Abstract:
In this work, the liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) data for systems containing palm oil or palm oil fractions, short-chain alcohols (ethanol), and water (5% mass fraction in aqueous alcohols), were experimentally determined at temperature 298.15K under atmospheric pressure. Two thermodynamic models (NRTL model and UNIFAC model) were used to correlate the experimental liquid-liquid equilibrium data. The obtained interaction parameters were used to describe the liquid-liquid equilibrium of real systems.
