Abstract
Experimental tie-line data have been determined for the ternary system water + methyl tert-butyl ether + tert-amyl methyl ether and the quaternary systems water + methanol + methyl tert-butyl ether + tert-amyl methyl ether, and water + ethanol + methyl tert-butyl ether + tert-amyl methyl ether at 25°C and ambient pressure. The experimental results have been satisfactorily correlated using the modified UNIQUAC and extended UNIQUAC models with ternary and quaternary, in addition to binary parameters.
