A note on the determination of vapour-liquid equilibrium for multi-component systems

Abstract

The use of a gas chromatograph connected to a data-logging system is described for analysing samples taken in the determination of ternary vapour-liquid equilibria.

Data are produced in a form that is ready for processing by digital computer, and therefore their accuracy may be determined within a short time of sampling. There is a distinct improvement in the accuracy of the method over more traditional methods for ternary system analysis.
