摘要

In this study, the Extended UNIQUAC thermodynamic model for electrolyte solutions was used to calculate the solubility of carbon dioxide in potassium carbonate aqueous solution. Available experimental data were used for determining the model parameters at temperatures of 313.15 K to 393.15 K, different equilibrium pressures (up to 1.2 MPa) and different solution concentrations of 15, 20 and 30 wt%. The value of the unknown parameters of the Extended UNIQUAC model, including the volume parameters, the surface parameters and the interaction energy parameters were optimized by nonlinear optimization method using experimental data available for ternary CO2–K2CO3–H2O system. The fugacity coefficient in the vapor phase was obtained using Soave–Redlich–Kwong equation of state (SRK-EOS). The results of this study show that the Extended UNIQUAC is a consistent thermodynamic model for representing vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) of the CO2–K2CO3–H2O system and the average absolute relative deviation (AARD) between the experimental and the predicted data was 3.81%.
