“…In the last decade or so, however, other solubility models have been developed that make use of one single EOS (e.g., Peng-Robinson) to compute the properties of both the aqueous and compressed-gas phases at equilibrium. These models, reported primarily in the chemical engineering literature, have been applied to pure CO 2 -H 2 O systems (e.g., Shyu et al, 1997) and to systems including electrolyte solutions (e.g., Harvey and Prausnitz, 1989;Zuo and Guo, 1991;Søreide and Whitson, 1992;Sørensen et al, 2002;Masoudi et al, 2004). The main drawback of these models is that an iterative procedure must be used to solve the EOS twice, once for the gas-phase composition and a second time for the liquid-phase composition.…”
