Computation of the Solubility of Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Supercritical Media Based on the Entropic Method of Similarity Theory

Theoretical Foundations of Chemical Engineering volume 53, pages 487–500 (2019)Cite this article

Abstract

The results of generalizing the solubility of aromatic hydrocarbons in supercritical carbon dioxide using the entropy method of similarity theory are presented. Experimental data from different authors on the solubility of 11 substances studied in a temperature range from 300 to 350 K (728 experimental points and 50 isotherms) are subjected to generalization. It is shown that the dependency makes it possible to compute the solubility of aromatic hydrocarbons subjected to generalization in supercritical carbon dioxide to an acceptable accuracy.
