Solubility of vitamin A in supercritical CO₂: experimental study and thermodynamic modeling.

ABSTRACT: One of the best methods of extracting Vitamin A, as a helper of the immune body system and vision, was measured in supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO₂); Mole fractions were gained at practical conditions in which the temperature was in the range of 303-323 K and the pressure range was 90-235 bar, respectively. Moreover, four Equation of States [Soave-Redlich-Kwong, Peng-Robinson, Stryjek-Vera and Dashtizadeh-Pazuki-Taghikhani-Ghotbi (DPTG)] were compared with the experimental data. Also, the mixing rules of Van der Waals (vdW1 and vdW2) selected to correlate the solubility data of vitamin A. The outcomes indicate that each of EOSs coupled with vdW2, as a method of estimating the physicochemical and critical properties, were correlated with the solubility data of vitamin A in SC-CO₂ with more accuracy, in comparison with vdW1. Among the cubic EOSs, the DPTG model with vdW2 generated the most suitable correlation with the percentage average absolute relative deviation (Average Absolute Relative Deviation%) of 6.

Prediction of Acid Red 138 solubility in supercritical CO2 with water co-solvent.

Project description:Acid Red 138, as a weak acid azo dye with a long alkyl chain, is widely used for protein fiber dyeing while it cannot dissolve in supercritical carbon dioxide. The objective of this study is to investigate the solubility of Acid Red 138 with water at the temperatures of 353.15, 363.15, 373.15, 393.15 and 413.15 K and over a pressure range of 20 to 26 MPa. The test results revealed that the phase equilibrium of water and Acid Red 138 was affected by the competition between pressure and density of supercritical carbon dioxide. Furthermore, the experimental solubilities were correlated by three types of density-based model. Good agreement with less than 3.36% of average absolute relative deviation between the calculated and the experimental data of water was achieved. In addition, the Chrastil model, Mendez-Santiago-Teja model and Sung-Shim model exhibited excellent correlation results for Acid Red 138 solubilities with the AARD values of 8.58%, 6.06% and 5.19%. Better understanding of the solubility behavior of Acid Red 138 in supercritical carbon dioxide displays potential for developing a microemulsion system for the eco-friendly dyeing of natural fibers.

Experimental study of the supercritical CO2 diffusion coefficient in porous media under reservoir conditions.

Project description:Reliable measurement of the CO2 diffusion coefficient in consolidated oil-saturated porous media is critical for the design and performance of CO2-enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects. A thorough experimental investigation of the supercritical CO2 diffusion in n-decane-saturated Berea cores with permeabilities of 50 and 100 mD was conducted in this study at elevated pressure (10-25 MPa) and temperature (333.15-373.15 K), which simulated actual reservoir conditions. The supercritical CO2 diffusion coefficients in the Berea cores were calculated by a model appropriate for diffusion in porous media based on Fick's Law. The results show that the supercritical CO2 diffusion coefficient increases as the pressure, temperature and permeability increase. The supercritical CO2 diffusion coefficient first increases slowly at 10 MPa and then grows significantly with increasing pressure. The impact of the pressure decreases at elevated temperature. The effect of permeability remains steady despite the temperature change during the experiments. The effect of gas state and porous media on the supercritical CO2 diffusion coefficient was further discussed by comparing the results of this study with previous study. Based on the experimental results, an empirical correlation for supercritical CO2 diffusion coefficient in n-decane-saturated porous media was developed. The experimental results contribute to the study of supercritical CO2 diffusion in compact porous media.

First-principles calculations, experimental study, and thermodynamic modeling of the Al-Co-Cr system.

Project description:The phase relations and thermodynamic properties of the condensed Al-Co-Cr ternary alloy system are investigated using first-principles calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) and phase-equilibria experiments that led to X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electron probe micro-analysis (EPMA) measurements. A thermodynamic description is developed by means of the calculations of phase diagrams (CALPHAD) method using experimental and computational data from the present work and the literature. Emphasis is placed on modeling the bcc-A2, B2, fcc-γ, and tetragonal-σ phases in the temperature range of 1173 to 1623 K. Liquid, bcc-A2 and fcc-γ phases are modeled using substitutional solution descriptions. First-principles special quasirandom structures (SQS) calculations predict a large bcc-A2 (disordered)/B2 (ordered) miscibility gap, in agreement with experiments. A partitioning model is then used for the A2/B2 phase to effectively describe the order-disorder transitions. The critically assessed thermodynamic description describes all phase equilibria data well. A2/B2 transitions are also shown to agree well with previous experimental findings.

Achieving solubility alteration with functionalized polydimethylsiloxane for improving the viscosity of supercritical CO2 fracturing fluids.

Project description:Supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) fracturing technology has the characteristics of a large amount of fixed CO2 and anhydrous fracturing. It has great application potential for developing unconventional oil and gas resources and mitigating the greenhouse effect. However, the low viscosity of SC-CO2 limits the development of this technology. In this work, HS series thickeners were prepared via a ring-opening polymerization and hydrosilylation reaction by a molecular simulation-aided design method. The simulation results of cohesive energy density, interaction energy, and radial distribution function are consistent with the visualization experimental results, which proves that HS (hyperbranched siloxane) series thickeners have excellent solubility in SC-CO2. HS-3 is the best thickener in the HS series. At 305.15 K and 10 MPa, 5 wt% HS-3 (60 s-1) increases the viscosity of SC-CO2 by 151 times, and the apparent viscosity is 3.024 mPa s. The apparent viscosity of SC-CO2 was positively correlated with the pressure and concentration but negatively correlated with the temperature and shear rate. The results indicate that it is feasible to introduce an aliphatic group and polysiloxane into a SC-CO2 thickener by hydrosilylation.

Sinking CO2 in Supercritical Reservoirs.

Project description:Geologic carbon storage is required for achieving negative CO2 emissions to deal with the climate crisis. The classical concept of CO2 storage consists in injecting CO2 in geological formations at depths greater than 800 m, where CO2 becomes a dense fluid, minimizing storage volume. Yet CO2 has a density lower than the resident brine and tends to float, challenging the widespread deployment of geologic carbon storage. Here, we propose for the first time to store CO2 in supercritical reservoirs to reduce the buoyancy-driven leakage risk. Supercritical reservoirs are found at drilling-reachable depth in volcanic areas, where high pressure (p > 21.8 MPa) and temperature (T > 374°C) imply CO2 is denser than water. We estimate that a CO2 storage capacity in the range of 50-500 Mt yr-1 could be achieved for every 100 injection wells. Carbon storage in supercritical reservoirs is an appealing alternative to the traditional approach.

Modeling the Solubility of Monoterpenoids with Hybrid and Predictive Thermodynamic Tools.

Project description:The Abraham and NRTL-SAC semipredictive models were employed to represent the solubility of (-)-borneol, (1R)-(+)-camphor, l-(-)-menthol, and thymol in water and organic solvents, using data measured in this work and collected from the literature. A reduced set of solubility data was used to estimate the model parameters of the solutes, and global average relative deviations (ARDs) of 27% for the Abraham model and 15% for the NRTL-SAC model were obtained. The predictive capability of these models was tested by estimating the solubilities in solvents not included in the correlation step. Global ARDs of 8% (Abraham model) and 14% (NRTL-SAC model) were obtained. Finally, the predictive COSMO-RS model was used to describe the solubility data in organic solvents, with ARD of 16%. These results show the overall better performance of NRTL-SAC in a hybrid correlation/prediction approach, while COSMO-RS can produce very satisfactory predictions even in the absence of any experimental data.

Thermodynamic Assessment of the Partitioning of Acetone between Supercritical CO2 and Polystyrene Using the Polar PC-SAFT Equation of State.

Project description:Supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) has gained considerable attention in the process industry due to its favorable economic, environmental, and technical characteristics. Polymer processing is one of the key industrial applications where scCO2 plays an important role. In order to be able to efficiently design the polymer processing equipment, understanding the phase behavior and partition of solutes between scCO2 and polymers is necessary. This paper investigates the partitioning of acetone - a conventional polar cosolvent - between scCO2 and polystyrene - a glassy polymer. We highlight the importance of taking into account the polar interactions between acetone molecules and their role in the polymer phase behavior. The system is modeled under a wide range of temperatures and pressures (278.15-518.2 K and 1.0-20.0 MPa) using the polar version of the perturbed chain statistical associating fluid theory (polar PC-SAFT) equation of state. The results show that at relatively low pressure, the system exhibits a vapor-liquid-liquid (VLL) three-phase region bounded by two two-phase regions (VL and LL). At high pressure, VLL and VL regions disappear and only the LL region remains. The temperature effect is more interesting, showing a transition of upper critical solution temperature behavior to lower critical solution temperature behavior at 10 MPa and 398.15 K. It is found that neglecting the polar term can lead to significant changes in the description of the polymeric-system phase behavior especially at lower temperatures. No such differences are observed at higher temperatures (above 500 K) where the effect of polar interaction is considerably weaker.

Modeling Binary and Multicomponent Systems Containing Supercritical CO2 with Polyethylene Glycols and Compounds Relevant to the Biodiesel Production.

Project description:The CPA equation of state is applied to model binary, ternary, and multicomponent mixtures that contain CO2 with polyethylene glycols or compounds relevant to biodiesel production, such as glycerol and various triglycerides. Effort has been made to evaluate the model performance on correlating both the liquid and the vapor phase compositions, which is a demanding task, revealing the model's and parameters' limitations, due to the rather low concentrations of heavy compounds in the vapor phase. Initially the model's binary parameters, which in all cases were temperature independent, were estimated using experimental data for binary systems. Those parameters were used to predict the phase behavior of supercritical CO2 containing ternary and multicomponent mixtures. Since no parameter was adjusted to ternary or multicomponent systems' data, the reported CPA results for such mixtures are considered as pure predictions. This is the final part of a series of studies [Tsivintzelis et al. Fluid Phase Equilibria 430 (2016) 75-92 and 504 (2020) 112337] that complete the parameterization of the CPA equation of state for systems relevant to the biodiesel production, which allows the application of the model to multicomponent mixtures of the relevant processes.

Pressure-driven supercritical CO2 transport through a silica nanochannel.

Project description:A thorough understanding of supercritical CO2 (scCO2) transport through nanochannels is of prime significance for the effective exploitation of shale resources and the mitigation of greenhouse gas emission. In this work, we employed the non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations method to investigate the pressure-driven scCO2 transport behavior through silica nanochannels with different external forces and pore sizes. The simulations reveal that the capability of scCO2 diffusion enhances both in the bulk region and the surface adsorbed layer with the increasing of pressure gradient or nanochannel size, in addition, the slip length increases nonlinearly with the external acceleration or nanochannel width increases and finally reaches a maximum value. The negative slippage occurs at lower pressure gradient or within the narrower nanochannel. Overall, it is the combined effect of strong adsorption, surface diffusion and slippage that causes the nonlinear relation between flow rate and pressure gradient or nanochannel size. The present work would provide theoretical guidance for the scCO2 enhanced shale oil/gas recovery, CO2 storage, and mass transport in nanoporous materials.
