The locations of the tietriangle and biaodal curves ia the phase diagram depead oa the molecular stmctures of the amphiphile and oil, on the concentration of cosurfactant and/or electrolyte if either of these components is added, and on the temperature (and, especially for compressible oils such as propane or carbon dioxide, on the pressure (29,30)). Unfortunately for the laboratory worker, only by measuriag (or correcdy estimatiag) the compositions of T, Af, and B can one be certain whether a certain pair of Hquid layers are a microemulsion and conjugate aqueous phase, a microemulsion and oleic phase, or simply a pair of aqueous and oleic phases. 

The second processing step, in which benzoic acid is oxidized and hydrolyzed to phenol, is carried out in two reactors in series. In the first reactor, the benzoic acid is oxidized to phenyl benzoate in the presence of air and a catalyst mixture of copper and magnesium salts. The reactor is operated at 234°C and 147 kPa gauge (1.5 kg/cm g uge). The phenyl benzoate is then hydrolyzed with steam in the second reactor to yield phenol and carbon dioxide. This occurs at 200°C and atmospheric pressure. The overall yield of phenol from benzoic acid is around 88 mol %. Figure 2 shows a simplified diagram for the toluene—benzoic acid process. 

Phase Behavior. One of the pioneering works detailing the phase behavior of ternary systems of carbon dioxide was presented ia the early 1950s (12) and consists of a compendium of the solubiHties of over 260 compounds ia Hquid (21—26°C) carbon dioxide. This work contains 268 phase diagrams for ternary systems. Although the data reported are for Hquid CO2 at its vapor pressure, they yield a first approximation to solubiHties that may be encountered ia the supercritical region. Various additional sources of data are also available (1,4,7,13). 

Some values of physical properties of CO2 appear in Table 1. An excellent pressure—enthalpy diagram (a large Mohier diagram) over 260 to 773 K and 70—20,000 kPa (10—2,900 psi) is available (1). The thermodynamic properties of saturated carbon dioxide vapor and Hquid from 178 to the critical point,... 

Available data on the thermodynamic and transport properties of carbon dioxide have been reviewed and tables compiled giving specific volume, enthalpy, and entropy values for carbon dioxide at temperatures from 255 K to 1088 K and at pressures from atmospheric to 27,600 kPa (4,000 psia). Diagrams of compressibiHty factor, specific heat at constant pressure, specific heat at constant volume, specific heat ratio, velocity of sound in carbon dioxide, viscosity, and thermal conductivity have also been prepared (5). 

Diagrams of isobaric heat capacity (C and thermal conductivity for carbon dioxide covering pressures from 0 to 13,800 kPa (0—2,000 psi) and 311 to 1088 K have been prepared. Viscosities at pressures of 100—10,000 kPa (1—100 atm) and temperatures from 311 to 1088 K have been plotted (9). 

Figure 3 shows a simple schematic diagram of an oxygen-based process. Ethylene, oxygen, and the recycle gas stream are combined before entering the tubular reactors. The basic equipment for the reaction system is identical to that described for the air-based process, with one exception the purge reactor system is absent and a carbon dioxide removal unit is incorporated. The CO2 removal scheme illustrated is based on a patent by Shell Oil Co. (127), and minimises the loss of valuable ethylene in the process.

Raveau now calculated the values of p, v from van der Waals equation, plotted the logarithms, and compared the diagram with a similar one drawn from the experimental results. The results showed that the diagrams could not be made to fit in the ease of carbon-dioxide and acetylene, the divergencies being very marked near the critical point.

C04-0123. Carbon dioxide, which is used to carbonate beverages and as a coolant (dry ice), is produced from methane and water vapor CILi(g) +H2 0(g) C02(g) + H2(g) (unbalanced) The diagram shown below represents a small portion of a vessel that contains starting materials for this reaction. 

All phase diagrams share the ten common features listed above. However, the detailed appearance of a phase diagram is different for each substance, as determined by the strength of the intermolecular interactions for that substance. Figure 11-40 shows two examples, the phase diagrams for molecular nitrogen and for carbon dioxide. Both these substances are gases under normal conditions. Unlike H2 O, whose triple point lies close to 298 K,... 

N2 and CO2 have triple points that are well below room temperature. Although both are gases at room temperature and pressure, they behave differently when cooled at P = 1 atm. Molecular nitrogen liquefies at 77.4 K and then solidifies at 63.3 K, whereas carbon dioxide condenses directly to the solid phase at 195 K. This difference in behavior arises because the triple point of CO2, unlike the triple points of H2 O and N2, occurs at a pressure greater than one atmosphere. The phase diagram of CO2 shows that at a pressure of one atmosphere, there is no temperature at which the liquid phase is stable.

The phase diagrams in Figures 11-39 and 11-40 do not show critical points, because the critical points of water, carbon dioxide and nitrogen occur at higher pressures than those shown on these diagrams. The critical point of water is P = 218 atm, T = 647 K that of CO2 is P = 72.9, T — 304 K and that of N2 is P = 33.5 atm, P = 126 K.
