Extension of the new proposed association equation of state (AEOS) to associating fluid mixtures

چکیده مقاله

Recently, a new statistical mechanic-based equation of state has been proposed by Mohsen-Nia and Modarress [M. Mohsen-Nia, H. Modarress, Chem. Phys. 336 (2007) 22–26] for associating pure fluids. The new association equation of state (AEOS) was successfully applied to calculate the saturated proper- ties of water, methanol, and ammonia. In this work, the new proposed AEOS is used to evaluate the (vapour + liquid) equilibrium (VLE) of 25 associating pure compounds and the adjusted parameters are reported. The new AEOS is also extended to mixtures containing associating and non-associating com- pounds. The calculated saturated properties of the pure compounds are compared with those calculated by other AEOSs. The results of VLE calculation for various binary mixtures such as: alcohol/hydrocarbon, alcohol/CO 2, alcohol/aromatic-hydrocarbons, and the quaternary system (H2O/CH 4/CO 2/H 2S) indicate the capability of the new proposed AEOS for associating pure and mixture calculations
