In this work, the solid-liquid equilibria (SLE) of some aromatic organic mixtures including benzene, widely used as an industrial solvent, were measured by static method using our own made experimental apparatus. The accuracy and reproducibility of apparatus were tested by comparing experimental results with literature values for 1-dodecanol+cyclohxane and benzene + p-xylene systems. The SLE for new binary systems of benzene+aniline, benzene+nitrobenzene, p-xylene+cyclohexane were measured afterwards and compared with the calculated values by modified UNIFAC(Dortmund) equation.

1. 서론 : 막내부에서 물질전달을 설명하는 이론으로 현재 solution-diffusion model과 pore-flow model 두 가지가 있다. 이 중에서 흡착, 확산, 탈착의 3과정을 거치는 solution-diffusion model이 주로 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 solution-diffusion model 에서 상호확산계수를 구하기 위해서 Vrentas-Duda식을 이용하여 자기확산계수를 구하고 Bearman식으로부터 상호확산계수를 구하는 과정을 UNIFAC-FV와 modified UNIFAC-FV을 이용하여 계산하였으며 Flory-Huggins식을 이용한 기존방법과 비교하였다.(생략)

To estimatc mutual diffusion coefficient for the analysis of mass transfer phenomena in polymer/solvent system, two models are proposed and the equations are derived. The estimates of mutual diffusion coefficients are obtained by two models suggested in this work and compared with and experimental data and Vrentas-Duda's. Vrentas-Duda's self diffusion coefficient was used for the mutual diffusion coefficient. Derivative of chemical potential on solvent was derived and used using original UNIFAC-FV and modified UNIFAC-FV. However, Vrentas-Duda's equation for mutual diffusion coefficient contains Flory-Huggins parameter x. For the derivative of chemical potential term, Vrentas-Duda assumed that parameter x was constant and independent of temperatures and concentrations The assumption is one of shortcoming in vrentas-Duda's mutual diffusion coefficient. New methods proposed in this work do not have such assumptions and simplifications. For the solvent of cyclohexane, n-pentane, and n-hexane in PIB(polyisolbutylene) and PMS-BR (poly(p-methylstyrene-co-isobutylene), new methods well correlate the experimental data at various temperatures and concentrations, and predicted the experimental data much better than Vrentas-Duda's for the PIB/toluene system. It is shown that new methods are excellent tools for correlating mutual diffusion coefficient data in polymer/solvent system over wide ranges of temperature and concentration without any assumptions or simplifications.

A study on the selection of an optimal entrainer as the third component among water, aniline, 1,3-diethylbenzene, furfural, and MEK, for the extractive distillation of an azeotropic acetone/methanol system was performed using both the entrainer effect vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) and the relative volatility. In the case of water as the entrainer, a VLE curve without azeotropic point in the range of water composition from 0.3 up to 0.7 mole fraction could be obtained by both the experiment and the calculation using modified-UNIFAC model. For aniline and 1,3-diethylbenzene, however, VLE curve without azeotropic point could be obtained only at compositions above 0.7 mole fraction, which exhibited that they could be hardly utilized as the entrainer. Moreover, both furfural and MEK were verified to be improper entrainer since they formed an azeotropic phase. Relative volatility of water showed greater than 1.0 and increased with compositions, while those of the others decreased non-linearly, exhibiting that only water could be utilized as the proper entrainer for the extractive distillation of azeotropic acetone/methanol system.

Recently, dimethyl carbonate (DMC) is considered as an alternative of MTBE (methyl tert-butyl ether), additive for non-leaded gasoline with their fast biodegradation rate and low toxicity. DMC is usually synthesized so far by oxidative carbonylation of methanol, and recently developed synthetic process is also started with methanol. Since the phase equilibria of the system, consisted of DMC and methanol or other reaction products on different temperature and pressure is necessary for the optimum separation process design and operation. However the reported phase equilibria and physical properties for DMC mixtures in the Dortmund Data Bank (DDB; thermodynamic property data bank) are quite rare. Besides, infinitely dilute properties are not found. In this work, isothermal vapor-liquid equilibria at 333.15 K for methanol+DMC binary system and mixing properties, excess molar volume and viscosity deviation at 298.15 K are directly measured and correlated. Additionally, infinitely dilute activity coefficient of methanol in the DMC solvent at three different temperatures are measured and compared with predicted values using modified UNIFAC (Dortmund).

Ethanol/3-methyl-1-butanol 계에 대하여 정온하 즉 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75 및 $80^{\circ}C$에서 2성분 기-액 평형측정치를 측정하였다. 측정된 기-액평형치의 액조성과 비휘발도의 대수치와의 관계를 직교좌표에 plot하면 직선이 이루어지고 온도변화에 대한 각각의 직선이 평형임을 확인하였다. Ethanol/3-methyl-1-butanol 계에 대한 추산식은 각각의 온도변화에 따라 나타내었고 이식들을 이용하여 추산식을 구하였다. 추산식으로부터 구한 추산치와 측정치를 비교 검토한 결과 Ethanol/3-methyl-1-butanol 계에서는 기상조성의 몰분율은 ${\pm}0.00051$[-]의 오차 범위에서 잘 일치하는 것으로 나타났고, modified UNIFAC방법은 실측치와 비교한 평균오차는 ${\pm}0.0022$[-]에서 추산하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제안한 추산법이 2성분계 기-액평형치를 추산하는 방법으로 타당함을 확인하였다.

The new experimental data of liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) of aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) consisting of poly(ethylene glycol) 3000 + tri-potassium citrate at different pH were presented. It was found that an increase in pH resulted in the expansion of the two-phase region. The TLL and STL increased with increasing the pH values. The Merchuk equation can be appropriately employed to correlate the binodal curves and also the tie-line compositions were adjusted to both the Othmer-Tobias and Bancroft equations. In order to calculate the compositions of the phase and the ends of the tie-lines, density and refractive indices as two physical properties were used. Finally, the extended UNIQUAC, UNIFAC, Virial-(Mobalegholeslam & Bakhshi) and modified UNIQUAC-FV were used to measure the phase equilibria at different pH. The results of the models suggested that it can be used quite well to correlate the LLE in an aqueous solution of polymer-salt.
