This paper describes a properties-optimization work for the working fluids in NH3 / ionic liquid (ILs) based singleeffect absorption heat pumps. The optimum parameters of the IL can be used as criteria in screening task-specified ILs, which play the role of absorbents, in absorption heat pumps. First, a 8-parameter thermodynamic model to calculate performances of a single-effect absorption heat...

Experimental determination of solubility and ternary phase diagram of chiral compound are of tedious and time consuming tasks, and in many cases, there is not enough experimental data for different enantiomeric compositions to access the experimental ternary phase diagram. Using thermodynamic models with predictive capability, having less dependency on experimental data, affords a great advanta...

An increasingly popular approach when solving the phase and chemical equilibrium problem is to pose it as an optimization problem. However, diiculties are encountered due to the highly nonlinear nature of the models used to represent the behavior of the uids, and because of the existence of multiple local solutions. This work shows how it is possible to guarantee-global solutions for a certain ...

The interaction energy parameters of the Nonrandom two-liquid (NRTL) equation for Bi–Se, Pb–Se, Sb–Se, and Tl–Se binary systems were determined. difference in goodness fit between was discussed each system. activities components at corresponding temperatures four calculated using NRTL equation. mixing enthalpies Gibbs free energies these obtained. calculations are agreement with experimental da...

A concentration-dependent surface area parameter model (Iwai, Fluid Phase Equilibria, 465 (2018) 24–32) was modified to avoid the restriction conditions for parameters of pure components. The is applied correlate ternary liquid-liquid equilibria and constituent binary phase with one set parameters. correlated results both vapor-liquid obtained by are better than those NRTL UNIQUAC models. simul...

The investment and annual costs for a separation of aromatic hydrocarbons from a naphtha feed (~10 % aromatics) can be 35 to 70 % lower for an extraction with ionic liquids compared to an extraction with sulfolane. Aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene and xylenes) and C4 C10 aliphatic hydrocarbons are normally separated by liquid extraction, extractive distillation or azeotrop...

Ionic liquids (ILs) have been suggested as potential "green" solvents to replace volatile organic solvents in reaction and separation processes due to their negligible vapor pressure. To develop ILs for these applications, it is important to gain a fundamental understanding of the factors that control the phase behavior of ionic liquids with other liquids. In this work, we continue our study of...
