Abstract
The equilibrium solubilities of three solid polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon s (acenaphthene, fluoranthene, and triphenylene) were determined at tempera tures ranging from 308 K to 348 K and pressures from 121.6 to 354.6 bar in supercritical CO2. The data were obtained by using a simple static sampling apparatus which was tested by measuring the solubility of naphthalene in c ompressed CO2. The measured solubilities were correlated using a semiempiri cal model. The calculated results show satisfactory agreement with the expe rimental data.
