Isothermal vapour-liquid equilibria in the binary and ternary systems composed of 2,2,4-trimethylpentane, 2-methyl-1-propanol, and 4-methyl-2-pentanone
Vapour-liquid equilibrium data in the three binary 2,2,4-trimethylpentane + 2-methyl-1-propanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol + 4-methyl-2-pentanone, 2,2,4-trimethylpentane + 4-methyl-2-pentanone systems, and in the ternary 2,2,4-trimethylpentane + 2-methyl-1-propanol + 4-methyl-2-pentanone system are reported. The data were measured isothermally at 333.15, 348.15 and 364.15 K covering the pressure range 12-100 kPa. The binary vapour-liquid equilibrium data were correlated using the Wilson and NRTL equations by means of a robust algorithm for processing all isotherms together: resulting parameters were then used for calculation of phase behaviour in the ternary system and for subsequent comparison with experimental data.
