In this work, the Peng–Robinson
(PR) equation of state (EoS)
and MHV2 mixing rule that were combined with UNIFAC and NRTL G
E models were used to predict vapor–liquid
phase equilibrium (VLE) data for CO2–hydrocarbon
systems. These systems included 12 binary systems and three ternary
systems. The PRMHV2-UNIFAC model was used to calculate the bubble
pressure, and the average absolute relative deviations (AARD %) were
17.49–32.20% for 12 binary systems. For the PRMHV2-NRTL model,
the binary interaction parameters of the NRTL model dependent on temperature
were regressed based on the binary VLE data. These new interaction
parameters were used to estimate CO2–hydrocarbon
VLE data for binary and ternary systems. The bubble pressure was predicted
by the PRMHV2-NRTL model, and the AARD % values were 1.52–9.44%
for binary systems, which were lower than the value of the PRMHV2-UNIFAC
model. The PRMHV2-UNIFAC and PRMHV2-NRTL models were also used to
calculate the liquid phase mole fraction of CO2–hydrocarbon
ternary systems, and the average absolute deviations (AAD %) were
less than 20.70 and 8.54%, respectively.
