ABSTRACT

Liquid-liquid equilibrium data of ternary systems are required for the design of liquid extraction processes. Also, there is a constant need for phase equilibrium data of these systems for simulation and optimize of separation equipment, valuable information about the molecular interactions, macroscopic behavior of fluid mixtures, and can be used to test and improve thermodynamic models for calculating and predicting fluid phase equilibria. A large amount of investigation has been carried out in recent years on the LLE measurements of ternary systems, in order to understand and provide further information about the phase behavior of such systems [1-6].
