Isobaric vapour-liquid equilibrium for binary system of cyclohexanol + cyclohexylbenzene at (5, 10, 15, 20 and 25) kPa

The isobaric vapour–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for the binary system of cyclohexanol + cyclohexylbenzene were determined at (5, 10, 15, 20 and 25) kPa with a dynamic recirculating apparatus and the temperature ranged from 358.10 K to 456.43 K, and the thermodynamic consistency of the experimental data was checked by the Herington area method and Van Ness method. Afterwards, the experimental data was correlated with NRTL, Wilson and UNIQUAC model, and the corresponding interaction of thermodynamic models of the binary system parameters were obtained through the Aspen software. The results indicated that all three models represent the experimental values quite well, while the NRTL model provided a slightly better result than Wilson model and UNIQUAC model. The maximum root mean square deviation of the temperature and vapour phase mole fraction for the NRTL model was less than 0.4 K and 0.004, respectively.
