Dew points of binary carbon dioxide + water and ternary carbon dioxide + water + methanol mixtures: Measurement and modelling

Abstract Dew points for four carbon dioxide + water mixtures between 1.2×105 and 41.1×105 Pa in the temperature range from 251.9 to 288.2 K, and eight carbon dioxide + water + methanol mixtures between 1.2×105 and 43.5×105 Pa and temperatures from 246.0 to 289.0 K were experimentally determined. The experimental results obtained on the binary and ternary systems were analysed in terms of a predictive excess function–equation of state (EF–EOS) method, which reproduced the experimental dew point temperature data with absolute average deviation (AAD) between 0.8 and 1.8 K for the systems with water, and from 0.0 to 2.7 K for the systems with water and methanol. The experimental results obtained for carbon dioxide + water mixtures, with molar fraction of water lower than 0.00174, at pressure values higher than 5×105 Pa were also compared to a predictive equation of state model. It reproduced experimental dew point temperature data with AAD between 0.2 and 0.6 K.
