Coordinate compounding in English and Spanish
2011
Coordinate compounding is a process which has been only sporadically considered in wordformation studies on Germanic and Romance languages. In this paper, we compare the situation in English with that in Spanish as far as formal structure and semantics are concerned. To this end, an operational definition of coordinate compounding is first provided, after which a semantic classification of coordinate compounds is developed. For each type, variants are discussed, representative examples are provided, and similarities and dissimilarities between the two languages are highlighted. We finish by raising the issues of recursiveness and productivity in coordinate compounding and we examine the pos…
Separation of the azeotropic mixture 2-propanol + water employing different imidazolium ionic liquids as solvents
2020
Abstract The liquid-liquid equilibria of the ternary systems water (1) + 2-propanol (2) + [emim][Tf2N] (3) and water (1) + 2-propanol (2) + [hmim][Tf2N] (3) at 283.2, 303.2 and 323.2 K and atmospheric pressure were investigated, in order to achieve a better knowledge of the ternary mixture behaviour. The capability of [emim][Tf2N] and [hmim][Tf2N] as solvents in the separation of the azeotropic mixture water + 2-propanol was studied through the distribution coefficient and selectivity, and compared with the results obtained with other ionic liquids in the same azeotropic mixture studied before by our research group. The thermodynamic parameters of both ternary mixtures were calculated by th…
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 …
Study of the capability of 1-decyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ionic liquid as solvent in the separation of water from 1-pr…
2020
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…
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.
Liquid–Liquid Equilibria of Water + Ethanol + 1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium Bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide Ternary System: Measurements and Correla…
2015
In this work authors present the experimental liquid–liquid equilibria (LLE) data of water + ethanol + 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide ([bmim][Tf2N]) system at different temperatures. The LLE of the system was obtained in the temperature range from 283.2 to 323.2 K. The nonrandom two liquid (NRTL) and universal quasichemical (UNIQUAC) models were used to correlate ternary systems. The equilibrium compositions were successfully correlated by the interaction parameters from both models, however UNIQUAC gave a more accurate correlation. Finally, a study about the solvent capability of ionic liquid was made in order to evaluate the possibility of separating the mi…
Isobaric vapor–liquid equilibria for binary and ternary mixtures with cyclohexane, cyclohexene, and morpholine at 100kPa
2010
Abstract Vapor–liquid equilibria (VLE) data at 100 kPa have been determinated for the ternary system cyclohexane + cyclohexene + morpholine and two constituent binary systems cyclohexane + morpholine and cyclohexene + morpholine. The thermodynamic consistency of experimental data has been verified. Both binary systems deviate moderately from ideality without the presence of an azeotrope. The VLE data have been well correlated using local composition models (Wilson, NRTL and UNIQUAC) and have been also predicted with the original UNIFAC.
Isobaric vapor–liquid equilibrium for ternary mixtures of ethanol and methylcyclohexane with 3-methylpentane and tert-butyl alcohol at 101.3kPa
2007
Abstract Consistent vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for the ternary systems 3-methylpentane + ethanol + methylcyclohexane and ethanol + tert-butyl alcohol (TBA) + methylcyclohexane are reported at 101.3 kPa. The VLE data have been correlated by Wilson, UNIQUAC and NRTL equations. The ternary systems do not present azeotrope and are well predicted from binary interaction parameters.
Farmer-Herder Conflict in Africa: An Assessment of the Causes and Effects of the Sedentary Farmers-Fulani Herdsmen Conflict : A Case Study of the Ago…
2017
Master's thesis Global development and planning UT505 - University of Agder 2017 Violent conflicts, particularly farmer-herder conflicts have, for a long time, been a common feature of economic livelihood in West Africa (Bleach, 2004). This thesis explores the causes and the effects of farmer-Fulani herdsmen conflict, and the mitigation responses towards the conflict. The resource scarcity, eco-survivalism and social capital theories (Hommer-Dixon, 1999; Okoli, 2013; Bourdieu, 1986) serve as the main theoretical point of discussion for this study. Using Agogo in Ghana as a case study, the study empirically examines the reasons behind the movement of the Fulani herdsmen to Agogo, the causes …
