Isobaric Vapor−Liquid Equilibria for Water + Acetic Acid + Sodium Acetate

Isobaric vapor−liquid equilibria for the binary water + sodium acetate and acetic acid + sodium acetate systems and ternary mixtures of water, acetic acid, and sodium acetate have been measured at 100 kPa with a recirculating still. The addition of sodium acetate to water + acetic acid mixtures produced an appreciable rise in equilibrium temperature but a small effect on the relative volatility of water, which was augmented at higher water solvent concentrations and decreased at lower concentrations. These effects increased with higher salt concentrations. The experimental binary data sets have been correlated using a modified Mock's electrolyte NRTL model, which takes into account the asso…

Isobaric Vapor−Liquid Equilibria for Water + Acetic Acid + Lithium Acetate

Isobaric vapor−liquid equilibria for all of the binary and ternary mixtures of water, acetic acid, and lithium acetate have been measured at 100.00 kPa using a recirculating still. To take into account the association of the acetic acid in the vapor phase, Marek's chemical theory has been considered. The three experimental binary data sets have been independently correlated using Mock's electrolyte NRTL model, and the binary parameters estimated for each binary system have been used to predict the ternary vapor−liquid equilibrium using the same model. No ternary parameters were required. The ternary equilibrium values obtained in this way agreed well with the experimental values.

Isobaric Vapor−Liquid Equilibria for Water + Acetic Acid + Potassium Acetate

Isobaric vapor−liquid equilibria for water + acetic acid + potassium acetate at different salt concentrations as well as for solvent + potassium acetate binary mixtures have been obtained at 100 kPa. Potassium acetate is more effective in the salting-out effect (on water) than lithium and sodium acetates. The eNRTL-CT model, which is a combination of electrolyte nonrandom two-liquid and chemical theory models, has been used to fit the experimental data. The binary parameters of the model have been obtained from the experimental binary vapor−liquid equilibria which have been used to suitably reproduce the vapor−liquid equilibria (VLE) for water + acetic acid + potassium acetate ternary syste…
