Retention of aroma compounds by carbohydrates: Influence of their physicochemical characteristics and of their physical state a review
1998
Many aroma compounds, used to flavor food products, are used in a solid state, after encapsulation. Carbohydrates are the most common matrices used to entrap these volatiles. It has been observed that depending on the aroma compound and the carrier, efficiency can vary. This article reviews the influence of physicochemical properties of both the volatiles and the carriers on retention. The latter depends on the functional groups of the aroma compound. Moreover, it increases with molecular weight and decreases with the polarity and relative volatility of the aroma compound. This behavior can be explained by the effect of these properties on the diffusion of the aroma compound through the mat…
Approach to the 1-propanol dehydration using an extractive distillation process with ethylene glycol
2015
Abstract The extractive distillation process exploits the capacity of some chemicals to alter the relative volatility between the components of a mixture. In this way, a third component (called entrainer) may be added to an azeotropic binary mixture to break the azeotrope. This paper discusses the potential use of ethylene glycol as entrainer in a 1-propanol dehydration process by extractive distillation. First, the present work focuses on the acquisition of isobaric vapor–liquid equilibrium data of the ternary system 1-propanol + water + ethylene glycol system and the binaries systems 1-propanol + ethylene glycol and water + ethylene glycol. All measurements were done at 101.3 kPa. The exp…
Isobaric vapor-liquid equilibria for extractive distillation of 1-propanol + water mixture using thiocyanate-based ionic liquids
2017
Abstract This paper presents vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) data at 101.3 kPa for the ternary systems 1-propanol + water + 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium thiocyanate [emim][SCN] and 1-propanol + water + 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium thiocyanate [bmim][SCN] and their constituents binary systems. The experimental data obtained were correlated using the NRTL, eNRTL and UNIQUAC models. It was found that the addition of these ionic liquids enhance the relative volatility of 1-propanol to water, and the separation ability follows the order of [emim][SCN] > [bmim][SCN]. The results obtained were compared with the VLE data of the system containing this azeotropic mixtures with different imidazolium-base…
Isobaric Vapor−Liquid Equilibria for Water + Acetic Acid + Sodium Acetate
2003
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…
