Abstract: The solubilities of pesticides (permethrin and dicofol) in CO2 were measured by a static-analytic method at pressures ranging from 10.0 MPa to 25.0 MPa andtemperatures of 293.2 K, 303.2 K, and 313.2 K. Due to the nonconventional shape of some solubility isotherms, solid-liquid transitions of pesticides under pressure of CO2 were determined using a modified capillary method. Sincethe solubilities depend on solvent density, the experimental binary solid-fluid equilibrium data were correlated as a function of solvent density by two different models.Keywords: chemical processing, high pressure technology, CO2, pesticides, phase equilibria, solubilityPublished in DKUM: 01.06.2012; Views: 2097; Downloads: 36 Link to full text
