The solubility of hydrogen sulfide in 2 m(about 0.146 mass fraction) aqueous solutions of 1,4-diazacyclohexane (piperazine, PIPH2) was measured at low gas loadings (at stochiometric molar ratios of hydrogen sulfide to PIPH2between about 0.14 and 1.04) and low partial pressures of hydrogen sulfide (from about (1.3 to 98.7) kPa) at (313.5 and 392.2) K by headspace gas chromatography. The new experimental results are a supplement to previously published data in the high gas-loading region. The new experimental data are compared to prediction results from a thermodynamic model that was based only on gas solubility data in the high gas-loading area. That thermodynamic model for describing the vapor−liquid equilibrium uses Pitzer’s molality-based equation for the excess Gibbs energy of the aqueous solution. The average relative deviation between the new experimental results and the predictions for the partial pressure of hydrogen sulfide amounts to 10 %. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The solubility of carbon dioxide in aqueous mixtures of 2,2′-methyliminodiethanol (N-methyldiethanolamine, MDEA) and 1,4-diazacyclohexane (piperazine, PZ) was measured at low gas loadings (at stoichiometric molar ratios of carbon dioxide to (MDEA PZ) between about 0.02 and 0.83) and consequently low partial pressures of carbon dioxide (from about (0.1 to 150) kPa) at three temperatures (313 K, 353 K, and 393 K) by headspace gas chromatography. The molality of MDEA in the aqueous mixture was varied between (2 and 8) mol·(kg of water)−1and the molality of piperazine was varied between (1 and 4) mol·(kg of water)−1. The new experimental data supplement recently published high-pressure data for the same systems. Comparisons with prediction results from a formerly published thermodynamic model reveal that the set of model parameters from that previous publication should be revised. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

New experimental results are reported for the influence of two single salts (sodium chloride and sodium sulfate) on the solubility of ammonia in liquid mixtures of water and methanol at 353 and 393 K. The mole fractions of methanol in the (gas-free and salt-free) solvent mixture of water and methanol were about 0.25, 0.5, and 0.75 in the experiments with sodium chloride and about 0.05 and 0.25 in the experiments with sodium sulfate. The molality of the salt varied between about 0.25 and 2 (0.15 and 1) mol/kg of the solvent mixture in the systems with sodium chloride (sodium sulfate). The maximum molality of ammonia was about 6.7 mol/kg of (water + methanol) for both temperatures and for both salts. The maximum total pressure above the liquid solutions was about 0.3 MPa (1 MPa) in the system containing sodium chloride at 353 K (393 K) and about 0.2 MPa (0.7 MPa) in the system with sodium sulfate at 353 K (393 K). The experimental results are used to test a thermodynamic framework which allows the influence of both single strong electrolytes on the solubility of ammonia in liquid mixtures of water and methanol to be predicted. The prediction results are in good agreement with the new experimental data. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
