Abstract

Solid-liquid saturation lines (pressure vs temperature for a saturated solution of given composition) were determined for n-octacosane in mixtures of n-decane and carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide content of the solutions ranged from 0 to 90 mol %, at pressures up to 25 MPa. The data were correlated by means of the perturbed hard sphere chain equation of state. The equation of state requires three pure component constants for each component plus three binary interaction parameters. Two of the interaction parameters were obtained from binary data. The third was adjusted to fit the ternary data. The correlation was satisfactory for carbon dioxide contents up to 80 mol %. For higher carbon dioxide levels the octacosane solubility predicted by the correlation was consistently low.
