Abstract
The search of new renewable fuels and the interest of finding new uses for the abundant subproducts of many industrial processes have prompt Eni S.p.A to develop a technology for producing biofuels from glycerol. One of the compounds involved in this process is 2-ethyl-4-ethoxymethyl-1,3‑dioxolane (PrEDO). In this paper their temperature - vapor pressure curve has been determined experimentally as well as binary vapor–liquid equilibrium data at different pressures of systems where this compound is involved.The experimental vapor pressure data of PrEDO have been fitted with the Antoine equation. The vapor liquid equilibrium data have been correlated and calculated with UNIFAC, UNIQUAC, NRTL and Wilson to analyze their use when designing distillation processes.
