Gas-liquid equilibrium compositions for the 0,-CO, system were determined over the -SOo to + l o o C. temperature range and from 130 atm. down to the saturation pressure of CO,. Activity coefiicients are calculated, and a thermodynamic consistency test i s applied to each isotherm.

T H E GAS-LIQUID equilibrium of t h e oxygen-carbon dioxide system h a s been studied along a few isotherms (10, 12, 1 6 ) , b u t until now no isobaric d a t a have been reported.

Using three Bourdon pressure gages ( P l , P2, and P3, F i g u r e 1 ) of different maximum readings, t h e pressure was measured to within 0.55% throughout the range of this investigation. Checks were made for t h e over-all reproducibility of the phase composition data by completing four r u n s at -30" C., 100 atm., and -20" C., 40 atm., respectively. The determined compositions were within 0.004 mole fraction f o r t h e vapor a t -30" C., 100 atm., and within 0.002 mole fraction f o r t h e liquid samples and t h e vapor sample at -20" C., 40 atm. E n t r a i n m e n t was minimized by using a low vapor circulation r a t e and by keeping the liquid level in the cell low. Reproducibility tests w i t h t h e vapor circulation r a t e increased by a factor of f o u r did not change the vapor composition significantly.
