Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium for Binary Systems Containing a Heavy Liquid and a Dense Fluid Wen-Lu Wengt and Ming-Jer Lee* Department of Chemical Engineering, National Taiwan Institute of Technology, Taipei, 106, Taiwan

Equilibrium phase compositions were measured for the binary systems of acetophenone plus carbon dioxide, ethane, or ethylene at temperatures from 313.15 to 348.15 K and pressures up to 190 bar or near the mixture critical pressures. The solubilities of three dense fluids in four heavy liquids were compared. Henry’s constants, partial molar volumes of the gas a t infinite dilution, and the Margules parameters of the Krichevsky-Ilinskaya equation were also determined. Moreover, the validity of the Soave, Patel-Teja, and Iwai-Margerum-Lu equations of state for such systems were tested by the measured data. In general, the Patel-Teja equation is better than the others.

Introduction Supercritical fluid extraction is an alternative method to separate a heavy compound or a heat-sensitive substance from a wide variety of mixtures. Although numerous efforts have been made in this field, few thermodynamic models can correlate satisfactorily the phase-equilibrium data of mixturea containing a supercriticalfluid over a wide range of pressure (Brennecke and Eckert, 1989; Johnston et al., 1989). Expansion of the experimental data for such systems could be fundamentally helpful in giving us better insight into the behavior of supercritical fluids and in model development. Recently, we made a series of vapol-liquid equilibrium measurements for the binary mixtures composed of a heavy liquid and a dense fluid by using a semiflow type apparatus. Those dense fluids include carbon dioxide, ethane, and ethylene. Meanwhile, four heavy liquidsoctane (a nonpolar fluid), 1-octanol and methyl benzoate (moderate polar fluids), and acetophenone (a strongly polar fluid)-were selected as the model compounds. The results of the binary systems containing octane, 1-octanol, or methyl benzoate have been published (Weng and Lee, 1992a-c) and those of the acetophenone-containing systems are reported in this article. The equilibrium phase compositions of acetophenonecontaining systems were measured at temperatures from 313.15 to 348.15 K and pressures up to 190 bar or near the mixture critical pressures. Together with our previous works, the gas solubilities in the four respective heavy liquids were compared. For practical uses, the saturated vapor compositions of acetophenone (yl) were correlated with the fluid density of the light component and the gas solubilities (zz)were fitted by the Krichevsky-Ilinskaya (KI) equation (Krichevsky and Ilinskaya, 1945). Henry’s constants, partial molar volumes of the gas at infinite dilution, and the Margules parameters of the KI equation were reported for 12 binary systems. Moreover, those phase-equilibrium data were used to test the applicability of the Soave (Soave, 1972), Patel-Teja (Pate1 and Teja, 1982), and Iwai-Margerum-Lu (Iwai et aL, 1988) equations of state with conventional mixing rules. The Patel-Teja equation is generally better than the others. However, the bubble pressures calculated from those three models appear unsatisfactory near the critical regions. Experimental Work Detailed illustration of the apparatus and operation was given elsewhere (Lee and Chao, 1988; Weng and Lee,

No further purification of those chemicals was made. The accuracy of measurements is better than f0.02 K for temperature and f0.1% for pressure. In general, the phase cornpositions were reproduced within *2%. However, the uncertainty is about 10-15% for the vapor compositions of acetophenone (yl) at low pressure, where y1 falls as low as

The equilibrium phase compositions as well as the equilibrium vaporization ratios (K, = y ; / x i )for the acetophenonejcarbon dioxide, acetophenone/ethane, and acetophenone/ethylene systems are listed in Tables I, 11, and 111, respectively. Figure 1 illustrates the variation of pressure with saturated compositions for the ethane-containing system at 318.15, 328.15, and 338.15 K. A remarkable change of ethane solubility shows on the 318.15 K isotherm around 65 bar, and the ethane solubility isotherms have an obvious crossover within the investigated pressure range. This phenomenon could result from the condition that is very close to the upper end point of the vapor-liquid-liquid coexistence as indicated in our previous report for the l-octanol/C02 system (Weng and Lee, 1992b). Due to blind cells being used in this work, we cannot observe the phase behavior directly. Further experimental evidence is needed. Figure 2 presents the pressure-composition diagram for the acetophenone/ carbon dioxide system. Unlike the ethane-containing system, there is no crossover for the isotherms being investigated. Similar behavior was observed for the acetophenonelethylene system. Figure 3 shows the variation of saturated vapor composition of acetophenone Cyl) with the reduced pressure (Pr,2= P/PC,Jat 328.15 K. The acetophenone solubilities are very sparing and vary not much over the reduced pressurea lower than unity,whereas they increase markedly

A slightly higher reduced temperature for the ethylene-containing isotherm (Tr2= 1.16) leads the vapor composition of acetophenone to become much less sensitive to the pressure.

phenone are compared as illustrated in Figures 4 and 5, respectively. It is shown that the solubilities of the nonpolar gases in the nonpolar liquid (octane) are much larger than those in the polar liquids. The dipole moments of methyl benzoate (1.9D) and l-octanol(2.0 D) are almost the same, but the polar interactions among methyl benzoate molecules could be stronger h e to ita smaller molecular size. On the basis of the intermolecular force concept, that may lead the gas solubilities in methyl benzoate to be less than those in l-octanol. Since acetophenone has the highest dipole moment and the smallest molecular size among those four liquids, the intermolecular forces between acetophenone molecules may be the strongest that could result in the lowest gas solubilities in acetophenone. However, as given in Figure 6, the solubilities of carbon dioxide in methyl benzoate and in acetophenone are enhanced which could be attributed to weak Lewis acid-base interactions between acidic carbon dioxide and the basic aromatics (Le. charge-transfer effects).

Equilibrium Data Treatment Empirically, the saturated vapor composition of those supercritical fluid-containing systems can be correlated well with the density of the dense fluids (p) (Lee and Weng, 1992b,c). Similarly, it is valid for the acetophenone-containing systems. As an example, Figure 7 shows the relation for acetophenone/C02 system. It appears a quadratic correlation exists between ln(yl) and p for each isotherm; that is, (1) I d y l ) = C, + Clp + C2p2

This empirical equation is practically of interest because it is capable of interpolating the saturated vapor composition over a wide range of pressures that a conventional equation of state may fail. The best-fitted values of coefficients C,, C1,and Cz as well as the average absolute deviations (AAD) of Ayl are reported in Table IV for those three acetophenone-containing systems. The gas solubility data were correlated by the KI equation, W 2 / X 2 ) = In Hz,l+ [A(xlZ- l)/RT] + Vzm(P- P l o ) / R T (2) where represents Henry's constant of a gas (component 2) in a solvent (component 1) at the saturated pressure of the solvent (Pl"),A is the Margules constant, and V2- stands for the partial molar volume of the gae at infinite dilution. In this study, the fugacity of carbon dioxide was calculated from the equation reported by Huang et aL (1985)and those of ethane and ethylene were calculated from the Lee-Kesler equation (Lee and Kesler, 1975). Mathmetically the values of Hz,l,A, and ?2m for each isotherm can be obtained by fitting the solubility data to the KI equation, but the resulting values of A and could be unreasonable. h a consequence, the partial molar volumes of the solute at infinite dilution were calculated fmt from the generalized equation proposed by Brelvi and O'Connell (1972) accompanying the modified Rackett model (Spencer and Danner, 1972) for liquid densities. Then the values of H2,1 and the Margules constant were determined by a least-squares algorithm. The results are given in Table V, which show that the KI equation cor-

Ind. Eng. Chem. Res., Vol. 31, No. 12, 1992 2773 In general, the Patel-Teja equation is better than the others. The smooth curves shown in Figures 1and 2 are the calculated values from the Patel-Teja equation. It appears that the accuracy is acceptable except near the critical regions. More sophisticated mixing rules may be required to improve the validity of the equations of state for the supercritical fluid-containing systems over a wide range of pressures. Conclusion The phase-equilibrium data of three binary systems composed of acetophenone plus carbon dioxide, ethane, or ethylene were reported at temperatures between 313.15 and 348.15 K and pressures up to 190 bar or near the mixture critical pressures. A comparison being made in this work shows that the solubilitiesof ethane and ethylene in the following respective heavy liquids decrease in the sequence of octane, 1-octanol, methyl benzoate, and acetophenone, whereas those of carbon dioxide decrease in the sequence of octane, methyl benzoate, acetophenone, and 1-octanolbecause the weak charge-transfer complexes may form between acidic carbon dioxide and the basic aromatics. Each acetophenone solubility isotherm (yJ correlates well with the dense-fluid density and the gas solubility data can be correlated by the KI equation with acceptable accuracy. Moreover, the values of Henry's constant, partial molar volume of the light component at infinite dilution, and Margules parameter in the KI equation were reported for each isotherm, which may be of interest for practical uses. We also found that the Patel-Teja equation is generally better than the Soave and the Iwai-MargerumLu equations of state for the supercritical fluid-containing systems. However, the results of the bubble-point calculations from the three models are not so satisfactory where the conditions are near the critical regions. More complex mixing rules may be needed to improve the validity of the equations of state for such systems over a wide range of pressures.
