Phase behavior of mixture of supercritical CO₂ + ionic liquid: Thermodynamic consistency test of experimental data

Abstract

Various models have been applied composed of the Peng‐Robinson equation of state (PR‐EoS) and the Soave‐Redlich‐Kwong equation of state (SRK‐EoS) associated with three mixing rules including the following: Wong‐Sandler (WS), van der Waals one (vdW1), and van der Waals two (vdW2) for phase behavior modeling of mixtures of supercritical CO2 + different ionic liquids in vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) region. It has been found that the PR EoS implying the WS mixing rule can be used as a reliable thermodynamic model to perform a thermodynamic consistency test on the experimental data of phase behaviors of the supercritical CO2 + ionic liquid systems (19 commonly‐used ionic liquids have been studied). The results show that 40% of the experimental data seem to be thermodynamically consistent, 55.5% seem to be thermodynamically inconsistent, and 4.5% seem to be not fully consistent. © 2013 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 59: 3892–3913, 2013

A study to reduce atmospheric emissions of an existing natural gas dehydration plant using multiple thermodynamic models

“…Aspen Plus simulation software version V8.6 was utilized in this study. No changes or adjustments such as performing experimental data consistency tests (Eslamimanesh et al 2013) or data regressions were made to ASPEN Plus binary interaction parameters, and pure components' databanks.…”

The ability of artificial neural network in prediction of the acid gases solubility in different ionic liquids

“…Ionic liquids are containing two ionic parts involved large cationic and small anionic parts which result in being like liquid salts at the room temperature [13,14]. The designable ability of ionic liquids allows them to be effective solvents for sour gas removal.…”

Solubility of Ionic Liquid [Bmim]Ac in Supercritical CO2 Containing Different Cosolvents

“…Supercritical CO 2 has been widely used as a green solvent because of its nontoxic, gas-like viscosity and liquid-like solubility for several decades . During the recent years, several studies have been made about the application of scCO 2 for separation of ionic liquids from organic compounds. − However, it is well-known that cosovlent can enhance the solubility of solute in scCO 2 . In practical applications, the organic compounds may act as cosolvents to increase the solubility of ILs.…”
