The distribution of ionic species in electrolyte systems is important in many fields of science and engineering, ranging from the study of degradation mechanisms to the design of systems for electrochemical energy storage. Often, other phenomena closely related to ionic speciation, such as ion pairing, clustering and hydrogen bonding, which are difficult to investigate experimentally, are also of interest. Here, we develop an accurate molecular approach, accounting for reactions as well as association and ion pairing, to deliver a predictive framework that helps validate experiment and guides future modelling of speciation phenomena of weak electrolytes. We extend the SAFT-VRE Mie equation of state [D. K. Eriksen et al., Mol. Phys., 2016, 114, 2724–2749] to study aqueous solutions of nitric, sulphuric, and carbonic acids, considering complete and partially dissociated models. In order to incorporate the dissociation equilibria, correlations to experimental data for the relevant thermodynamic equilibrium constants of the dissociation reactions are taken from the literature and are imposed as a boundary condition in the calculations. The models for water, the hydronium ion, and carbon dioxide are treated as transferable and are taken from our previous work. We present new molecular models for nitric acid, and the nitrate, bisulfate, sulfate, and bicarbonate anions. The resulting framework is used to predict a range of phase behaviour and solution properties of the aqueous acids over wide ranges of concentration and temperature, including the degree of dissociation, as well as the activity coefficients of the ionic species, and the activity of water and osmotic coefficient, density, and vapour pressure of the solutions. The SAFT-VRE Mie models obtained in this manner provide a means of elucidating the mechanisms of association and ion pairing in the systems studied, complementing the experimental observations reported in the literature.

“…Finally, aqueous solutions of carbon dioxide can be modelled accurately by assuming that water associates mainly with the CO 2 moiety of the bicarbonate anion, confirming quantum mechanical studies from the literature.

Choosing a solvent and an antisolvent for a new crystallization process is challenging due to the sheer number of possible solvent mixtures and the impact of solvent composition and crystallization temperature on process performance. To facilitate this choice, we present a general computer aided mixture/blend design (CAM b D) formulation for the design of optimal solvent mixtures for the crystallization of pharmaceutical products. The proposed methodology enables the simultaneous identification of the optimal process temperature, solvent, antisolvent, and composition of solvent mixture. The SAFT-γ Mie group-contribution approach is used in the design of crystallization solvents; based on an equilibrium model, both the crystal yield and solvent consumption are considered. The design formulation is implemented in gPROMS and applied to the crystallization of lovastatin and ibuprofen, where a hybrid approach combining cooling and antisolvent crystallization is compared to each method alone. For lovastatin, the use of a hybrid approach leads to an increase in crystal yield compared to antisolvent crystallization or cooling crystallization. Furthermore, it is seen that using less volatile but powerful crystallization solvents at lower temperatures can lead to better performance. When considering ibuprofen, the hybrid and antisolvent crystallization techniques provide a similar performance, but the use of solvent mixtures throughout the crystallization is critical in maximizing crystal yields and minimizing solvent consumption. We show that our more general approach to rational design of solvent blends brings significant benefits for the design of crystallization processes in pharmaceutical and chemical manufacturing.
