Isobaric Vapor−Liquid and Liquid−Liquid Equilibria for Chloroform + Methanol + 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium Trifluoromethanesulfonate at 100 kPa

2009

Isobaric vapor−liquid equilibria for the binary system chloroform + methanol as well as the vapor−liquid equilibria for the chloroform + methanol + [emim][triflate] ternary system have been obtained at 100 kPa using a recirculating still. The ternary ionic liquid (IL) system presents an immiscibility zone at high chloroform composition, which increases with the temperature. Liquid−liquid equilibria for this system have also been determined. The measured ternary vapor−liquid equilibrium data were correlated using the Mock’s electrolyte nonrandom two-liquid (NRTL) model which reproduces reasonably well the experimental values and predicts the total disappearance of the azeotrope when the mole…
