K. Gauter et al., Fluid multiphase behaviour of various ternary systems of (carbon dioxide plus 1-alkanol plus tridecane), J CHEM THER, 30(12), 1998, pp. 1617-1631
As part of an extensive experimental study of the fluid multiphase equilibr
ia of ternary systems containing near critical carbon dioxide, a series of
systems of(carbon dioxide + 1-alkanol + tridecane) has been examined. Exper
imental results on these ternary systems with 1-octanol, 1-hexanol, and 1-p
entanol as the alkanol component are presented and discussed. The critical
endpoints of the three-phase (liquid + liquid + vapour) equilibria were det
ermined experimentally. A comparison of the results of this study was made
with those of previous measurements in ternary mixtures (carbon dioxide + 1
-alkanol + tetradecane), with 1-decanol, 1-octanol, 1-hexanol, and 1-pentan
ol as the alkanol. (C) 1998 Academic Press.
