Abstract
In an equilibrium vessel, the solubilities of succinic acid in binary aqueous ethanol solvents were measured by the analytical stirred-flask method with the temperature ranging from 278.15 to 333.15 K at atmospheric pressure. Data on the corresponding solid–liquid equilibrium of succinic acid in binary aqueous ethanol solutions are essential for industrial design and further theoretical studies. The effect of solvent composition and temperature on the solubility is discussed. The solubility data were correlated with the Combined Nearly Ideal Binary Solvent/Redlich-Kister (CNIBS/R-K) model. The solubility measured in this study can be used for succinic acid purification or optical resolution by the preferential crystallization procedure.
