Abstract
The solubility of different gases (carbon dioxide, methane, ethane, carbon monoxide and hydrogen) in ionic liquids with an alkyl sulfate anion has been modeled with the Group Contribution equation of state developed by Skjold-Jørgensen. New gas solubility measurements have been carried out with a high pressure magnetic suspension balance in order to cover pressure and temperature ranges not considered in previous studies and to obtain more experimental information for the correlation of parameters of the equation of state. New solubility measurements include the solubility of carbon dioxide in 1-ethyl 3-methyl imidazolium ethyl sulfate [emim][EtSO4] at temperatures of 298K and 348K and pressures ranging from 0.3MPa to 6.5MPa, the solubility of methane in [emim][EtSO4] at a temperature of 293K and pressures ranging from 0.2MPa to 10.2MPa, and the solubility of ethane in [emim][EtSO4] at temperatures of 323K and 350K and pressures ranging from 0.2MPa to 4MPa. Results show that the Group Contribution equation of state can be used to describe the solubility of gases in alkyl sulfate ionic liquids as well as infinite dilution coefficients of alkanes in the ionic liquids, with average deviations between experiments and calculations ranging from 1% to 10% in the case of mixtures with CO2, CO, CH4 and H2 with the alkyl sulfate ionic liquids to up to 34% in the case of the solubility of ethane in [emim][EtSO4].
