Azeotropic distillation for 1-propanol dehydration with diisopropyl ether as entrainer: Equilibrium data and process simulation
2019
Abstract Azeotropic distillation process is widely used to separate non-ideal binary mixtures into their constituent pure components. 1-Propanol dehydration was used as case study and diisopropyl ether was analysed as possible entrainer in an azeotropic distillation. The separation of some alcohols from their aqueous solution is a challenging task because these aqueous mixture forms minimum boiling azeotrope. In this way, isobaric vapor-liquid and vapour-liquid-liquid equilibrium data were measured for the 1-propanol+ water + diisopropyl ether ternary mixture at 101.3 kPa. The data were correlated by NRTL and UNIQUAC models. A separation sequence (a decanter and a single-feed distillation c…
Vapor–liquid equilibrium of binary mixtures of trichloroethylene with 1-pentanol, 2-methyl-1-butanol and 3-methyl-1-butanol at 100 kPa
1999
Abstract Isobaric vapor–liquid equilibria (VLE) have been obtained for the systems trichloroethylene+1-pentanol, trichloroethylene+2-methyl-1-butanol and trichloroethylene+3-methyl-1-butanol at 100 kPa using a dynamic still. The experimental error in temperature is ±0.1 K, in pressure ±0.1 kPa, and in the liquid and vapor mole fraction ±0.001. The three systems satisfy the point-to-point thermodynamic consistency test. All the systems show positive deviations from ideality. The data have been correlated with the Margules, van Laar, Wilson, NRTL and UNIQUAC equations.

Consistent vapor−liquid equilibrium data for the binary and ternary systems methyl 1,1-dimethylethyl ether (MTBE) + 2-methyl-2-propanol (TBA) and methyl 1,1-dimethylethyl ether (MTBE) + 2-methylpentane + 2-methyl-2-propanol (TBA) are reported at 101.3 kPa at temperatures in the range 328 to 356 K. The results indicate that the systems deviate positively from ideality and that no azeotrope is present. The activity coefficients of the solutions were correlated with composition by 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 system. In addition, the Wisniak−…
Phase equilibria for the ternary systems ethanol, water+ethylene glycol or+glycerol at 101.3kPa
2013
Abstract Two solvents, ethylene glycol and glycerol, are proposed as possible entrainers for the extractive distillation of the binary azeotropic mixture formed by ethanol and water. In this way, consistent isobaric vapour–liquid equilibrium data at 101.3 kPa were measured for the ternary systems ethanol + water + ethylene glycol and ethanol + water + glycerol. The data were correlated by local compositions models Wilson, NRTL and UNIQUAC. Parameters of these models were later employed to evaluate ability of the candidates to break the original azeotrope. The obtained results led to consider the ethylene glycol and the glycerol as valid entrainers for the extractive distillation process of …
Isobaric Vapor−Liquid Equilibria for the Binary Mixtures of Styrene with Ethylbenzene, o-Xylene, m-Xylene, and p-Xylene
2006
Consistent vapor−liquid equilibria (VLE) data have been determined at (5 and 15) kPa for the binary systems styrene + ethylbenzene, + o-xylene, + m-xylene, and + p-xylene in the temperature range (324 to 359) K. The binary systems exhibit very slight deviations from ideal behavior, and no azeotrope is present. The VLE data were well-correlated by the Wilson, NRTL, and UNIQUAC equations.

Abstract The liquid-liquid equilibria of the ternary systems water (1) + 1-propanol (2) + 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([bmim][Tf2N]) (3) and water (1) + 1-propanol (2) + trihexyl(tetradecyl)phosphonium bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)phosphinate ([TDTHP][Phosph]) (3) at 283.2, 303.2 and 323.2 K and atmospheric pressure were determined to study their behaviour, determine their thermodynamic parameters and know the capability as solvents of [bmim][Tf2N] and [TDTHP][Phosph] in the separation of the azeotropic mixture water + 1-propanol. The non-random two-liquid (NRTL) and universal quasichemical (UNIQUAC) models were used in the calculation of the thermodynamic par…

Abstract After the good behavior of different 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ionic liquids (ILs) used as solvents in the separation of 1-propanol and 2-propanol from water, liquid-liquid equilibria data was measured from a system formed by a ternary mixture of water, 1-propanol or 2-propanol and 1-decyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([dmim][Tf2N]) at 283.2, 303.2 and 323.2 K and atmospheric pressure. The non-random two-liquid (NRTL) and universal quasichemical (UNIQUAC) models were employed to obtain the thermodynamic parameters of both ternary mixtures, with good results in all cases. Finally, the capability of [dmim][Tf2N] to separate…
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 (vapour+liquid+liquid) equilibrium data for (di-n-propyl ether+n-propyl alcohol+water) and (diisopropyl ether+isopropyl alcohol+water) syste…
2008
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…
Isobaric vapor–liquid equilibrium for binary and ternary mixtures of 2-methyl-2-propanol+methyl 1,1-dimethylpropyl ether+2,2,4-trimethylpentane
2000
Abstract New consistent vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for the binary system methyl 1,1-dimethylpropyl ether (TAME)+2,2,4-trimethylpentane (isooctane) and the ternary system 2-methyl-2-propanol (TBA)+methyl 1,1-dimethylpropyl ether (TAME)+2,2,4-trimethylpentane (isooctane) are reported at 101.3 kPa. In the binary system, the results indicate a positive deviation from ideality and no azeotrope is present. The ternary system presents a saddle point azeotrope that can be predicted from binary data. The activity coefficients and boiling points of the solutions were correlated with their composition by Wilson, UNIQUAC and NRTL equations.
