Abstract
Azeotropes are boiling liquid mixtures which have identical vapor and liquid compositions. Known as polyazeotropy, azeotropic mixtures may exhibit more than one azeotrope at a given temperature or pressure. While the thermodynamic condition for azeotrope formation in vapor-liquid equilibrium is well established, thermodynamic modeling of mixtures exhibiting polyazeotropy remains challenging and prior modeling studies often failed to satisfactorily correlate the polyazeotropic behavior of associating systems. Based on the association NRTL model, this study presents successful correlation and analysis of double azeotrope formation for three diverse systems: strongly associating methanol + diethylamine binary, weakly associating ammonia + pentafluoroethane binary, and non-associating benzene + hexafluorobenzene binary systems. These systems exhibit polyazeotropic behavior as the temperature increases and approaches their Bancroft points.
