Predicting the thermodynamic properties and dielectric behavior of electrolyte solutions using the SAFT‐VR+DE equation of state

We extend the SAFT‐VR+DE equation of state to describe 19 aqueous electrolyte solutions with both a fully dissociated and a partially dissociated model. The approach is found to predict thermodynamic properties such as the osmotic coefficient, water activity coefficient, and solution density, across different salt concentrations at room temperature and pressure in good agreement with experiment using only one or two fitted parameters. At higher temperatures and pressures, without any additional fitting, the theory is found to be in qualitative agreement with experimental mean ionic activities and osmotic coefficients. The behavior of the dielectric constant as a function of salt concentration is also reported for the first time using a statistical associating fluid theory (SAFT)‐based equation of state. At high salt concentrations, the stronger electrostatic interactions between the ionic species due to the dielectric decrement, is captured through the inclusion of ion association. © 2015 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 61: 3053–3072, 2015     

On the construction of binary mixture p‐x and T‐x diagrams from isochoric thermodynamics

In this work, we describe how to efficiently and reliably calculate p‐x and T‐x diagrams for binary mixtures of fluids. The method is based on the use of the Helmholtz energy density as the fundamental thermodynamic potential. Through the use of temperature and molar concentrations of the components as the independent variables, differential relationships can be constructed along the phase envelope surface, and this system of differential equations is then integrated to construct isotherms and isobars cutting through the phase envelope. The use of the Helmholtz energy density as the fundamental potential allows several models to be considered in this formalism, including cubic equations of state (Peng‐Robinson, GC‐VTPR, etc.) as well as high‐accuracy multifluid equations of state (the so‐called GERG mixture model). Examples of each class are presented, demonstrating the flexibility of this method. Source code, examples, and comprehensive analytic derivatives are provided in the Supporting Information. © 2018 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 64: 2745–2757, 2018     

Application of tobacco hairy roots for the removal of malachite green from aqueous solutions: Experimental design,kinetic, equilibrium,and thermodynamic studies

Tobacco hairy roots (THR) were used to evaluate its potential for the biosorption and removal of malachite green (MG) from aqueous solutions. A 3² full factorial design was applied to study the effects of pH and THR concentration on the biosorption capacity. Under the optimal conditions (pH of 7.0 and THR concentration of 1?g?L^?1), dye removal efficiency was around 92%. Experimental data obtained from kinetic studies demonstrated good concordance with the pseudo-second-order model. Equilibrium studies were developed and the data were evaluated by Langmuir, Freundlich, and Sips models, being the Sips model the most adequate (maximum biosorption capacity of 277.2?mg?g^?1). Thermodynamically, the biosorption of MG on THR proved to be endothermic, spontaneous, and favorable. Desorption was feasible under acidic conditions and the biosorbent could be reused three times. THR was tested in simulated effluent and the removal percentage was 87%, demonstrating that this material is a promising biosorbent which can be used to treat colored wastewaters.     

Synthesis,curing behavior and thermal properties of fluorene-containing benzoxazines based on linear and branched butylamines

A series of fluorene-containing benzoxazine monomers based on linear and branched butylamines were successfully synthesized in high purity and good yield through a facile one-pot procedure by the reaction of 9,9-bis-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-fluorene with paraformaldehyde and isomeric butylamines. The chemical structures of the target monomers were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), Elemental analysis, ¹H and ¹³C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The curing behavior of benzoxazine monomers was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and FT-IR. The thermal properties of cured polybenzoxazines were measured by DSC and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results reveal that the polarity of solvent and the basicity of butylamines produce clear effects on the synthesis of the butylamine-based benzoxazine monomers. Also, the basicity and steric effect of butylamines exhibit significant effects on the curing behavior of benzoxazine monomers and the thermal properties of their polymers. The glass transition temperature and thermal stability of branched butylamine-based polybenzoxazines are higher than those of the corresponding linear butylamine-based polybenzoxazine and traditional bisphenol A-based polybenzoxazines.     

Modeling thermodynamic properties of aqueous single‐solute and multi‐solute sugar solutions with PC‐SAFT

The Perturbed‐Chain Statistical Association Fluid Theory is applied to simultaneously describe various thermodynamic properties (solution density, osmotic coefficient, solubility) of aqueous solutions containing a monosaccharide or a disaccharide. The 13 sugars considered within this work are: glucose, fructose, fucose, xylose, maltose, mannitol, mannose, sorbitol, xylitol, galactose, lactose, trehalose, and sucrose. Four adjustable parameters (three pure‐sugar parameters and a k_ij between sugar and water that was allowed to depend linearly on temperature) were obtained from solution densities and osmotic coefficients of binary sugar/water solutions at 298.15 K available in literature. Using these parameters, the sugar solubility in water and in ethanol could be predicted satisfactorily. Further, osmotic coefficients and solubility in aqueous solutions containing two solutes (sugar/sugar, sugar/salt) were predicted (no additional k_ij parameters between the two solutes) reasonably. The model was also applied to predict the solubility of a sugar in a solvent mixture (e.g., water/ethanol) without additional fitting parameters. © 2013 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 59: 4794–4805, 2013     

Room temperature ferromagnetic behavior,linear and nonlinear optical properties of KNbO3 microrods

Microrods of potassium niobate (KNbO₃) were synthesized at 700, 800 and 900 °C by solid state reaction method and their structural, morphological, linear optical, nonlinear optical and magnetic properties were studied. X-ray diffraction and Rietveld refinement reveal that all the prepared KNbO₃ samples belong to single phase orthorhombic structure with space group of Cm2m. Fourier transform infrared and Raman spectral analyses confirmed the Nb-O symmetric stretching vibrational modes of NbO₆ octahedron. The grain growth direction (001) and inter planar spacing (0.38 nm) of KNbO₃ were determined by high resolution transmission electron microscopy. Field emission scanning electron microscopy images revealed that KNbO₃ are formed with nearly rod shape morphology with average diameter varying from 471 to 678 nm and length lies between 1.2 and 2.3 µm. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy studies confirmed the presence of K, Nb and O elements in the KNbO₃ matrix. UV–visible diffuse reflectance spectra showed that the band gap of KNbO₃ microrods varies between 3.18 and 3.22 eV. The existence of blue (492 nm) and green (521 nm) emissions evidently showed the presence of oxygen vacancy in the samples. All the synthesized KNbO₃ microrods exhibited relatively high SHG efficiency as compared with that of the standard KDP. Vibrating sample magnetometer analysis showed the existence of ferromagnetic behavior at room temperature. The saturation magnetization (M_s) of KNbO₃ microrods lies between 0.015 and 0.012 emu g^?1 and coercive field (H_c) varies in the range from 489 to 420 Oe.     

Statistical mechanics and artificial intelligence to model the thermodynamic properties of pure and mixture of ionic liquids

In this paper, the volumetric properties of pure and mixture of ionic liquids are predicted using the developed statistical mechanical equation of state in different temperatures, pressures and mole fractions. The temperature dependent parameters of the equation of state have been calculated using corresponding state correlation based on only the density at 298.15 K as scaling constants. The obtained mean of deviations of modified equation of state for density of al pure ionic liquids for 1662 data points was 0.25%. In addition, the performance of the arti-ficial neural network (ANN) with principle component analysis (PCA) based on back propagation training with 28 neurons in hidden layer for predicting of behavior of binary mixtures of ionic liquids was investigated. The AADs of a col ection of 568 data points for al binary systems using the EOS and the ANN at various temperatures and mole fractions are 1.03%and 0.68%, respectively. Moreover, the excess molar volume of all binary mixtures is predicted using obtained densities of EOS and ANN, and the results show that these properties have good agree-ment with literature.     

Simultaneous prediction of the critical and sub-critical phase behavior in mixtures using equations of state II. Carbon dioxide-heavy n-alkanes

In the present study we present the final development of the Global Phase Diagram-based semi-predictive approach (GPDA), which requires only 2-3 key data points of one homologue to predict the complete phase behavior of the whole homologues series. The ability of GPDA to predict phase equilibria in CO₂-heavy n-alkanes is compared with the equations of state LCVM and PSRK. It is demonstrated that both LCVM and PSRK are more correlative rather than predictive because their parameters are evaluated by the local fit of a considerable amount of VLE experimental data. In addition, these models fail to predict accurately the VLE of systems, which have not been considered in the evaluation of their parameters. They are also particularly inaccurate in predicting LLE and critical lines. In contrast, GPDA is reliable in the entire temperature range and for all types of phase equilibria. It yields an accurate prediction of the global phase behavior in the homologues series and their critical lines. Moreover, increasing asymmetry does not affect the reliability of GPDA; it predicts very accurately even the data of the heaviest homologues of the series.     

CO2混合物热物性在CCS研究中的作用:实验数据、理论模型和典型应用

二氧化碳捕集与封存（CCS）各工艺过程的设计、运行都依赖于对CO₂及其混合物热物理性质的深入理解。同时，CCS的规模化发展和商业化进程，对CO₂混合物及其热物性的准确性提出了更高的要求。本文从实验数据、理论模型和典型应用3个方面综述了CO₂及其混合物热物性的发展现状，并尝试对发展趋势进行归纳。在实验研究方面，CO₂混合体系的研究进展视组分不同，差异较大，其中CO₂-N₂、CO₂-CH₄、CO₂-H₂O和CO₂-H₂二元体系已形成较完善的物性数据库，而CO₂-NH₃、CO₂-NO _x 和CO₂-CO体系的物性数据还比较欠缺；在物性估算方面，面向CCS的物性估算模型研究自2008年开始活跃，基于不同理论构架，目前已逐步形成面向CCS的多元化的物性估算体系。物性研究在CCS中的应用主要体现在物性是支撑CCS过程研究的基础，其不准确性在过程模拟或计算中会被“放大”，从而影响过程评估的准确性，本文从物性在循环构建和能效分析中的作用以及CO₂水合物的形成3个方面入手做了说明。文章最后对面向CCS的物性研究趋势进行了梳理，对分子模拟技术、通用性强的物性估算模型和物性在过程设计和循环分析中的角色进行了展望。     

Effect of nanoparticle loading and magnetic field application on the thermodynamic,optical, and rheological behavior of thermoresponsive polymer solutions

Although processing via external stimuli is a promising technique to tune the structure and properties of polymeric materials, the impact of magnetic fields on phase transitions in thermoresponsive polymer solutions is not well-understood. As nanoparticle (NP) addition is also known to impact these thermodynamic and optical properties, synergistic effects from combining magnetic fields with NP incorporation provide a novel route for tuning material properties. Here, the thermodynamic, optical, and rheological properties of aqueous poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) (PNIPAM) solutions are examined in the presence of hydrophilic silica NPs and magnetic fields, individually and jointly, via Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), magneto-turbidimetry, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and magneto-rheology. While NPs and magnetic fields both reduce the phase separation energy barrier and lower optical transition temperatures by altering hydrogen bonding (H-bonding), infrared spectra demonstrate that the mechanism by which these changes occur is distinct. Magnetic fields primarily alter solvent polarization while NPs provide PNIPAM–NP H-bonding sites. Combining NP addition with field application uniquely alters the solution environment and results in field-dependent rheological behavior that is unseen in polymer-only solutions. These investigations provide fundamental understanding on the interplay of magnetic fields and NP addition on PNIPAM thermoresponsivity which can be harnessed for increasingly complex stimuli-responsive materials.     

Simultaneous prediction of the critical and sub-critical phase behavior in mixtures using equations of state IV. Mixtures of chained n-alkanes

The present study compares the ability of two semi-predictive approaches, namely the global phase diagram approach (GPDA) and the predictive Soave-Redlich-Kwong model (PSRK), for describing the experimental data in the binary homologous series of n-alkanes. A method to expand the application of the GPDA model to the heavy n-alkanes, absent in the Design Institute for Physical Property Data (DIPPR) data base, is proposed. Since both models do not implement the binary data of the systems under consideration for evaluation of their parameters, they appear here as entirely predictive. It is shown that both models are reliable in predicting the data of symmetric systems and they yield deviations that do not significantly exceed the possible experimental uncertainties. The robustness and reliability of GPDA in comparison with PSRK becomes evident predicting the data of asymmetric systems. PSRK tends to overestimate the liquid-liquid immiscibility range and as a result it over predicts the phase equilibria pressures and fails to describe the global phase behavior. In contrast, GPDA describes the global phase behavior exactly and yields accurate predictions of both the critical and the sub-critical data even for very asymmetric systems, such as propane—n-hexatetracontane.     

Measurement and correlation of the individual ionic activity coefficients of aqueous electrolyte solutions of KF,NaF and KBr

Ion selective electrodes were used to measure the activity coefficients of individual ions at 298.2 K in aqueous solutions of KF, KBr and NaF up to 3, 2 and 1 molal, respectively. The mean ionic activity coefficients of the electrolytes obtained from the values of individual ions show good agreement with values reported in the literature. The experimental results confirm that the activity coefficients are different for the anion and the cation in an aqueous solution of a single electrolyte. It is also confirmed that the deviation from ideality for each ion depends on its counterion. The Khoshkbarchi—Vera equation was used to correlate the experimental data.     

Modification and magnetization of MOF (HKUST-1) for the removal of Sr2+ from aqueous solutions. Equilibrium,kinetic and thermodynamic modeling studies

In this research, metal-organic framework MOF(HKUST-1) was synthesized, magnetized and modified by hexacyanoferrate in order to prepare an efficient adsorbent for the removal of Sr²⁺ from aqueous solutions. The synthesized adsorbent was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, thermal methods (TG-DTG[Themogravimetry- Derivative Theromogravimetry]), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The non-magnetized (MOF/KNiFC[potassium nickel hexacyanoferrate]) and magnetized (MOF/Fe₃O₄/KNiFC) adsorbents were then employed for the removal of Sr²⁺ from aqueous solutions. The adsorption capacity of 110 and 90 mg.g^?1 was obtained, respectively, for MOF/KNiFC and MOF/Fe₃O₄/KNiFC. The adsorption process was kinetically fast and the equilibration was established within 45 min. The magnetic capability of the adsorbent examined by the vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) technique indicated that the used adsorbent was capable of separating from the solution by applying an external magnetic field. The adsorbent showed good selectivity toward Sr²⁺ in the presence of Cs⁺, Na⁺, Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺ and Ba²⁺. The regenerated adsorbent retained more than 90% of its initial capacity. Different isotherm models including Langmuir, Freundlich, Tempkin, Sips and Redlich–Peterson were employed to examine the applicability of the isotherms to the experimental data. It was concluded that the data was best fitted to the Langmuir isotherm model. The thermodynamic parameters showed that the process was endothermic.     

A lattice‐fluid,group‐contribution treatment of the glass transition of homopolymers,copolymers, and polymer solutions

The glass transition temperature of polymers and polymer solutions was approached through a combination of the group‐contribution, lattice‐fluid equation of state and the Gibbs–DiMarzio criterion. The model assumes zero entropy at the glass transition temperature and treats molecules as semiflexible chains. This stiffness is associated with a flex energy obtained from the glass transition temperature at atmospheric pressure. Whereas the application of the model is straightforward for homopolymers and polymer solutions, a new formalism using the dyad concept was developed for copolymers. It takes into account the copolymer composition as well as the sequencing of the monomers. The results obtained are consistent with experimental data. For polymer solutions, the model predictions are semiquantitative depending on the system. The interaction parameter required for binary systems was found to have little effect on the glass transition temperature predictions. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Use of the unique properties of fluoropolymers in the design of new,highly effective,ecologically friendly technologies for the fine purification of hydrogen halides and their aqueous solutions

A number of properties of fluoropolymers in aqueous solutions of hydrogen halides were investigated. The results enable fluoropolymers to be used in the purification of hydrogen halides and their aqueous solutions. The hydrophobicity of fluoropolymers and their diffusion permeability enable production of hydrogen halides of low moisture content. A second unit for hydroionic convection is based on hydroionic repulsion (determined by the hydrophobic properties of the fluoropolymer) and ionic elimination. The two units enable the highly effective, ecologically safe manufacture of highly pure hydrogen halides and their aqueous solutions to be carried out with minimum feedstock, cooling water, and power consumption. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Measurements and modeling of high-pressure excess molar enthalpies and isothermal vapor-liquid equilibria of the carbon dioxide + N,N-dimethylformamide system

Mixtures of supercritical CO₂ and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) are very often involved in supercritical fluid applications and their thermodynamic properties are required to understand and design these processes. Excess molar enthalpies () for CO₂ + DMF mixtures were measured using an isothermal high-pressure flow calorimeter under conditions of temperature and pressure typically used in supercritical processes: 313.15 and 323.15 K at 9.00, 12.00, 15.00 and 18.00 MPa and 333.15 K at 9.00 and 15.00 MPa. The Peng-Robinson and the Soave-Redlich-Kwong equations of state were used in conjunction with the classical mixing rules to model the literature vapor-liquid equilibrium and critical data and the excess enthalpy data. In most cases, CO₂ + DMF mixtures showed very exothermic mixing and excess molar enthalpies exhibited a minimum in the CO₂-rich region. The lowest value (−4526 J mol⁻¹) was observed for a CO₂ mole fraction value of 0.713 at 9.00 MPa and 333.15 K. On the other hand, at 9.00 MPa and 323.15 and 333.15 K varies linearly with CO₂ mole fraction in the two-phase region where a gaseous and a liquid mixture of fixed composition are in equilibrium. The effects of pressure and temperature on the excess molar enthalpy are large. For a given mole fraction, mixtures become less exothermic as pressure increases or temperature decreases. These excess enthalpy data were analyzed in terms of molecular interactions, phase equilibria, density and critical parameters previously reported for CO₂ + DMF. All throughout this paper, the key concepts and modeling tools originate from the work of van der Waals: the paper is intended as a small piece of recognition of van der Waals overwhelming contributions to thermodynamics.
