Abstract
Isothermal vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) data have been measured for the nitrogen + carbon monoxide binary system at 5 temperatures from 100.01 to 130.07 K, and at pressures from 0.37 to 3.35 MPa. This system had already been studied by different authors. Nevertheless, the existing literature data generally indicate high vapor pressure for pure CO and for the highest CO composition in the N2-CO binary VLE measurements. Our new VLE data have been measured using the “static-analytic” method, taking advantage of two pneumatic capillary samplers (Rolsi®, Armines' patent) coupled to an adapted apparatus able to work at cryogenic temperatures. The new data were compared with the predictions of the GERG equation of state and their consistency was checked by a Van Ness type test. We have observed that the isothermal P, x, y data were well represented with the Peng-Robinson equation of state, especially in the CO rich region.
