“…All experimental solubility data reported in the literature showed that solubility of lighter hydrocarbons (ethane and propane) is higher in aqueous MDEA than in aqueous DEA solutions . Moreover, the observation is consistent with the ranking of alkanolamine solvating power for hydrocarbons reported in previous studies. ,, …”

“…Hence, most of the available literature data are related to the solubility of lighter hydrocarbons and their associated parametric studies. 3,4 However, in the petroleum processing industries, the solubility data for heavy liquid hydrocarbons is highly essential to understand amine foaming. 1,3 Two alkanolamines, namely, diethanolamine (DEA) and methyldiethanolamine (MDEA), have received much attention as potential solvents due to their low corrosiveness and relatively low heat of absorption.…”

This study presents liquid–liquid equilibrium solubility data of the mutual solubility of cyclohexane and water in aqueous solutions of diethanolamine (DEA). Measurements were taken using a series of jacketed cells connected to a thermostat to maintain the desired solubility temperature. Different concentrations of DEA (15, 25, 35, 45, and 50 wt %) were prepared and mixed with cyclohexane in the measuring cells at temperatures ranging from 298 to 318 K and atmospheric pressure. Once thermodynamic equilibrium had reached, samples from the aqueous phase were analyzed for cyclohexane content using a gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer, while samples from the hydrocarbon-rich phase were analyzed using a water content apparatus. Results showed that the solubility of cyclohexane increased with an increase in DEA concentration and varied directly with the temperature. Similarly, the solubility of water in the organic phase exhibited an increasing trend with an increase in temperature and concentration of DEA. The alkanolamine concentration effect was modeled using an activity coefficient model that was successfully used to estimate the activity coefficient of cyclohexane in the aqueous DEA phase from the measured solubility data.

Measurements of the solubility of propylene in aqueous alkanolamine solutions have been made over a range of temperatures from 8 to 100 • C. Concentration of the amines ranged from 0.7 to16.5 mol/l. In all cases, the pressure was high enough to ensure that two phases were present. The amine solutions included monoethanolamine (MEA), diethanolamine (DEA), di-isopropanolamine (DIPA), methyldiethanolamine (MDEA), and Diglycolamine ® (DGA ® ). The data have been correlated by a modified Setchenow equation.
