A review of the isobaric (vapor plus liquid plus liquid) equilibria of multicomponent systems and the experimental methods used in their investigation
An overview of the multicomponent systems for which isobaric (vapor + liquid + liquid) equilibrium (VLLE) data has been published, is presented. This overview comprises 36 ternary and three quaternary systems. For each one of these systems is specified a reference, pressure range, experimental method and the amount of equilibrium data determined. This is followed by a brief description for each experimental method of the specific procedure carried out to determine the (vapor + liquid) equilibrium in the case where the liquid is heterogeneous. Lastly, a final assessment is presented of the experimental procedures used to determine the (vapor + liquid + liquid) equilibria (VLLE). (c) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
