Solubility of 3-Aminobenzoic Acid in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Modified by Ethanol
The solubilities of 3-aminobenzoic acid with different concentrations of ethanol cosolvent in supercritical carbon dioxide were measured by using flow-type equipment at pressures from 10.0 MPa to 21.0 MPa and temperature 308 K to 328 K. The effects on solubility of 3-aminobenzoic acid in SCCO2 with ethanol mole concentration of 1.0 % were investigated at temperatures of 308 K, 318 K, and 328 K; then, the study was also carried out with ethanol mole concentrations of 2.0 % and 4.0 % at 318 K, respectively. The experimental results revealed that the equilibrium solubility of 3-aminobenzoic acid was effectively increased in the presence of ethanol. The measured solubility data were correlated using the modified Sovova model, the modified Chrastil model, and the modified MST model, and the best agreement was obtained applying the modified Sovova model.
