Abstract
The solubility of carbon dioxide in two solvents, 2,5-dimethylfuran and methyl levulinate, were measured to high pressure, up to 9.1 MPa, at three different temperatures (283.15, 303.15 and 323.15) K. The new data were measured using both the isothermal synthetic technique and the variable volume synthetic method. Two methods were utilised to provide a level of data validation. The uncertainties in the measured data were critically estimated. The experimental phase equilibrium data were modeled using the Peng-Robinson equation of state and the Wong-Sandler mixing rule with a single set of binary interaction parameters for each system. The data indicated that the solubility of carbon dioxide in both 2,5-dimethylfuran and methyl levulinate at high pressures was relatively low, suggesting a low capacity of these biofuels to dissolve carbon dioxide at high pressure.
