TL;DR: In this paper, the data in pressure, temperature, and density are successfully correlated by the Leung-Griffiths model as modified by Moldover, Rainwater, and co-workers.
Abstract: Vapor-liquid equilibrium data ertending to critical pressures are reported for mixtures of propane with each of the hexane isomers, n-hexane, 2-methylpentane, 3-methylpentane, 2,2-dimethylbutane, and 2,3-dimethylbutane. Dew-bubble curves for five different compositions are tabulated for each of the five mixtures. The data in pressure, temperature, and density are successfully correlated by the Leung-Griffiths model as modified by Moldover, Rainwater, and co-workers. The coexistence surfaces are all quite similar with only subtle differences due to the different shapes of the isomeric hexane molecules

TL;DR: In this article, a computational cross-flow extraction is designed on the basis of the smoothed phase diagram and is experimentally validated, where the K-ratios for castor oil, soybean oil, and hexane smoothed the liquid−liquid equilibrium data.
Abstract: Liquid−liquid equilibria for the ternary system castor oil + soybean oil + hexane are studied at 298.15 K. Mixtures are equilibrated in a temperature-controlled water bath. After evaporation of hexane, the oil compositions of each phase are determined by a combination of gravimetric measurements and the analysis of fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) using gas chromatography. Since castor and soybean triglycerides are a mixture of five or six fatty acids, the castor and soybean fractions are characterized by the relative concentration of ricinoleic acid. Fitting the K-ratios for castor oil, soybean oil, and hexane smoothed the liquid−liquid equilibrium data. A computational cross-flow extraction is designed on the basis of the smoothed phase diagram and is experimentally validated.
