Predicting the Phase Equilibria of Carbon Dioxide Containing Mixtures Involved in CCS Processes Using the PPR78 Model

Theoretical Model and Phase Behavior for Binary Surfactant Mixtures I ~

A new model for micellization beha..-ior of binary surfactant mixtures in solution is presented. A packing parameter, P* , has been introduced to describe the nonrandom mixing in mixed micelles. The significant feature of this model is that it considers asymmetric behavior ofmicellization in binary surfactant mixtures and predict5 the changes in the structures of mixed micelles with concentrati...

Phase Behavior and Structure of Binary Hard-Sphere Mixtures

By integrating out the degrees of freedom of the small spheres in a binary mixture of large and small hard spheres, we derive an explicit effective Hamiltonian for the large spheres. Using the two-body (depletion potential) contribution to this effective Hamiltonian in simulations, we find stable fluid-solid and both metastable fluid-fluid and solid-solid coexistence in a mixture with size rati...

HRX-SAFT Equation of State for Fluid Mixtures: Application to Binary Mixtures of Carbon Dioxide, Water, and Methanol

In this work, we extend the pure fluid crossover statistical associating fluid theory (HRX-SAFT) equation of state (EOS) (Kiselev et al., Fluid Phase Equilib. 2001, 183-184, 53) to fluid mixtures of polar and associating components. HRX-SAFT incorporates non-analytic scaling laws in the critical region and is transformed into the analytical, classical HR-SAFT EOS far away from the critical poin...

Gibbs ensemble Monte Carlo simulations of binary mixtures of methane, difluoromethane, and carbon dioxide.

Gibbs ensemble Monte Carlo simulations were used to study the vapor-liquid equilibrium of binary mixtures of carbon dioxide + methane and carbon dioxide + difluoromethane. The potential forcefields we employ are all atomistic models, and have not previously been mixed together to study the vapor-liquid equilibrium of the binary mixtures. In addition, we characterize the microscopic structure of...

Promotion of the Cupellation Method for Accurate Determination of Gold Alloy’s Karat Containing Platinum-Group Metals

The main standard method for gold karat determination is the cupellation method. However, this method is not sufficiently accurate to determine gold karat in the presence of insoluble Platinum–Group Metals (PGMs), such as Ir, Ru, and Rh. In this study, for the first time, a complementary method that can be used coupled with the reference cupellation method is presented for the high...
