Abstract

Isothermal bubble and dew points, saturated molar volumes, and mixture critical points for binary mixtures of carbon dioxide+chloroform (trichloromethane) (CO 2/CHCl 3) have been measured in the temperature region 303.15–333.15 K and at pressures up to 100 bar. Mixture critical points are reported at 313.15, 323.15, and 333.15 K. The data were modeled with the Peng–Robinson equation of state using both the van der Waals-1 (vdW-1) mixing rule and the Wong–Sandler (WS) mixing rule incorporating the UNIQUAC excess free energy model. The WS mixing rule provided a better representation of the data than did the vdW-1 mixing rule, though with three adjustable parameters instead of one. The extrapolating ability of both of the mixing rules was investigated. Using the parameters regressed at 323.15 K, the WS mixing rule yielded better extrapolations for the composition dependence at 303.15, 313.15, and 333.15 K than the vdW-1 mixing rule.
