Evaluation of the 2-Methoxyethanol as Entrainer in Ethanol–Water and 1-Propanol–Water Mixtures
2013
In this paper, 2-methoxyethanol (commercially known as methyl cellosolve) is proposed as a potential entrainer for extractive distillation processes involving water–alcohol mixtures. The two alcohols studied in this work are ethanol and 1-propanol. Thereby, isobaric vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data at atmospheric pressure have been measured for the ternary systems ethanol + water + 2-methoxyethanol and 1-propanol + water + 2-methoxyethanol. Moreover, data of the binary systems formed by the 2-methoxyethanol and each of the other chemicals used (ethanol, water, 1-propanol) have been obtained. The well-known local composition models Wilson, UNIQUAC, and NRTL have been used to correlate bin…
Liquid−Liquid Equilibria for the System 1-Methyl Propyl Ethanoate (1) + Acetic Acid (2) + Water (3) at (283.15 and 323.15) K
2009
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.
Isobaric vapour–liquid equilibria for the binary systems 4-methyl-2-pentanone+1-butanol and+2-butanol at 20 and 101.3kPa
2009
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. The system 4-methyl-2-pentanone + 1-butanol presents a minimum boiling point azeotrope at both pressures (20 and 101.3 kPa) and the system 4-methyl-2-pentanone + 2-butanol presents only a minimum boiling azeotrope at 20 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…
Isobaric Vapor−Liquid Equilibria of the Water + 1-Propanol System at 30, 60, and 100 kPa
1996
Isobaric vapor−liquid equilibria for the water + 1-propanol system are reported at 30, 60, and 100 kPa. The results were found to be thermodynamically consistent according to Van Ness−Byer−Gibbs, Kojima, and Wisniak methods. The system shows a minimum boiling azeotrope, and the azeotropic composition is scarcely shifted with pressure. Results were compared with literature values. The data were correlated with Margules, Van Laar, Wilson, NRTL, and UNIQUAC liquid-phase activity coefficient models.
Isobaric Vapor−Liquid Equilibria of the Water + 2-Propanol System at 30, 60, and 100 kPa
1996
Isobaric vapor−liquid equilibria were obtained for the water + 2-propanol system at 30, 60, and 100 kPa. The activity coefficients were found to be thermodynamically consistent by the methods of Van Ness−Byer−Gibbs, Kojima, and Wisniak. The data were correlated with five liquid phase activity coefficient models (Margules, Van Laar, Wilson, NRTL, and UNIQUAC).
Phase equilibrium for the systems diisopropyl ether, isopropyl alcohol+2,2,4-trimethylpentane and +n-heptane at 101.3kPa
2010
Abstract Consistent vapour–liquid equilibrium data for the ternary systems diisopropyl ether + isopropyl alcohol + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane and diisopropyl ether + isopropyl alcohol + n-heptane are reported at 101.3 kPa. The vapour–liquid equilibrium data have been correlated by Wilson, NRTL and UNIQUAC equations. The ternary systems do not present ternary azeotropes.

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. The IBA + 1-hexanol system exhibits no deviation from ideal behaviour and IBAc + 1-hexanol system show lightly positive deviation from Raoult's law. The activity coefficients of the solutions were correlated with its composition by the Wilson, NRTL, UNIQUAC models. The ternary system is well predicted from binary interaction parameters. 1-Hexanol eliminates the IBA–IBAc binary azeotrope. However, the change of phase equilibria behaviour is small t…

Abstract Consistent vapor–liquid equilibria (VLE) were determined for the ternary system isobutyl alcohol (IBA) + isobutyl acetate (IBAc) + N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and two constituent binary systems at 101.3 kPa. The IBA + DMF system exhibits negative deviation from ideal behaviour and IBAc + DMF system deviates positively from ideal behaviour. The activity coefficients of the solutions were correlated with its composition by the Wilson, NRTL and UNIQUAC models. The ternary system is well predicted from binary interaction parameters.
Isobaric vapor–liquid equilibria for the binary systems 1-propyl alcohol+dipropyl ether and 1-butyl alcohol+dibutyl ether at 20 and 101.3kPa
2006
Abstract Isobaric vapor–liquid equilibrium measurements for the binary systems 1-propyl alcohol + dipropyl ether and 1-butyl alcohol + dibutyl ether are reported at 20 and 101.3 kPa. Both systems, which deviate positively from ideal behavior present a minimum boiling point azeotrope at both pressures, showing the azeotropic compositions a strong dependency on pressure. The activity coefficients and boiling points of the solutions were correlated with its composition by the Wilson, UNIQUAC, NRTL, and Wisniak–Tamir equations.
Isobaric vapor–liquid equilibrium for binary mixtures of 2-methylpentane+ethanol and +2-methyl-2-propanol
1999
Abstract Vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for the binary systems, 2-methylpentane+ethanol and 2-methylpentane+2-methyl-2-propanol (TBA), are reported at 101.3 kPa, including pure component vapor pressures. The systems deviate remarkably from ideal behaviour presenting one positive azeotrope. The activity coefficients and boiling points of the solutions were correlated with its composition by Wilson, UNIQUAC, NRTL, and Wisniak–Tamir equations.
