چکیده
Chemical catalysis plays an important role in the modern chemical industry. The high demand for the products of industrial catalysis increases the need for development of solvent media that are both economical and environmentally friendly. Previous research efforts have focused on primarily supercritical CO2 (scCO2) and mixtures of scCO2 with other solvents such as acetonitrile, toluene, ethanol, etc[1]. However, the reaction benefits are

Transport properties of CO2-expanded acetonitrile from molecular dynamics simulations.
Carbon-dioxide-expanded liquids, which are mixtures of organic liquids and compressed CO2, are novel media used in chemical processing. The authors present a molecular simulation study of the transport properties of liquid mixtures formed by acetonitrile and carbon dioxide, in which the CO2 mole fraction is adjusted by changing the pressure, at a constant temperature of 298 K. They report value...
متن کاملModeling and Experimental Study of Carbon Dioxide Absorption in a Flat Sheet Membrane Contactor
comIn the present study, CO2 removal from natural gas stream has been studied using a flat sheet membrane contactor. A three dimensional mathematical model is developed to describe the process. The model considers the transport of a gas mixture containing carbon dioxide and methane through a flat sheet membrane contactor module. The model is based on the non-wetted mode of operation, in which t...
متن کاملPrediction 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...
متن کاملSelective and Efficient Ligandless Water-in-Oil Emulsion Liquid Membrane Transport of Thorium(IV) Ions
The present paper concerns on the selective and very efficient transport of thorium(IV) ions from aqueous solutions through an emulsion liquid membranes composed by paraffin and a surfactant, without carrier requirement. The influence of pH of the external aqueous phase, the surfactant concentration in the membrane phase, the type, and concentration of th...
متن کاملSoft-saft Modeling of Vapor Liquid Equilibria of Nitriles and Their Mixtures
Nitriles are strong polar compounds showing a highly non-ideal behavior, which makes them challenging systems from a modeling point of view; in spite of this, accurate predictions for the vapor-liquid equilibria of these systems are needed, as some of them, like acetonitrile (CH3CN) and propionitrile (C2H5CN), play an important role as organic solvents in several industrial processes. This work...
