Study of liquid–liquid equilibrium of the systems isobutyl acetate+acetic acid+water and isobutyl alcohol+acetic acid+water at different temperatures
Abstract In this work, experimental liquid–liquid equilibria (LLE) data of the systems isobutyl acetate + acetic acid + water and isobutyl alcohol + acetic acid + water are presented. The liquid–liquid equilibria of both systems have been measured at 283.15 and 323.15 K. The NRTL and UNIQUAC models were applied to fit the data for both ternary systems. The interaction parameters obtained from both models successfully correlated the equilibrium compositions. The experimental tie lines were compared to the values predicted by the UNIFAC method. Moreover, the solvent capabilities of isobutyl acetate and isobutyl alcohol were compared.
Vapor−Liquid Equilibria for the Binary Systems Isobutanol with m-Xylene, o-Xylene and p-Xylene at 101.3 kPa
Vapor−liquid equilibria were measured for binary systems of isobutanol with m-xylene, o-xylene, and p-xylene at 101.3 kPa using a recirculating still. The accuracy of experimental measurements was ±0.1 K in temperature, ±0.01 kPa in pressure, and ±0.001 in mole fraction. The results were determined to be thermodynamically consistent according to the point-to-point consistency and Wisniak tests. All the systems show moderate positive deviations from ideality. The data were correlated with five liquid-phase activity coefficient models (Margules, Van Laar, Wilson, NRTL, UNIQUAC).
Isobaric Vapor−Liquid Equilibria for Binary and Ternary Mixtures of Diisopropyl Ether, 2-Propyl Alcohol, and 3-Methyl-1-Butanol
Consistent vapor−liquid equilibrium data for the binary and ternary systems diisopropyl ether (1) + 2-propyl alcohol (2) + 3-methyl-1-butanol (3) are reported at 101.3 kPa. The diisopropyl ether (1) + 3-methyl-1-butanol (3) system shows positive deviations from ideal behavior, and the 2-propyl alcohol (2) + 3-methyl-1-butanol (3) system exhibits slight deviations from ideal behavior. The activity coefficients and the boiling points were correlated with their compositions by the Wilson, NRTL, UNIQUAC, and Wisniak−Tamir equations. It is shown that these models allow a very good prediction of the phase equilibria of the ternary system using the pertinent parameters of the binary systems. 3-Met…
Phase equilibria in the ternary system isobutyl alcohol+isobutyl acetate+1-hexanol and the binary systems isobutyl alcohol+1-hexanol, isobutyl acetate+1-hexanol at 101.3kPa
Abstract Consistent vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data at 101.3 kPa have been determined for the ternary system isobutyl alcohol (IBA) + isobutyl acetate (IBAc) + 1-hexanol and two constituent binary systems: IBA + 1-hexanol and IBAc + 1-hexanol.

Abstract Isobaric vapour–liquid equilibrium (VLE) measurements for the binary systems 4-methyl-2-pentanone + 1-butanol and 4-methyl-2-pentanone + 2-butanol are reported at 20 and 101.3 kPa.

In both systems, which deviate positively from ideal behaviour, the azeotropic composition is strongly dependent on pressure. The activity coefficients and boiling points of the solutions were correlated with its composition by the Wilson, UNIQUAC, and NRTL models for which the param…

Abstract New consistent vapor–liquid equilibrium data for the binary systems isobutyl alcohol (IBA) + isobutyl acetate (IBAc) and tert-butyl alcohol (TBA) + tert-butyl acetate (TBAc) are reported at 20 and 101.3 kPa.

Abstract In this work, experimental liquid–liquid equilibria (LLE) data of the dipropyl ether + n-propanol + water and dipropyl ether + n-propanol + ethylene glycol systems are presented.

The reliability of these models is tested by comparison with experimental results. Moreover, the solvent capabilities of water and ethylene glycol were compared, concluding that ethylene glycol is the best solvent to extract n-propanol.

Isobaric (vapour+liquid+liquid) equilibrium data for (di-n-propyl ether+n-propyl alcohol+water) and (diisopropyl ether+isopropyl alcohol+water) systems at 100kPa
Abstract Isobaric (vapour + liquid + liquid) equilibria were measured for the (di-n-propyl ether + n-propyl alcohol + water) and (diisopropyl ether + isopropyl alcohol + water) system at 100 kPa. The apparatus used for the determination of (vapour + liquid + liquid) equilibrium data was an all-glass dynamic recirculating still with an ultrasonic homogenizer couple to the boiling flask. The experimental data demonstrated the existence of a heterogeneous ternary azeotrope for both ternary systems. The (vapour + liquid + liquid) equilibria data were found to be thermodynamically consistent for both systems. The experimental data were compared with the estimation using UNIQUAC and NRTL models a…

Separation of isobutyl alcohol and isobutyl acetate by extractive distillation and pressure-swing distillation: Simulation and optimization
Abstract We have studied, simulated and evaluated economically two separation alternatives of a mixture made up of 52 mole% of isobutyl alcohol and 48 mole% of isobutyl acetate by means of a practical case of a plant to treat 12,000 Tm/year of the original mixture. The simulation has been carried out satisfactorily by means of a package of commercial software (Aspen HYSYS ® ) using the thermodynamic model UNIQUAC with binary parameters obtained experimentally by us. The two processes evaluated (extractive distillation using n -butyl propionate as a solvent and pressure-swing distillation) have been optimized independently from each other and the best configurations have been evaluated econo…

Effect of pressure and the capability of 2-methoxyethanol as a solvent in the behaviour of a diisopropyl ether–isopropyl alcohol azeotropic mixture
Abstract Consistent vapour–liquid equilibrium data for the binary and ternary systems of diisopropyl ether + isopropyl alcohol at 30 and 101.3 kPa and diisopropyl ether + 2-methoxyethanol, isopropyl alcohol + 2-methoxyethanol and diisopropyl ether + isopropyl alcohol + 2-methoxyethanol at 101.3 kPa are reported. The activity coefficients of the solutions were correlated with its composition using the Wilson, NRTL and UNIQUAC models. It is shown that the models allow a very good prediction of the phase equilibrium of the ternary system using the pertinent parameters of the binary systems. Moreover, the effect of pressure and the entrainer capability of 2-methoxyethanol were studied.
Separation of di-n-propyl ether and n-propyl alcohol by extractive distillation and pressure-swing distillation: Computer simulation and economic optimization
Abstract Azeotropic mixtures are impossible to separate by ordinary distillation. Two of the most common methods for separating a binary homogeneous azeotrope are pressure-swing distillation (PSD) and extractive distillation (ED). The PSD process is effective if the azeotropic composition changes significantly with pressure. The ED process is effective if a suitable solvent can be found. This paper compares these two alternatives to separate a mixture made up of 50 mol% of di-n-propyl ether and 50 mol% of n-propyl alcohol by means of a practical case of a plant to treat 12,000 Tm/year of this mixture. The simulation has been carried out satisfactorily by mean of a package of commercial soft…
Densities, Refractive Indices, and Excess Molar Volumes of Binary and Ternary Systems Containing Isobutyl Alcohol, Ethanol, 2-Methylpentane, and Methyl tert-Butyl Ether at 298.15 K
This paper reports experimental densities and refractive indices of binary and ternary systems containing isobutyl alcohol, ethanol, 2-methylpentane, and methyl tert-butyl ether over the whole composition range of mixtures at 298.15 K and atmospheric pressure. From these data, excess molar volumes VE have been calculated. These results are fitted to the Redlich−Kister and Cibulka polynomial equations to derive the binary and ternary coefficients, respectively.

Liquid−Liquid Equilibria for the System 1-Methyl Propyl Ethanoate (1) + Acetic Acid (2) + Water (3) at (283.15 and 323.15) K
Liquid−liquid equilibrium (LLE) data for the system 1-methyl propyl ethanoate + acetic acid + water were measured at temperatures of (283.15 and 323.15) K. The temperature influence on the LLE data is very small in the temperature range studied. The NRTL and UNIQUAC models were used to correlate the data for both ternary systems. The interaction parameters obtained from both models successfully correlated the equilibrium compositions.
