Abstract
The fugacity coefficients of hydrogen in binary mixtures with carbon dioxide were measured using a physical equilibrium technique. This technique involves the use of an experimental chamber which is divided into two regions by a semipermeable membrane. Hydrogen can penetrate and pass through the membrane, while the other component (in this case carbon dioxide) cannot. At equilibrium, pure hydrogen will permeate into one “compartment” of the chamber, while the binary mixture occupies the other compartment. Thus, the pressure of pure hydrogen on one side of the membrane approaches the partial pressure of hydrogen in the mixture on the other side of the membrane. This allows the direct measurement of the hydrogen component fugacity at a given mixture mole fraction. In this study, results are reported for measurements made on the hydrogen+carbon dioxide binary at 80°C (353 K), 130°C (403 K), 160°C (433 K), and 190°C (463 K), each at a total mixture pressure of 3.45 MPa. The experimental results are compared with predictions from the Redlich-Kwong, Peng-Robinson, and extended corresponding-states models.
