Abstract
Single- or multi-component supercritical fluids, which exhibit excellent solubility
in polymers, are used as solvents in polymer-based industries. Because their properties
change easily with volume, temperature, and pressure, the use of single- or multi-component
supercritical fluids in industrial applications requires the supercritical fluid apparatus
to be designed according to the required volume, temperature, and pressure. Supercritical
fluid apparatus design and optimization can benefit greatly from the analysis and understanding
of the thermodynamic behavior of single- or multi-component fluids. Therefore,
this study investigated the correlation between the composition ratio of a dichloromethane/
carbon dioxide mixture and pressure at 200 oC using ideal gas, van der Waals, Redlich-
Kwong, Soave-Redlich-Kwong, and Peng-Robinson equations of state. The critical temperature
according to the compositional change of the dichloromethane/carbon dioxide mixture
was predicted by the basic mixing rule. This analysis of the thermodynamic behavior
of the dichloromethane/carbon dioxide mixture can be used for optimizing supercritical
fluid apparatuses.
