Parameter interaksi biner kesetimbangan uap-cair campuran yang melibatkan alkohol rantai bercabang atau aseton telah ditentukan pada penelitian ini. Data kesetimbangan uap-cair kondisi isobarik pada tekanan atmosferik telah dipilih total sebanyak 14 sistem. Data kesetimbangan tersebut kemudian dikorelasikan dengan model koefisien aktifitas Wilson, Non-Random Two-Liquid (NRTL) dan Universal Quasi-Chemical (UNIQUAC) untuk diperoleh parameter interaksi binernya. Parameter tersebut ditentukan sebagai fungsi suhu pada penelitian ini untuk meningkatkan kemampuannya dalam aplikasi pada kisaran suhu yang panjang. Korelasi menunjukkan hasil yang baik dikarenakan root mean square deviation (RMSD) antara data eksperimental dengan hasil perhitungan relatif kecil. Sebagai tambahan, perilaku masing-masing sistem biner tersebut juga diamati pada kesempatan ini. Parameter yang diperoleh dapat digunakan untuk optimasi desain kolom distilasi pada proses pemurnian produksi bioetanol.The binary interaction parameters of vapor-liquid equilibrium for the mixtures involving branched-chain higher alcohols or acetone have been determined in this study. Isobaric vapor-liquid equilibrium data at atmospheric pressure have been selected for a total of 14 systems. The VLE data were then correlated with the Wilson, Non-Random Two-Liquid (NRTL) and Universal Quasi-Chemical (UNIQUAC) activity coefficient models to obtain its binary interaction parameters. The parameters were determined as the temperature-dependent in this study to increase its ability in wide temperature range applications. The correlations showed good results because the root mean square deviation (RMSD) between the experimental data and calculation values were relatively low. In addition, the behavior of each binary systems were also observed in this study. The obtained parameters could be used to optimize the distillation column design in the purification process of bioethanol production.

Liquid-liquid equilibrium at temperatures between 293.16K and 353.1K for the mixture of 2,2,4-trimethylpentane + 2- [2- (2-Hydroxypropoxy) propoxy] -1-propanol was determined using the cloud point method. The measured data was used to estimate the binary interaction parameters of NRTL thermodynamic model, through non-linear regression using MATLAB� software. The binary interaction parameters resulting from regression were used further in a chemical simulation software (PRO/II 9.3) to determine the LLE for the studied mixture. The LLE calculation results obtained with the NRTL model were compared with the results of LLE calculations using the predictive thermodynamic model-UNIFAC. It was determined that the results of the calculation of the LLE using binary interaction parameters obtained through regression have a smaller deviation from the experimental data than the results of the calculation performed using the UNIFAC model. Moreover, the binary interaction parameters obtained from regression were utilized for the estimation of the solvency properties of tripropylene glycol considering the extraction of C8 aromatics from a mixture containing 2,2,4-trimethyl pentane, ethylbenzene and xylenes.

In this work, the binary interaction parameters of vapor-liquid equilibrium for the mixtures of primary alcohols (methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol or 1-butanol) with C5 alcohols were obtained. A total of 15 systems that consisted of isobaric vapor-liquid equilibrium data at atmospheric pressure were selected. The binary interaction parameters were determined as temperature function by correlating the selected vapor-liquid equilibrium data using the Wilson, Non-Random Two-Liquid (NRTL) and Universal Quasi-Chemical (UNIQUAC) activity coefficient models. The binary interaction parameters were described as the temperature-dependent to increase the capability of the parameters for the application in wide range of temperature. The correlation showed good results because the root mean square deviation (RMSD) between the calculation values and experimental data were relatively low. The obtained parameters were very useful for optimizing the distillation column in the bio-ethanol purification process.

Summary The phase behavior of heavy-oil/propane mixtures was mapped from temperatures ranging from 20 to 180°C and pressures up to 10 MPa. Both vapor/liquid (VL1) and liquid/liquid (L1L2) regions were observed. Saturation pressures (VL1 boundary) were measured in a Jefri 100-cm3 pressure/volume/temperature (PVT) -cell and blind-cell apparatus. The propane content at which a light propane-rich phase and a heavy bitumen-rich (or pitch) phase formed (L1/L1L2 boundary) was visually determined with a high-pressure microscope (HPM) while titrating propane into the bitumen. High-pressure and high-temperature yield data were measured using a blind-cell apparatus. Here, yield is defined as the mass of the indicated component(s) in the pitch phase divided by the mass of bitumen in the feed. A procedure was developed and used to measure propane-rich-phase and pitch-phase compositions in a PVT cell. Pressure/temperature and pressure/composition phase diagrams were constructed from the saturation-pressure and pitch-phase-onset data. High-pressure micrographs demonstrated that, at lower temperatures and propane contents, the pitch phase appeared as glassy particles, whereas at higher propane contents and temperatures, it appeared as a liquid phase. Ternary diagrams were also constructed to present phase-composition data. The ability of a volume-translated Peng-Robinson cubic equation of state (CEOS) (Peng and Robinson 1976) to match the experimental measurements was explored. Two sets of binary-interaction parameters were tested: temperature-dependent binary-interaction parameters (SvdW) and composition-dependent binary-interaction parameters (CDvdW). Models derived from both types of binary-interaction parameters matched the saturation pressures and the L1L2 boundaries at one pressure but could not match the pressure dependency of the L1L2 boundary or the measured L1L2 phase compositions. The SvdW model could not match the yield data, whereas the CDvdW model matched yields at temperatures up to 90°C.
