Description
Summary:	(1995). These data include two ternary systems of n- A new comprehensive semiempirical approach (CSA) has been algorithm that allows the user to tune the input parameters, been used to run the data from Billman (1989) and Beladi compositions are different, and one ternary system of n- considers mutual solubility between water and hydrocarbons. data and yi tuning value. They all matched each other in data has been tuned to satisfy the following material balance decane/n-pentadecane/water. The vapor phase composition (yi) developed to calculate three-phase water/hydrocarbons equation: [] The approachhas been verified by comparing equilibria. It uses both laboratory data (stagewise from 0.62 to 60.6%. The oleic phase composition can be used heptane/n-dodecane/water, for which their initial overall higher the vapor-oleic three-phase K-values are. The aqueous hydrocarbons in the aqueous phase is insignificant, i.e. vapor phase composition (vi). In this study, the CSA has is also shown that the lighter the hydrocarbon component, the isochoric distillation data) and Peng-Robinson EOS. It neglected. It is shown in this study that vapor-oleic three- of the systems. The CSA also includes a self-tuning phase composition in this study shows that solubility of phase K-values are slightly dependent upon composition. It some range of data uncertainty. The data uncertainty ranges the calculated vapor phase composition (yi calc ) with yi The CSA calculates phase equilibria by applying the thermodynamic equalities between phases and material balance to show that solubility of water in oleic phase cannot be
