Appendix F Estimation of Activity Coefficients

Chapter 6 presents several equations for representing activity coefficients as a function of composition. These equations contain binary parameters that are obtained from fitting to binary data. While many binary systems have been studied experimentally (compilations have been published, for example, by Wichterle et al., 1973; many volumes by Gmehling and Onken, starting in 1977; Hirata et al,. 1975; many volumes by Maczynski et al,. starting in 1976; Ohe, 1989, and other titles in Physical Sciences Data Series; continuing compilations by DIPPR-AIChE, New York), there are also many other binaries where only fragmentary data, or no data at all, are available.

When interest is directed at a binary ...
