This work presents new phase equilibrium data of {CO 2 + 2-ethyl-1-hexanol} and {CO 2 + 2-methyl-2-propanol} systems with or without glycerol. The static synthetic method using a variable-volume view cell was utilized to measure vapor− liquid equilibrium saturation points at temperatures from 343 K to 393 K and at pressures up to 20 MPa. The phase transition pressure measurements were carried out by injecting a known amount of carbon dioxide into a mixture of [0.0087 glycerol + 0.9913 (2-ethyl-1-hexanol or 2-methyl-2-propanol)]. This amount of added glycerol did not significantly affect vapor−liquid transition pressures, compared to binary systems without glycerol. The Peng−Robinson equation of state was used to correlate the experimental phase equilibrium data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
