This paper reports the results of a new experimental study of liquid–liquid equilibria for the mixtures methyl
acetate + methanol + hexane or heptane at atmospheric pressure and at (268.15, 278.15, 288.15, and 298.15)K. The equilibrium compositions were measured by gas chromatography from samples split isothermally into a glass-stirred device, and phase diagrams are reported at each temperature. The experimentally determined liquid-liquid equilibria were satisfactorily correlated by the NRTL and UNIQUAC equations.
A comparative analysis was performed by application of UNIFAC group contribution method and its modifications to predict experimental liquid–liquid equilibria (LLE) behavior of these ternary mixtures. A poor prediction was observed from these contribution methods.
