Correlation of Vapor-Liquid Equilibria for Commonly Used Binary Systems in Supercritical Fluid Extraction Processes

Determination of Binary Vapor Liquid Equilibria (vle) of Reactive Systems

The simulation of reactive distillation processes requires binary phase equilibrium data and information about the reaction kinetics and equilibrium. The phase equilibrium data for the binary reacting sub-systems are difficult to measure experimentally since the products of reaction affect the binary equilibrium as soon as they are formed. A novel apparatus has been constructed to measure these...

Prediction of Liquid-Liquid Equilibria of Binary Systems Containing Alcohols Using EoS-GE Models

Optimizing Supercritical Fluid Extraction Systems

Supercritical fluid extraction systems can be configured in a number of different ways and the operating conditions can span the full continuum of temperatures and pressures. Every combination presents differing solubilities and mass transfer behaviour and results in different cost. Optimal conditions for processing are rarely coincident with optimal conditions for maximum solubility. For a typ...

Effect of three-body interactions on the vapor-liquid phase equilibria of binary fluid mixtures.

Gibbs-Duhem Monte Carlo simulations are reported for the vapor-liquid phase coexistence of binary argon+krypton mixtures at different temperatures. The calculations employ accurate two-body potentials in addition to contributions from three-body dispersion interactions resulting from third-order triple-dipole interactions. A comparison is made with experiment that illustrates the role of three-...

Prediction of Vapor-Liquid Equilibria Using CEOS /GE Models

The present study investigates the use of different GE mixing rules in cubic equations of state for prediction of phase behavior of multicomponent hydrocarbon systems. To predict VLE data in multicomponent symmetric and asymmetric mixtures such as systems that contain light gases (nitrogen, carbon dioxide, etc.) and heavy hydrocarbons, the SRK equation of state has been combined with excess Gib...
