The
isobaric vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for the
cyclohexanone + benzene, cyclohexanone + toluene, and cyclohexanone
+ p-xylene systems at a pressure of 101.3 kPa were
measured with a modified Rose-type recirculating still. The thermodynamic
consistency of the experimental data was checked with the Herington,
Van Ness, infinite dilution, and pure-component consistency tests.
In addition, the VLE data were correlated by the nonrandom two-liquid
(NRTL), Universal Quasichemical (UNIQUAC), and Wilson activity coefficient
models, and the binary interaction parameters for the three thermodynamic
models were regressed. The calculated results for the three models
show good agreement with the experimental data. The UNIFAC model was
also used to predict the VLE data and presented good results for the
three systems.
