Thermodynamic assessment of the KCl–K2CO3–NaCl–Na2CO3 system

Phase equilibria and thermodynamic properties of the KCl–K₂CO₃–NaCl–Na₂CO₃ system were analyzed on the basis of the thermodynamic evaluation of the KCl–NaCl,KCl–K₂CO₃,NaCl–Na₂CO₃,K₂CO₃–Na₂CO₃ and KCl–K₂CO₃–NaCl–Na₂CO₃ systems. The Gibbs energies of individual phases was approximated by two-sublattice models for ionic liquids and crystals. Most of the experimental information was well described by the present set of thermodynamic parameters. The lowest monovariant eutectic temperature in the KCl–NaCl–Na₂CO₃ system is located at 573 ^°C, with a composition of X_Na2CO3=0.31,X_KCl=0.35 and X_NaCl=0.34.
