Abstract In this work, the vapor–liquid equilibria for the binary system carbon dioxide—1,3-butadiene was measured at three temperatures, 303, 313 and 333 K. The measurements were carried out analytically in a recirculation apparatus. The experimental data were correlated with a modified Peng–Robinson equation of state and the Predictive Soave–Redlich–Kwong model. At 311 K, a parallel was drawn with the binary systems of n-butane, isobutane, 1-butene and carbon dioxide by means of the distribution coefficients K Ž i .. q 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.

1. Introduction Carbon dioxide is not only a powerful solvent in connection with supercritical fluid extraction, but can also be combined to a variety of products at elevated pressures. In some cases, carbon dioxide is solvent and reactant at the same time. Such a solvent-free reaction is the synthesis of d-lactons from 1,3-butadiene and CO 2 w1–3x. To activate the CO 2 , organometallic catalysts have to be used. For the technical implementation of this reaction the phase equilibrium has to be known. Only binary systems with CO 2 containing other C4-hydrocarbons have been investigated so far by other authors. New data of the binary 1,3-butadiene–CO 2 system are presented in this paper within the temperature range from 303 to 333 K up to pressures of 8 MPa.

2. Experimental The measurement of the vapor–liquid equilibria was performed using an analytical method with a modified apparatus for the determination of partition coefficients in two-phase mixtures w4,5x. It consists of a high pressure view cell Ž 200 cm3 . which allows to recirculate and to sample both phases via six-way valves. To condense 1,3-butadiene Ž Merck, purity ) 99.5%. into the autoclave at room temperature, the gas cylinder was heated up to 458C and the connecting capillary was cooled below y108C. By opening the outlet valve, the cell was filled with liquid 1,3-butadiene usually to one half. When the experimental device was at the right temperature, carbon dioxide Ž Messer Griesheim, purity 4.8. was compressed by a pneumatic pump into the cell until the desired pressure was reached. Pressure was measured at room temperature with a pressure transducer WIKA Ž type 891.23.510. outside the autoclave. Although equilibrium was reached after a few minutes by recirculating the liquid phase ŽFig. 1., it turned out to be adequate to prepare the system at one day and start the measurement without recirculation on the next. At first, the gaseous phase was sampled via the outlet valve at least three times. The escaping gas replaced a 200 grl NaCl solution in a glass gas sampling tube. While sampling the gaseous phase, equilibrium was regarded to be unchanged since the pressure drop was nearly zero. Afterwards, the liquid phase was sampled via a six-way valve in the recirculation loop at least three times, too. Sampling the liquid phase, a pressure loss of less than 0.1 MPa was observed. The sample Ž100 ml. was expanded into an evacuated glass vessel. The composition was determined by a GC, type HP 5880A, with a poropack column Ž 2 m Poropak Q. and a molecular sieve Ž2 m 13 = Mesh 60–80. in a flow switching procedure using WLD and FID detectors. Temperature was kept constant at "0.1 K, the pressure transducer showed a deviation of

less than "0.08 MPa. The reproducibility in the measured molar fractions varied within an error of "0.03 ŽFig. 1. . By selecting GC for analysis of the composition, a loss in accuracy was taken into account to be sure that no chemical reaction of the non-stabilized 1,3-butadiene occurred during the measurements. In fact, no additional substances were found.

3. Calculations The experimental data were correlated by using a modified Peng–Robinson equation of state ŽPR-EOS. ŽEq. Ž 1.. w6,7x, describing the dependence of the pressure p on molar volume Vm and temperature T. ps

The parameter k i j reflects the mixing behavior in the i-rich phase, while k ji dominates the phase enriched by substance j. The covolume of the mixture is simply calculated from the arithmetic mean of the pure substance data of b ŽEq. Ž6... For the system of carbon dioxide and 1,3-butadiene, best correlation was achieved with values of k i j s 0.0577 and k ji s 0.0217. For comparison of the phase composition, predictive calculations were performed using the Predictive Soave–Redlich–Kwong model Ž PSRK. , combining the UNIFAC group contribution method with the Soave–Redlich–Kwong equation of state w10–12x. The binary critical lines also were calculated twice, using the PR-EOS and by the method of Heidemann and Khalil with numerical differentiation w13x.

4. Results and discussion Data were measured on three isotherms, 303, 313 and 333 K. The results are given in Table 1 and are displayed in Fig. 2. The mixture of carbon dioxide and 1,3-butadiene shows a continuous critical line connecting the critical points of pure carbon dioxide and butadiene and certainly is a type 2 phase diagram, according to the classification of van Konynenburg and Scott w14x. The corresponding liquid–liquid critical line which should exist at lower temperatures was not investigated in this study. Fig. 2 also shows data calculated from the modified PR and the PSRK equation of state. The calculated data are in adequate agreement with the experimental results, except for the critical region of the 333 K isotherm. The modified PR-EOS was introduced because of its ability to describe nearly ideal systems but also highly non-ideal systems like carbon dioxide–water w6x, which is very useful in the context with our further investigations. In the case studied here, it is also reasonable to use the PR-EOS in its original version to describe the nearly ideal system of carbon dioxide and 1,3-butadiene. This can be seen from Table 2, giving the corresponding values of k i j and k ji together with the average and maximum deviation in the resulting composition. A significant temperature dependence in the k-values could not be found within the experimental range. Also for n-butane, only slight changes in k ji are reported in literature within the temperature range studied here w15x. The binary critical line was calculated by the PR and PSRK equations. Significant deviations were only found in the maximum region of the curve, outside of the experimental range, where the PR-EOS leads to higher critical pressures. The approach of the lines towards the critical points of the

Possibly, this is caused by the better reproduction of the vapor pressure curves by the improved a i Ž T . term ŽEq. Ž7... An increase in molecular interaction between unlike molecules is reflected by comparing the binary systems of carbon dioxide with n-butane w16x, isobutane w17x, 1-butene w18x and 1,3-butadiene. In Fig. 3, at about 311 K the distribution coefficients K Ž i . of these four systems, plotted vs. pressure using logarithmic scales, are compared.

The carbon dioxide branch Ž K ŽCO 2 . ) 1., on the other hand, is influenced by the different forces between CO 2 molecules and the C 4 compounds. Because of the smaller distances between the molecules in the liquid phase, a stronger interaction between CO 2 and C 4 H n should decrease K ŽCO 2 .. In the case of CO 2 and C 4 H n , the dispersion forces sharply dominate the electrostatic and induction forces. Especially the contributions of the quadrupolemoment of carbon dioxide can be neglected w20x. The differences in the phase behavior of the various C4 compounds will be studied in more detail in further investigations and correlations.

5. Conclusion We have presented new experimental data for the system carbon dioxide-1,3-butadiene. The results were correlated with a modified Peng–Robinson equation of state as well as described by the Predictive Soave–Redlich–Kwong model. The calculation of intermolecular forces is to increase the understanding of phase equilibria. Since chemical reactions can be unconsidered, the accuracy of the measured data will be improved by gravimetrical determination of the composition. Later on phase equilibria of the other systems related to reactions with unsaturated hydrocarbons in compressed carbon dioxide will be determined. In the case of d-lactone synthesis, this includes the mixing behavior of the educts and products and solubilities of the organometallic catalyst.
