Infinite dilution binary diffusion coefficients of hydrotreating compounds in tetradecane in the temperature range from (310 to 475) K
Infinite dilution diffusion coefficients of benzothiophene, dibenzothiophene, acridine, naphthalene, and anthracene in tetradecane have been measured in a temperature range from (313.2 to 473.2) K using the Taylor dispersion technique. Predicted values based on the correlations of Wilke-Chang and Tyn-Calus deviate up to 35%. An Arrhenius type of equation was used to describe the temperature dependence of the diffusion coefficients with an accuracy on average of less than 5%.
