Vapor-Liquid-Equilibria for Benzyl Alcohol with Carbon-Dioxide, Ethane, or Nitrogen at Elevated Pressures
Vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) phase compositions were measured for the binary systems of benzyl alcohol with carbon dioxide, ethane, or nitrogen at temperatures from 333.15 K to 453.15 K and pressures up to 19 MPa. Henry’s constants were calculated from the isothermal equilibrium data. The new VLE data were correlated by the Patel-Teja equations of state with three different types of mixing rules. In general, using the one-fluid, two-parameter van der Waals mixing rule yielded the best representation for the investigated systems. The validity of a generalized Soave model was also tested with the equilibrium data of carbon dioxide + benzyl alcohol.
