Abstract:
The effects of ionic liquids BMIMNO
3 on the vapor-liquid equilibria of formaldehyde-trioxane-water systems were studied. The results showed that adding BMIMNO
3 could effectively improve the vapor-liquid equilibrium of the system, and adding a certain amount of BMIMNO
3 could eliminate the azeotrope phenomenon. The non-random two-liquid (NRTL) model was used to fit the experimental data, and the average relative deviation of the trioxane-water-BMIMNO
3 ternary system was 1.32%, and the average relative deviation of the formaldehyde-water-BMIMNO
3 ternary system was 1.74%. The vapor-liquid equilibrium data of trioxane-formaldehyde-water-BMIMNO
3 were measured. The results showed that the addition of BMIMNO
3 could increase the molar concentration of trioxane in the vapor phase by 17.49%. The results are significance for increasing the concentration of trioxane in vapor phase.
