Vapor–liquid equilibrium of carbon dioxide with ethyl caproate, ethyl caprylate and ethyl caprate at elevated pressures

Vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data were measured for CO2 with ethyl caproate, ethyl caprylate, and ethyl caprate using a semi-flow type apparatus at 308.2, 318.2 and 328.2 K over the pressure range from 1.6 to 9.2 MPa. In this paper, VLE data are reported. The VLE data were also correlated using the Soave–Redlich–Kwong and the Peng–Robinson equations of state with various mixing rules. It is shown that both equations of state agreed well with the experimental data.
