Vapor Liquid Equilibrium for Chemical Processes and Applied Thermodynamics: International Collaboration and Industrial Cooperation (REU Supplement)

该项目涉及国际合作和工业合作，是测量低压和高压下汽液平衡的研究计划的继续。要研究的混合物既具有工业意义，又对分子热力学模型的进一步发展具有重要意义。具体地说，在低压下，将测量环醚(1，4二恶烷、四氢呋喃和呋喃)、酯、乙酸酯和甲酸盐的汽液平衡，每个环醚都含有烷烃。在高压下，氮气和二氧化碳的热力学行为将被单独和与烷烃一起测量。所有测量将在高于环境温度的情况下进行。

This project, which involves both international collaboration and industrial cooperation, is a continuation of a research program on the measurement of vapor-liquid equilibrium at low and high pressures. The mixtures to be studied are ones that are of both industrial interest and important for the further development of molecular thermodynamic modeling. Specifically, at low pressures, the vapor-liquid equilibrium of cyclic ethers (1, 4 dioxane, tetrahydrofuran and furfural), esters, ethanoatesa and formates, each with alkanes, will be measured. At high pressures the thermodynamic hehavior of nitrogen and carbon dioxide will be measured, bothe individually and together, with paraffinic hydrocarbons. All measurements will be at above ambient temperatures.
