EXAMINATION OF LIQUID-LIQUID EQUILIBRIA OF WATER + ACETIC ACID + CYCLOHEXANOL TERNARIES AT 298, 303 AND 316 K

Abstract

Experimental liquid-liquid equilibria of water + acetic acid + cyclohexanol system was investigated at 298.16 ± 0.2, 303.16 ± 0.2 and 313.16 ± 0.2 K. The reliability of experimental tie-line data were ascertained through an Othmer-Tobias plot. Distribution coefficient was evaluated over the immiscibility region. It is concluded that the high boiling solvent cyclohexanol is suitable separating agent for dilute aqueous acetic acid solutions.
