In this work, liquid-liquid equilibrium data were measured for three quinary mixtures (nonane + undecane + benzene + toluene + sulfolane), (nonane + undecane + benzene + m-xylene + sulfolane) and (nonane + undecane + toluene + m-xylene + sulfolane) at 298.15 and 313.15 K and ambient pressure. The experimental LLE data were determined by using a jacketed glass cell with temperature controlled. The quantitative analysis was performed by using a Varian gas chromatograph equipped with a flame ionization detector and a SPB (TM)-1 column. The experimental quinary liquid-liquid equilibrium data have been satisfactorily correlated by using NRTL and UNIFAC-LLE models. The calculated values based on the NRTL model were found to be in a better agreement with the experiment than those based on the UNIFAC-LLE model. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
