Abstract

New data of the vapor-liquid equilibria of the system methyl ethyl ketone-diethyl ketone-methyl Isobutyl ketone were obtained at 760 mmHg. The system presents a small deviation from ideal solution behavior, and the activity coefficients were satisfactorily correlated according to the Redlich-Kister equation by considering only the binary data. The Wilson correlation was found to have similar ability of predicting the vapor phase composition as the Redlich-Kister equation. Boiling points of the ternary mixture were predicted by an empirical correlation within a maximum relative error of ±1 % and a mean error of ±0.3%.
