Abstract

We saw in the previous Chapter, Section 13.4, that high pressure vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) involves systems where some, or all, components have low boiling point temperatures at atmospheric pressure, typically mixtures of hydrocarbons — alone or with some inorganic gases: N2, CO2, CO, etc. (On occasion, small amounts of water are also present). This is the type of systems that we will focus our attention to.
