Liquid–liquid equilibrium data for the system water + ethanol + 2-ethyl-1-hexanol were obtained at 298.15, 308.15, and 318.15 K. Data for the binodal curves have been determined by cloud-point method and conjugate points on tie-line were obtained by correlating the refractive index of the binodal curves as a function of composition. The tie-line data at each temperatures were satisfactorily correlated using the method of Othmer and Tobias and the plait points coordinates were estimated. The experimental data were also fitted with the UNIFAC group contribution method for the activity coefficients using the isoactivity conditions as restraint equations. From the experimental results, ethanol extraction by 2-ethyl-1-hexanol appears not to depend on temperature and 2-ethyl-1-hexanol could be selected as a promissory solvent for extraction of ethanol from aqueous solutions. Keywords: liquid–liquid equilibria, ethanol extraction, water + ethanol + 2-ethyl-1-hexanol ternary system.

To evaluate the influence of temperature on the extraction of ethanol from aqueous solutions with 1,2-dichloroethane, liquid–liquid equilibrium data for the system water + ethanol + 1,2-dichloroethane were obtained at 298.15, 308.15, and 318.15 K. The binodal curves were determined by the cloud-point method, and conjugate points on the tie-lines were obtained by correlating the refractive index of these curves as a function of composition. The tie-line data at each temperature were satisfactorily correlated using the method of Othmer and Tobias, and the plait-point coordinates were estimated. The experimental data were also compared to values calculated by the UNIFAC group contribution method for the activity coefficients using the isoactivity conditions as restraint equations, and with the NRTL and UNIQUAC models. The UNIFAC method proved to be more accurate than the NRTL and UNIQUAC equations fitted to the experimental data. Under the experimental conditions used, ethanol extraction by 1,2-dichloroethane appears to be independent of the temperature.

Liquid-liquid equilibrium data for the terna1y system water-ethanol-dimethyl adipate (dibasic ester) have been determined experimentally at 298.15±0.20, 308.15±0.20, and 318.15±0.20 K. Tie-line compositions were correlated by the Othmer-Tobias method. The UNIFAC method was used to predict the phase equilibrium in the system using the interaction parameters determined from experimental data between the CH3, CH2, OH, CH3COO and H20 groups. Distribution coefficients and separation factors were evaluated for the immiscibility region

Isothermal vapour-liquid equilibrium data at 65, 73 and 80 °C and isobaric ones at 101.3 kPa were measured in the tetrachloromethane-sec-butyl alcohol system. A modified circulation still of the Gillespie type was used for the measurements. Under the conditions of measurement, the system exhibits positive deviations from Raoult's law and minimum boiling-point azeotropes. The experimental data were fitted to a number of correlation equations, the most suitable being the Wilson equation.

Isobaric equilibrium data (P = 101.3 kPa) for the system cyclohexane-acetic acid-propionic acid have been measured by two different analytical techniques. Activity coefficients calculated by simultaneous solving of equations for the chemical and phase equilibria were subjected to a consistency test based on inaccuracies determined from the error propagation law, and were correlated by Wilson’s equation. The activity coefficients measured were compared with those calculated from binary vapour-liquid equilibrium data and with values predicted by the UNIFAC method.
