Prediction of thermophysical and transport properties of ternary organic non-electrolyte systems including water by polynomials

Abstract

The description and prediction of the thermophysical and transport properties of ternary organic non-electrolyte systems including water by the polynomial equations are reviewed. Empirical equations of Radojković et al. (also known as Redlich-Kister), Kohler, Jacob-Fitzner, Colinet, Tsao-Smith, Toop, Scatchard et al. and Rastogi et al. are compared with experimental data of available papers appeared in well know international journals (Fluid Phase Equilibria, Journal of Chemical and Engineering Data, Journal of Chemical Thermodynamics, Journal of Solution Chemistry, Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Journal of Molecular Liquids, Thermochimica Acta, etc.). The applicability of empirical models to estimate excess molar volumes, VE, excess viscosities, ηE, excess free energies of activation of a viscous flow

The elemental composition of halophytes correlates with key morphological adaptations and taxonomic groups

“…The relationship between the chemical composition of plants and saline condition is of great importance to understand plant adaptation under high salinity. Low leaf K, Ca, and Mg concentrations along with the accumulation of Na were documented in plants growing in high salinity, and have been recorded for some eu-halophytes including many Chenopodiaceae (Albert and Kinzel, 1973;Albert and Popp, 1977;Gulzar et al, 2003;Kachout et al, 2011;Khan et al, 2000a, b;Kudo et al, 2010;Milić et al, 2013;Wiebe and Walter, 1972;Zoerb et al, 2013). Several studies have shown that the accumulation of certain elements in the leaves of some species of eu-halophytes is genetically controlled with poor dependency on the condition of their rhizospheres (Albert, 1982;Breckle, 1986;Krüger and Peinemann, 1996;Matinzadeh et al, 2013).…”

“…Halophytes show different tolerance mechanisms and regulatory pathways and they can be classified into different functional groups accordingly (Milić et al, 2013;Mori et al, 2010).…”

“…Some of these species not only tolerate high levels of salinity, but display optimal growth under saline conditions (Barakat et al, 2014). This family includes both salt accumulator and salt secretor species (Matinzadeh et al, 2013;Milić et al, 2013;White et al, 2017).…”

“…Eu-halophytes also include some succulent plants, which accumulate high Na and Cl in their photosynthetic tissues by the absorption of extra water in their vacuoles. This reduces the toxicity of salt either in their leaves, assimilating stems, or both (Breckle, 1986;Milić et al, 2013;Mori et al, 2010;Naz et al, 2013;Zedler et al, 2003). Some plants may have combined strategies, for example some leaf-succulent eu-halophytes have salt trichomes in the early stages of their life cycle (Akhani et al, 2005).…”
