Measurement and prediction of isothermal vapor–liquid equilibrium of a-pinene+camphene/longifolene+abietic acid+palustric acid+neoabietic acid systems

The vapor–liquid equilibrium(VLE)data of a-pinene+camphene+[abietic acid+palustric acid+neoabietic acid]and a-pinene+longifolene+[abietic acid+palustric acid+neoabietic acid]systems at 313.15 K,333.15 K and 358.15 K were measured by headspace gas chromatography(HSGC).These data was compared with the predictions value by conductor-like screening model for realistic solvation(COSMO-RS).Moreover,the calculated data of COSMO-RS and Non-Random Two-Liquids(NRTL)models showed good agreement with the experimental data.It was found that the three resin acids inhibited the volatility of a-pinene,camphene and longifolene and resulted in the decrease of total pressure.Moreover,HE(HB)contributes the most to the excess enthalpy and the hydrogen bonding interaction is the dominant intermolecular force of a-pinene,camphene and longifolene with the three resin acids.In addition,the geometric structures optimization and binding energy were obtained by the DFT to further illustrate the hydrogen bonding interaction and the effects of the addition of the three resin acids on the isothermal VLE.

Isobaric vapor-liquid equilibrium for methyldichlorosilane- dimethyldichlorosilane-benzene system

The elucidation of vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) of the halogenated silane was necessary for the production of silicon derivatives, especially for methylvinyldichlorosilane, due to the lack of the relevant reports. Isobaric VLE for the system methyldichlorosilane-dimethyldichlorosilane-benzene and isobaric VLE of the three binary systems were measured with a new pump-ebulliometer at the pressure of 101.325 kPa. These binary compositions of the equilibrium vapor were calculated according to the Q function of molar excess Gibbs energy by the indirect method and the resulted VLE data agreed well with the thermo-dynamic consistency. Moreover, the experimental data were correlated with the Wilson, NRTL, Margules and van Laar equations by means of the least-squares fit, the acquired optimal interaction parameters were fitted to experimental vapor-liquid equilibrium data for binary systems. The binary parameters of Wilson equation were also used to calculate the bubble point temperature and the vapor phase composition for the ternary mixtures without any additional adjustment. The predicted vapor-liquid equilibrium for the ternary system was in a good agreement with the experimental results. The VLE of binary and multilateral systems provided essential theory for the production of the halogenated silane.

Measurement and Correlation of Isobaric Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium of Three Binary Systems Containing Chlorobenzene at 50.00 and 101.33 kPa

Isobaric vapor-liquid equilibrium(VLE) data for three binary systems, chlorobenzene + N,N-dimethylformamide, chlorobenzene + furfural, and chlorobenzene + benzaldehyde, were measured at 50.00 and 101.33 kPa using a modified Rose-Williams still. Gas chromatography was used to analyze the compositions of the samples and no azeotropic behavior was found. All of the measured VLE values were checked by the semi-empirical method proposed by Herington and the point-to-point Van Ness test method modified by Fredenslund. The experimental data were correlated by using the Wilson, the non-random two-liquid and universal quasi-chemical activity coefficient models. The corresponding parameters for the three models were obtained.

Effect of methylimidazolium-based ionic liquids on vapor–liquid equilibrium behavior of tert-butyl alcohol + water azeotropic mixture at 101.3 kPa

Three ionic liquids(ILs),1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bromine([EMIM]Br),1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bromine([BMIM]Br),and 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium bromine([HMIM]Br),were used as the solvent for separation of {tert-butyl alcohol(TBA)+ water} azeotrope.Vapor–liquid equilibrium(VLE)data for {TBA + water + IL}ternary systems were measured at 101.3 k Pa.The results indicate that all the three ILs produce an obvious effect on the VLE behavior of {TBA + water} system and eliminate the azeotropy in the whole concentration range.[EMIM]Br is the best solvent for the separation of {TBA + water} system by extractive distillation among the three ILs.The experimental VLE data for the ternary systems are correlated with the NRTL model equation with good correlations.Explanations are given with activity coefficients of water and TBA,and the experimental VLE-temperature data for {TBA or water + IL} binary systems.

Prediction of Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium Data from C—H Band Shift of IR Spectra in Some Binary Systems

Prediction of vapor-liquid equilibrium （VLE） is extremely necessary to separate liquid mixture in chemical production, especially when the required experimental data are difficult to measure, or the measurement is not economical. The infinite dilution activities can be used to predict VLE. However, it needs both the ends of the activities that are difficult to obtain for many systems. In the present study, a new model is proposed for correlating the frequency shift of C-H stretching band of IR spectra over the whole concentration. Investigated mixtures in- clude water/2-propanol, water/N, N-dimethylformamide （DMF）, water/methanol, water/ethanol, water/1, 4-dioxane, and water/dimethylsulfoxide （DMSO） systems. Simultaneous correlations of C--H frequency shift and VLE data are made. Furthermore, the VLE data were predicted with satisfactory results by the parameters obtained from IR spectra coupled with one ot the intinite chlution activity coefficients.

Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium Prediction of Ammonia-Ionic Liquid Working Pairs of Absorption Cycle Using UNIFAC Model

On the basis of reported experimental vapor-liquid equilibrium （VLE） data of NH3-1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate （NH3-[Emim]Ac）, NH3-1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate （NH3-[Bmim][BF4]）, NH3-1,3-dimethylimidazolium dimethyl phosphate （NH3-[Mmim]DMP） and NH3-1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ethylsulfate （NH3-[Emim]EtOSO3） binary systems, the interaction parameters of 14 new groups have been regressed by means of the UNIFAC model. To validate the reliability of the method, these parameters have been used to calculate the VLE data with the average relative deviation of pressures of less than 9.35%. The infinite dilution activity coefficient （ γ1∞ ） and the absorption potential （ φ1 ） are important evaluation criterions of the affinity between working pair species of the absorption cycle. The UNIFAC model is implemented to predict the values of and φ1 of t6 sets of NH3-ionic liquid （1L） systems. The work found that the φ1 gradually increases following the impact order： φ1（[Cnmim][BF4]）〈φ1（[Cnmim]EtOSO3）〈φ1（[Cnmim]DMP）〈φ1（[Cnmim]Ac） （n= 1, 2, 3, … ） at a given cation of IL species and constant temperature, and φ1（[Mmim]X）〈φ1（[Emim]X）〈φ1（[Pmim]X）〈 φ1（[Bmim]X）（X= Ac, [BF4], DMP or EtOSO3） at a given anion of IL species and constant temperature. Furthermore, the φ1 gradually increases with increasing temperature. Then, it could be concluded that the working pair NH3-[BmimlAc has the best potential research value relatively.

Vapor-liquid equilibrium(VLE) data were measured for ternary system water + ethanol + 1-butyl-3methylimidazolium acetate([bmim][OAc]),in a relatively wide range of ionic liquid(IL) mass fractions up to 0.8.Six sets of complete T-x-y data were obtained,in which the mole fraction of ethanol on IL-free basis was fixed separately at 0.1,0.2,0.4,0.6,0.8,and approximate 0.98.The non-random-two-liquid(NRTL) and electrolyte non-random-two-liquid(eNRTL) equations were used for correlation,showing similar deviations.The ternary VLE was also modeled with the correlation from two data sets,with the mole fractions of ethanol on IL-free basis being 0.1 and approximate 0.98.The VLE data were also reproduced satisfactorily.With the eNRTL model,the root-mean-square deviation for temperature is 0.79 K and that for vapor-phase mole fraction is 0.0094.The calculations are in good agreement with experimental data.The effect of the IL on the VLE behavior of the volatile components is also illustrated.

Salt-Containing Extractive Distillation of 1-Propanol/Water System 1.Prediction of Salt Effect on Vapor Liquid Equilibrium

This paper has studied the vapor-liquid equilibrium （VLE） for the salt-containing extractive distillation of the 1-propanol/water system. Binary VLE data were measured for the systems of 1-propanol （1）/KAc （4）, ethanediol （3）/KAc （4）, and 1-propanol （1）/ethanediol （3）, with the VLE data correlated with the NRTL model in order to obtain the model parameters of these binary systems. The binary VLE data cited in technical literature were correlated to obtain the model parameters for other binary systems. VLE data of ternary and quaternary systems predicted by the NRTI.： model agreed well with the literature data. The influence of KAc, ethanediol, and the KAc/ethanediol mixture on volatility between 1-propanol and water was investigated respectively. Test results showed that the above-mentioned materials （KAc, ethanediol） and their mixture （KAc and ethanediol） have different influence on the volatility. When x3=0.5, and x4=0.05, the azeotropic point can be elimi- nated. The NRTL model method of salt-containing VLE is simple and effective for the prediction of the system＇s VLE data.

Isobaric Vapor–Liquid Equilibrium for tert-Butyl Alcohol + Water + Propane-1,3-Diol + 1-Ethyl-3-Methylimidazolium Chloride at 101.3 kPa

In this study, we used a mixture of organic liquid propane-1,3-diol and ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride([emim]Cl) as the entrainer to separate tert-butyl alcohol(TBA) + water. We measured the isobaric vapor–liquid equilibrium(VLE) for the quaternary system TBA + water + propane-1,3-diol + [emim]Cl at 101.3 kPa, and found the VLE data to be well correlated with the nonrandom two-liquid model. These results show that the mixed solvent of propane-1,3-diol + [emim]Cl can increase the relative volatility of TBA to water and break the azeotropic point. We found no notable synergetic effect between them, and observed that the liquid mixed solvent of propane-1,3-diol and [emim]Cl had lower viscosity than [emim]Cl, which makes it a promising entrainer for separating the TBA + water azeotrope in industrial applications.

Modeling p VT Properties and Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium of Ionic Liquids Using Cubic-plus-association Equation of State

Combining Peng-Robinson （PR） equation of state （EoS） with an association model derived from shield-sticky method （SSM） by Liu et al., a new cubic-plus-association （CPA） EoS is proposed to describe the ther-modynamic properties of pure ionic liquids （ILs） and their mixtures. The new molecular parameters for 25 ILs are obtained by fitting the experimental density data over a wide temperature and pressure range, and the overall aver-age deviation is 0.22%. The model parameter b for homologous ILs shows a good linear relationship with their mo-lecular mass, so the number of model parameters is reduced effectively. Using one temperature-independent binary adjustable parameter kij, satisfactory correlations of vapor-liquid equilibria （VLE） for binary mixtures of ILs ＋ non-associating solvents and ＋ associating solvents are obtained with the overall average deviation of vapor pressure 2.91% and 7.01%, respectively. In addition, VLE results for ILs ＋ non-associating mixtures from CPA, lattice-fluid （LF） and square-well chain fluids with variable range （SWCF-VR） EoSs are compared.

Based on the COSMO-SAC model,1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium p-toluenesulfonate were selected from 30 ILs as entrainers to investigate the separation of the isopropyl alcohol+isopropyl acetate azeotrope.Two screening indicators,σ-profile and infinite dilution selectivity(S^(∞)),were adopted as the basis.The iso baric vapor-liquid equilibrium experiments for isopropyl alcohol+isopropyl acetate binary system and isopropyl alcohol+isopropyl acetate+confirmed ILs ternary systems were performed at the pressure of atmospheric pressure.The experimental measurement demonstrated that the adopt ILs enhanced the relative volatility of the above alcohol-ester azeotrope,leading to the elimination of the azeotropic point with a certain amount ILs.Meanwhile,the thermodynamic correlation for two systems containing ILs was explored with the NRTL model,which also reflects the extensive applicability of that by comparing the deviation between experimental and calculated data.And its binary interaction parameters were regressed,which can provide a basis for its simulation process.
