Abstract

A semiempirical equation is proposed to calculate the solubilities of gas systems containing H2, CO, CO2, N2, Ar, CH4, C2H6, and C3H8 in normal paraffin hydrocarbons from C5 to C20 and higher over wide temperature and pressure ranges. The applicability of the equation proposed is evaluated.
