Abstract
Today development, design, and optimization of the various processes is carried out with the help of process simulators. The reliability of the results mainly depends on the quality of the thermodynamic model and the model parameters used. While gE models can be applied for calculation of the phase equilibrium behavior of multicomponent systems using only binary experimental data, group contribution methods like UNIFAC or modified UNIFAC Dortmund allow prediction of the required thermophysical properties using only a limited number of group interaction parameters. For systems containing supercritical components equations of state like Soave–Redlich–Kwong or Peng–Robinson or group contribution equations of state (GCEOS) like the predictive Soave–Redlich–Kwong (PSRK) or the volume-translated Peng–Robinson group contribution equations of state (VTPR) can be applied. In different papers it was already shown that VTPR is a very powerful thermodynamic model. In this paper new group interaction parameters for 192 group combinations are presented, so that the actual matrix now contains group interaction parameters for 252 group combinations. In this paper predicted results of the VTPR group contribution equation of state are compared with the results obtained using modified UNIFAC Dortmund or the PSRK method.
