In this study, CO2 absorption capacity in aqueous mixtures of 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol, (AMP) and N-butyl-3-methylpyridinium tetrafluoroborate, [B3MPYR][BF4] was measured at pressures from 200 kPa up to 5000 kPa and temperatures of 303.15 K - 333.15 K. The AMP concentration was maintained at 1 M while the [B3MPYR][BF4] concentration ranges from 0.05 M to 0.3 M. It was observed that CO2 loading capacity increases when the pressure increased. However, increasing of temperature will decrease the CO2 loading. From the experimental results, a simple correlation, as suggested by Jou and Mather was used to predict the CO2 loading in the aqueous AMP-[B3MPYR][BF4] mixtures. The model were found to be in a good agreement with the experimental results where only 1.66% of the predicted values deviate more than 20% compared to the experimental values.
Medicinal herb Christia vespertilionis oil has been claimed to possess anti-cancer and anti-plasmodial properties and show interest in food and pharmaceutical industries. Being an important alternative medicine plant, solubility data of Christia vespertilionis oil is demanded in order to understand the separation process and is crucial for designing purposes. In this work, extraction and determination of the oil's solubility were carried out using a green technique of supercritical carbon dioxide at a temperature range of 40 to 60℃ and 276 to 414 bar of pressure. The results demonstrated that the highest solubility was obtained at the highest temperature and pressure of 60℃ and 414 bar, respectively. For solubility prediction, experimental data were modelled using four empirical density-based models: Chrastil, del Valle and Aguilera, Adachi and Lu, and Sparks et al. models. In general, all the models were able to predict the solubility of Christia vespertilionis oil in supercritical carbon dioxide. The best fitting showed that Adachi and Lu model gave the best correlation with the lowest %AARD value of 1.61%.
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.
