Abstract
The objective of this study was to determine the steric effect of the alcohol solvent on the ternary liquid-liquid equilibrium for β-caryophyllene + alcohol (ethanol, tert-butanol, and 1-octanol) + water systems at 303.15 K and atmospheric pressure. Gas chromatography was used for the analysis. The experimental data obtained in this study correlated with the NRTL and UNIQUAC models. The steric effect of the solvent is an important factor in determining the suitable alcohol solvent for this ternary system. Based on the steric effect of the three alcohols used, it can be concluded that the solvent with the best correlation is ethanol.
