摘要

Liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) data were measured for the ternary system of water + resorcinol + mesityl oxide under atmospheric pressure at temperatures of (298.2, 323.2, 333.2, 343.2 and 353.2) K. The reliability of the experimental data was verified by the Hand and Bachman equations. The distribution coefficient and selectivity were calculated from the experimental LLE data, which showed high efficiency of mesityl oxide extracting resorcinol from the aqueous solution. The NRTL and UNIQUAC models were employed to fit the measured experimental LLE data and yield corresponding binary interaction parameters.
