the modified UNIQUAC model with binary parameters.     

Physicochemical properties of {1-methyl piperazine (1) + water (2)} system at T = (298.15 to 343.15) K and atmospheric pressure

Densities (ρ) and viscosities (η) of aqueous 1-methylpiperazine (1-MPZ) solutions are reported at T = (298.15 to 343.15) K. Refractive indices (n_D) are reported at T = (293.15 to 333.15) K, and surface tensions (γ) are reported at T = (298.15 to 333.15) K. Derived excess properties, except excess viscosities (Δη), are found to be negative over the entire composition range. The addition of 1-MPZ reduces drastically the surface tension of water. The temperature dependence of surface tensions is explained in terms of surface entropy (S^S) and enthalpy (H^S). The measured and derived properties are used to probe the microscopic liquid structure of the bulk and surface of the aqueous amine solutions.     

Thermodynamics of the ternary systems: (water + glycine,l-alanine and l-serine + di-ammonium hydrogen citrate) from volumetric,compressibility, and (vapour + liquid) equilibria measurements

The apparent molar volumes and isentropic compressibility of glycine, l-alanine and l-serine in water and in aqueous solutions of (0.500 and 1.00) mol · kg^?1 di-ammonium hydrogen citrate {(NH₄)₂HCit} and those of (NH₄)₂HCit in water have been obtained over the (288.15 to 313.15) K temperature range at 5 K intervals at atmospheric pressure from measurements of density and ultrasonic velocity. The apparent molar volume and isentropic compressibility values at infinite dilution of the investigated amino acids have been obtained and their variations with temperature and their transfer properties from water to aqueous solutions of (NH₄)₂HCit have also been obtained. The results have been interpreted in terms of the hydration of the amino acids. In the second part of this work, water activity measurements by the isopiestic method have been carried out on the aqueous solutions of {glycine + (NH₄)₂HCit}, {alanine + (NH₄)₂HCit}, and {serine + (NH₄)₂HCit} at T = 298.15 K at atmospheric pressure. From these measurements, values of vapour pressure, osmotic coefficient, activity coefficient and Gibbs free energy were obtained. The effect of the type of amino acids on the (vapour + liquid) equilibrium of the systems investigated has been studied. The experimental water activities have been correlated successfully with the segment-based local composition Wilson model. Furthermore, the thermodynamic behaviour of the ternary solutions investigated has been studied by using the semi-ideal hydration model and the linear concentration relations have been tested by comparing with the isopiestic measurements for the studied systems at T = 298.15 K.     

A mass spectrometric investigation of the vaporisation behaviour in the (U + Pu + O) system

The vaporisation behaviour of (U, Pu)O₂ mixed oxides (Pu/M = 0.25, 0.50 and 0.75, with M = U + Pu) was studied by means of mass spectrometry. Hyperstoichiometric samples were heated in a Knudsen cell up to T = 2300 K. The evolution of the uranium and plutonium bearing gaseous species was studied as a function of time in order to evaluate the congruent vapour composition. Ionisation efficiency measurements were performed and the partial pressures of the gaseous species involved in the vaporisation process were determined. The vapour pressure has also been calculated using a thermochemical model for the (U + Pu + O) system. A quasi congruent composition with respect to the O/M ratio has been assumed, in agreement with the experiments. Nevertheless, the evaluation of all the experimental and calculated results shows that a total congruent composition exists for a single composition of the mixed oxide (MOX) samples with a Pu/M content slightly lower than 0.50. A good agreement is obtained between the calculated and experimental vapour pressure data, as well as the quasi congruent vaporisation compositions.     

Isothermal (vapour + liquid) equilibrium at several temperatures of (1-chlorobutane + 1-butanol,or 2-methyl-2-propanol)

Vapour pressures of (1-chlorobutane  +  1-butanol, or 2-methyl-2-propanol) at several temperatures between T =  278.15 and T =  323.15 K were measured by a static method. 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 equation according to Barker’s method. For (1-chlorobutane  +  2-methyl-2-propanol) azeotropic mixtures with a minimum boiling temperature were observed over the whole temperature range.     

(Vapour + liquid) equilibria for (2,2-dimethoxypropane + methanol) and (2,2-dimethoxypropane + acetone)

The isothermal and isobaric (vapour + liquid) equilibria for (2,2-dimethoxypropane + methanol) and (2,2-dimethoxypropane + acetone) measured with an inclined ebulliometer are presented. The experimental results are analysed using the UNIQUAC equation with the temperature-dependent binary parameters with satisfactory results. Isobaric (vapour + liquid) equilibria data for these systems at p=99.99 kPa are compared with the literature data. Experimental vapour pressure of 2,2-dimethoxypropane are also included.     

(Vapour + liquid) equilibrium in (N,N-dimethylacetamide + ethanol + water) at the temperature 313.15 K

Total vapour pressures, measured at the temperature 313.15 K, are reported for the ternary mixture (N,N-dimethylacetamide + ethanol + water), and for binary constituent (N,N-dimethylacetamide + ethanol). The present results are also compared with previously obtained data for (amide + ethanol) binary mixtures, where amide = N-methylformamide, N,N-dimethylformamide, N-methylacetamide, 2-pyrrolidinone, and N-methylpyrrolidinone. We found that excess Gibbs free energy of mixing for binary (amide + ethanol) mixtures varies roughly linearly with the molar volume of amide.     

Density,viscosity, isothermal (vapour + liquid) equilibrium,excess molar volume,viscosity deviation,and their correlations for chloroform + methyl isobutyl ketone binary system

Density and viscosity measurements for pure chloroform and methyl isobutyl ketone at T = (283.15, 293.15, 303.15, and 313.15) K as well as for the binary system {x₁ chloroform + (1 − x₁) methyl isobutyl ketone} at the same temperatures were made over the whole concentration range. The experimental results were fitted to empirical equations, which permit the calculation of these properties over the whole concentration and temperature ranges studied. Data of the binary mixture were further used to calculate the excess molar volume and viscosity deviation. The (vapour + liquid) equilibrium (VLE) at T = 303.15 K for this binary system was also measured in order to calculate the activity coefficients and the excess molar Gibbs energy. This binary system shows no azeotrope and negative deviations from ideal behaviour. The excess or deviation properties were fitted to the Redlich–Kister polynomial relation to obtain their coefficients and standard deviations.     

(Liquid + liquid) equilibrium of {water + phenol + (1-butanol,or 2-butanol,or tert-butanol)} systems

(Liquid + liquid) equilibrium (LLE) and binodal curve data were determined for the systems (water + phenol + tert-butanol) at T = 298.15 K, (water + phenol + 2-butanol) and (water + phenol + 1-butanol) at T = 298.15 K and T = 313.15 K by the combined techniques of densimetry and refractometry. Type I curve (for tert-butanol) and Type II curves (for 1- and 2-butanol) were found. The data were correlated with the NRTL model and the parameters estimated present root mean square deviations below 2% for the system with tert-butanol and lower than 0.8% for the other systems.     

(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.     

Thermodynamic study of the system (LiCl + LiNO3 + H2O)

The solubility of the binary system (LiNO₃ + H₂O) from T = 273.15 K to T = 333.15 K and solubility isotherms of the ternary system (LiCl + LiNO₃ + H₂O) were elaborately measured at T = 273.15 K and T = 323.15 K. These solubility data, as well as water activities in the binary systems from the literature, were treated by an empirically modified BET model. The isotherms of the ternary system (LiCl + LiNO₃ + H₂O) were reproduced and a complete phase diagram of the ternary system in the temperature range from 273.15 K to 323.15 K predicted. It is shown that the solubility data for the binary system (LiNO₃ + H₂O) measured in this work are slightly different from the literature data. Simulated results showed that the saturated salt solution of (2.8LiCl + LiNO₃) is in equilibrium with the stable solid phase LiNO₃(s) over the temperature range from 283.15 K to 323.15 K, other than the solid phases LiNO₃ · 3H₂O(s) and LiClH₂O(s) as reported by Iyoki et al. [S. Iwasaki, Y. Kuriyama. T. Uemura, J. Chem. Eng. Data 38 (1993) 396–398].
