“…The former are typically based on extensions of the Debye-Hückel equation, the local composition concept, or statistical thermodynamics. As some examples of first group of models should be mentioned the Pitzer model (Pitzer & Mayorga, 1973) and its modifications -Pitzer-Simonson (Pitzer & Simonson, 1986) and Pitzer-Simonson-Clegg (Clegg & Pitzer, 1992); eNRTL (Chen et al, 1982;Mock et al, 1986) and its variants developed by scientists at Delft University of Technology (van Bochove et al, 2000) or Wu with co-workers (Wu et al, 1996) and Chen et al (Chen et al, 2001;Chen & Song, 2004); eUNIQUAC (Sander et al, 1986;Macedo et al, 1990;Kikic et al 1991;Achard et al , 1994). The alternative chemically based models assume that ions undergo solvation reactions.…”
