LIQUID-LIQUID EQUILIBRIA OF TERNARY AQUEOUE MIXTURE CONTAINING ACETIC ACID WITH TRIETHYL AMINE

Liquid-liquid equilibrium data were measured for the ternary system containing aqueous acetic acid and an organic solvent (triethyl amine) at 298.2 K underatmospheric pressure. Phase diagram was obtained by determining tie-lines data. The tie-lines data were compared with the results calculated by the NRTLmethod. As a measure of goodness of correlations, root-mean square deviations have been used. The experimental tie lines data were employed to test consistency with the Hand equation.
