The prediction method of the isobaric vapor-liquid-liquid equilibria (VLLE) data for the system ethanol-water-1-butanol and ethanol-2-butanol-water was studied. The parameters for the activity coefficients models were determined from the constituent binary VLE data. With the parameters, the isobaric ternary VLLE data were predicted and compared with the experimental ones obtained in our previou...

Liquid-Liquid Equilibrium (LLE) data are measured for the ternary mixtures of water + 1-butanol + butyl acetate and quaternary mixtures of water + 1-butanol + butyl acetate + glycerol at atmospheric pressure at 313.15 K. In addition, isothermal vapor–liquid–liquid equilibrium (VLLE) data are determined experimentally at 333.15 K. The region of heterogeneity is found to increase as the hydrophil...

In this study, the experimental results exhibit that the mixture of water + acetic acid + methyl acetate + pxylene has interesting phase behaviors of vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) and vapor-liquid-liquid equilibrium (VLLE) under pressure of 101.32 kPa. The VLE and VLLE data were obtained with a condensed-vapor-phase-recirculating still as described in the text. The experimental data are useful...

A method based on the Genetic Algorithm (GA) was developed to study the phase behavior of multicomponent and multiphase systems. Upon application of the GA to the thermodynamic models which are commonly used to study the VLE, VLLE and LLE phase equilibria, the physically meaningful values for the Binary Interaction Parameters (BIP) of the models were obtained. Using the method proposed in this ...

A variety of hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) compounds, both as pure substances and mixtures, are being developed as alternative refrigerants to replace the exsting chlorofluorocarbons and hydrofluorocarbons which have been linked to stratospheric ozone depletion. The use ofHFC's in refrigeration systems will require new lubricants, and polyolesters are being widely promoted as the lubricant of choice ...

This work reports high-pressure cloud point data for the quaternary system glycerol + olive oil + n-butane + AOT surfactant. The static synthetic method, using a variable-volume view cell, was employed for obtaining the experimental data at pressures up to 27 MPa. The effects of glycerol/olive oil concentration and surfactant addition on the pressure transition values were evaluated in the temp...
