How to choose the thermodynamic approach for this system
Thread Content
For a system consisting of water, chlorobenzene, and xylene, I’m having trouble choosing the appropriate thermodynamic method; using the wrong method results in large errors. Moreover, the boiling points of these three substances are all above 100 degrees, yet when they are mixed together, the bubble point temperature is only 92 degrees. What’s going on? Please give me some advice
NRTL can be considered; the azeotropy between water and xylene leads to a decrease in boiling point.
I used GS, which gave a value of 92 degrees, while NRTL yielded a value of only 55 degrees~~
Well, I agree with using the NRTL method; GS is mainly used in the petroleum industry
