Abstract
(Liquid + liquid) equilibrium (LLE) data for (water + propionic acid + 2-ethyl-1-hexanol) were determined at atmospheric pressure over the temperature range of (298.15 to 308.15) K. A type-1 LLE phase diagram was obtained for this ternary system. The LLE data were correlated fairly well with UNIQUAC model, indicating the reliability of the UNIQUAC equation for this ternary system. The average root mean square deviation between the observed and calculated mole fractions was 1.57%. Distribution coefficients and separation factors were measured to evaluate the extracting capability of the solvent.
