Isobaric (vapor + liquid) equilibria of the binary system maleic anhydride and diethyl phthalate at p = (2.67, 5.33, and 8.00) kPa

Saturated vapor pressures of pure diethyl phthalate were measured with the ebulliometer. And isobaric (vapor + liquid) equilibrium data for the binary system (maleic anhydride + diethyl phthalate) at p = (2.67, 5.33, and 8.00) kPa were determined using the ebulliometric method. The parameters of the NRTL model for the binary system were obtained by calculating equilibrium compositions of the liquid and vapor phase with the experimental equilibrium temperatures, pressures and feed compositions. Moreover, (vapor + liquid) equilibrium data for the binary system were predicted by use of the UNIFAC model. Predicted results were compared with those from the ebulliometric method, and showed good agreement.     

Isothermal and isobaric (vapour + liquid) equilibria of (N,N- dimethylformamide + 2-propanol + 1-butanol)

The isothermal and isobaric (vapour  +  liquid) equilibria (v.l.e.) for (N, N - dimethylformamide  +  2-propanol  +  1-butanol) and the binary constituent mixtures were measured with an inclined ebulliometer.

The experimental (liquid + liquid) equilibrium (LLE) properties for two ternary systems containing (N-formylmorpholine + benzene + n-hexane), (sulfolane + benzene + n-hexane) and a quaternary mixed solvent system (sulfolane + N-formylmorpholine + benzene + n-hexane) were measured at temperature ranging from (298.15 to 318.15) K and at an atmospheric pressure. The experimental distribution coefficients and selectivity factors are presented to evaluate the efficiency of the solvents for extraction of benzene from n-hexane. The LLE results obtained indicate that increasing temperature decreases selectivity for all solvents. The LLE results for the systems studied were used to obtain binary interaction parameters in the UNIQUAC model by minimizing the root mean square deviations (RMSD) between the experimental and calculated results. Using the interaction parameters obtained, the phase equilibria in the systems were calculated and plotted. The calculated compositions based on the UNIQUAC model were found to be in good agreement with the experimental values. The result of the RMSD obtained by comparing the calculated and experimental two-phase compositions is 0.0163 for (N-formylmorpholine + benzene + n-hexane) system and is 0.0120 for (sulfolane + benzene + n-hexane) system.

Precise excess volumes of mixing measurements at T = 313.15 K are reported over the whole composition range for binary mixtures: (N,N-dimethylacetamide + water), (N,N-dimethylacetamide + methanol), (N,N-dimethylacetamide + ethanol) and for the ternary mixtures (N,N-dimethylacetamide + methanol + water) and (N,N-dimethylacetamide + ethanol + water). For all the systems, large negative deviations from ideality are observed. The binary results have been fitted using the Redlich–Kister type polynomial. The possibility of predicting the ternary results from the binary ones was examined.     

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.     

Volumetric properties of ternary (IL + 2-propanol or 1-butanol or 2-butanol + ethyl acetate) systems and binary (IL + 2-propanol or 1-butanol or 2-butanol) and (1-butanol or 2-butanol + ethyl acetate) systems

The experimental densities for the binary or ternary systems were determined at T = (298.15, 303.15, and 313.15) K. The ionic liquid methyl trioctylammonium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([MOA]⁺[Tf₂N]⁻) was used for three of the five binary systems studied. The binary systems were ([MOA]⁺[Tf₂N]⁻ + 2-propanol or 1-butanol or 2-butanol) and (1-butanol or 2-butanol + ethyl acetate). The ternary systems were {methyl trioctylammonium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide + 2-propanol or 1-butanol or 2-butanol + ethyl acetate}. The binary and ternary excess molar volumes for the above systems were calculated from the experimental density values for each temperature. The Redlich–Kister smoothing polynomial was fitted to the binary excess molar volume data. Virial-Based Mixing Rules were used to correlate the binary excess molar volume data. The binary excess molar volume results showed both negative and positive values over the entire composition range for all the temperatures.The ternary excess molar volume data were successfully correlated with the Cibulka equation using the Redlich–Kister binary parameters.     

(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.     

Isobaric (vapor + liquid) equilibrium data for the binary system methanol + 2-butyl alcohol and the quaternary system methyl acetate + methanol + 2-butyl alcohol + 2-butyl acetate at P = 101.33 kPa

In this paper, isobaric (vapor + liquid) equilibrium (VLE) data for the binary system methanol + 2-butyl alcohol and the quaternary system methyl acetate + methanol + 2-butyl alcohol + 2-butyl acetate were determined at P = 101.33 kPa in a modified Rose still. The binary VLE data were found to be thermodynamic consistency by the Herrington method. The VLE data for the binary system were correlated by the Wilson and NRTL equations respectively, which were used to predict the VLE data of the quaternary system. The results showed that the Wilson and NRTL models matched well with the (vapor + liquid) phase equilibrium data. The deviations for the vapor-phase compositions and the equilibrium temperatures are reasonably small and the models are both suitable for these systems.

The NRTL parameters for the binary system of (water + TMP-1) were fitted to a binary LLE data set from literature. NRTL parameters for the binary system of (water + methanol) were taken from ASPEN PLUS. The LLE for the ternary system was modeled by the three binary NRTL interaction parameters systems. The binary and ternary models were compared against the measured data.     

Thermodynamic properties of (tetradecane + benzene, + toluene, + chlorobenzene, + bromobenzene, + anisole) binary mixtures at T = (298.15, 303.15, and 308.15) K

Density ρ, viscosity η, and refractive index n_D, values for (tetradecane + benzene, + toluene, + chlorobenzene, + bromobenzene, + anisole) binary mixtures over the entire range of mole fraction have been measured at temperatures (298.15, 303.15, and 308.15) K at atmospheric pressure. The speed of sound u has been measured at T = 298.15 K only. Using these data, excess molar volume V^E, deviations in viscosity Δη, Lorentz–Lorenz molar refraction ΔR, speed of sound Δu, and isentropic compressibility Δk_s have been calculated. These results have been fitted to the Redlich and Kister polynomial equation to estimate the binary interaction parameters and standard deviations. Excess molar volumes have exhibited both positive and negative trends in many mixtures, depending upon the nature of the second component of the mixture. For the (tetradecane + chlorobenzene) binary mixture, an incipient inversion has been observed. Calculated thermodynamic quantities have been discussed in terms of intermolecular interactions between mixing components.     

(Liquid + liquid) equilibria of three ternary systems: (heptane + benzene + N-formylmorpholine), (heptane + toluene + N-formylmorpholine), (heptane + xylene + N-formylmorpholine) from T = (298.15 to 353.15) K

(Liquid + liquid) equilibrium (LLE) data for ternary systems: (heptane + benzene + N-formylmorpholine), (heptane + toluene + N-formylmorpholine), and (heptane + xylene + N-formylmorpholine) have been determined experimentally at temperatures ranging from 298.15 K to 353.15 K. Complete phase diagrams were obtained by determining solubility and tie-line data. Tie-line compositions were correlated by Othmer–Tobias and Bachman methods. The universal quasichemical activity coefficient (UNIQUAC) and the non-random two liquids equation (NRTL) were used to predict the phase equilibrium in the system using the interaction parameters determined from experimental data. It is found that UNIQUAC and NRTL used for LLE could provide a good correlation. Distribution coefficients, separation factors, and selectivity were evaluated for the immiscibility region.     

Experimental and theoretical study of quaternary (liquid + liquid) equilibria for mixtures of (methanol or water + ethanol + toluene + n-decane)

Experimental (liquid + liquid) equilibrium data were obtained for the extraction of toluene from n-decane by mixed-solvents (ethanol + water) and (ethanol + methanol) at three temperatures (298.15, 303.15, and 313.15) K and ambient pressure.The measured tie-line data for two quaternary mixtures of {(ethanol +  water) + toluene + n-decane} and {(ethanol + methanol) + toluene + n-decane} are presented. The experimental quaternary (liquid + liquid) equilibrium data have been correlated using the NRTL activity coefficient model to obtain the binary interaction parameters of these components. The NRTL models predict the equilibrium compositions of the quaternary mixtures with small deviations. The partition coefficients and the selectivity factor of the mixed-solvents used were calculated and presented. From our experimental and calculated results, we conclude that for the extraction of toluene from n-decane mixtures the mixed-solvent (ethanol + methanol) has a higher selectivity factor than the other mixed-solvent at the three temperatures studied.

The loading factors Z, extraction efficiency E and overall particular distribution coefficients were determined. All measurements were carried out at T = 298.15 K. The obtained results and the observed phenomena were discussed by taking into consideration the mechanism of extraction and the concentration of the interaction product in the aqueous phase.
