Henry's Law Constants and Micellar Partitioning of Volatile Organic
38 J. Chem. Eng. Data 2000, 45, 38-47 Henry’s Law Constants and Micellar Partitioning of Volatile Organic Compounds in Surfactant Solutions Leland M. Vane* and Eugene L. Giroux United States Environmental Protection Agency, National Risk Management Research Laboratory, 26 West Martin Luther King Drive, Cincinnati, Ohio 45268 Partitioning of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into surfactant micelles affects the apparent vapor- liquid equilibrium of VOCs in surfactant solutions. This partitioning will complicate removal of VOCs from surfactant solutions by standard separation processes. Headspace experiments were performed to quantify the effect of four anionic surfactants and one nonionic surfactant on the Henry’s law constants of 1,1,1-trichloroethane, trichloroethylene, toluene, and tetrachloroethylene at temperatures ranging from 30 to 60 °C. Although the Henry’s law constant increased markedly with temperature for all solutions, the amount of VOC in micelles relative to that in the extramicellar region was comparatively insensitive to temperature. The effect of adding sodium chloride and isopropyl alcohol as cosolutes also was evaluated. Significant partitioning of VOCs into micelles was observed, with the micellar partitioning coefficient (tendency to partition from water into micelle) increasing according to the following series: trichloroethane < trichloroethylene < toluene < tetrachloroethylene. The addition of surfactant was capable of reversing the normal sequence observed in Henry’s law constants for these four VOCs. Introduction have long taken advantage of the high Hc values for these compounds.

Experimental Determination of Henry's Law Constants of Difluoromethane
Atmos. Chem. Phys. Discuss., doi:10.5194/acp-2017-58, 2017 Manuscript under review for journal Atmos. Chem. Phys. Discussion started: 8 February 2017 c Author(s) 2017. CC-BY 3.0 License. Experimental determination of Henry’s law constants of difluoromethane (HFC-32) and the salting-out effects in aqueous salt solutions relevant to seawater Shuzo Kutsuna 5 National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), 16-1 Onogawa, Tsukuba, 305-8569, Japan Correspondence to: S. Kutsuna ([email protected]) S −1 Abstract. Gas-to-water equilibrium coefficients, Keq (in M atm ) of difluoromethane (CH2F2), a hydrofluorocarbon refrigerant (HFC-32), in aqueous salt solutions relevant to seawater were determined over a temperature (T) range from 276 to 313 K and a salinity (S) range up to 51 ‰ by means of an inert-gas stripping method. From the van’t Hoff equation, the S −1 10 Keq value in water, which corresponds to the Henry's law constant (KH), at 298 K was determined to be 0.064 M atm . The S S salinity dependence of Keq (the salting-out effect), ln(KH/Keq ), did not obey the Sechenov equation but was represented by 0.5 S S an equation involving S and S . Overall, the Keq (T) value was expressed by ln(Keq (T)) = −49.7122 + 77.7018×(100/T) + 19.1379×ln(T/100) + [−0.2261 + 0.5176×(T/100)] × S 0.5 + [0.0362 − 0.1046×(T/100)] × S. By using this equation in a lower tropospheric semi-hemisphere (30° S−90° S) of the Advanced Global Atmospheric Gases Experiment (AGAGE) 12-box 15 model, we estimated that 1 to 5 % of the atmospheric burden of CH2F2 resided in the ocean mixed layer and that this percentage was at least 5 % in the winter; dissolution of CH2F2 in the ocean may partially influence estimates of CH2F2 emissions from long-term observational data of atmospheric CH2F2 concentrations. -
Solvation Structure of Ions in Water
International Journal of Thermophysics, Vol. 28, No. 2, April 2007 (© 2007) DOI: 10.1007/s10765-007-0154-6 Solvation Structure of Ions in Water Raymond D. Mountain1 Molecular dynamics simulations of ions in water are reported for solutions of varying solute concentration at ambient conditions for six cations and four anions in 10 solutes. The solutes were selected to show trends in properties as the size and charge density of the ions change. The emphasis is on how the structure of water is modified by the presence of the ions and how many water molecules are present in the first solvation shell of the ions. KEY WORDS: anion; cation; molecular dynamics; potential functions; solva- tion; water. 1. INTRODUCTION The behavior of aqueous solutions of salts is a topic of continuing interest [1–3]. In this note we examine how the structure of water,as reflected in the oxy- gen–oxygen pair function, is modified as the concentration of ions increases. The method of generating the pair functions is molecular dynamics using the SPC/E model for water [4] and various models for ion–water interactions taken from the literature. The solutes are LiCl, NaCl, KCl, RbCl, NaF, CaCl2, CaSO4,Na2SO4, NaNO3, and guanidinium chloride (GdmCl) [C(NH2)3Cl]. This work is an extension of earlier work [5] to a larger set of ions. The water molecules and ions interact through site–site pair interac- tions consisting of Lennard–Jones potentials and Coulomb interactions so that the interaction between a pair of sites labeled i, j and separated by an interatomic distance r is 12 6 φij (r) = 4ij (σij /r) − (σij /r) + qiqj /r (1) where qi is the charge on site i. -

SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL TO THE PAPER “THE TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE DEPENDENCE OF NICKEL PARTITIONING BETWEEN OLIVINE AND SILICATE MELT” A. K. Matzen, M. B. Baker, J. R. Beckett, and E. M. Stolper. In this Supplement, we provide seven sections that expand and/or illustrate specific topics presented in the main text. The first section is a sample calculation using our preferred partitioning expression, equation (5), from the main text. Section 2 compares our fitted values of ∆ r HT ,P ∆ r ST ,P − ref ref and ref ref for equation (5) to those calculated using tabulated thermodynamic R R data. In Section 3, we present details of the mass-balance calculations used to evaluate the experiments from both this work and the literature, and in Section 4 we describe in detail the construction of the Filter-B dataset. Section 5 details the construction and fits of the regular solution partitioning models. Section 6 is a comparison of the results of this work and the Beattie-Jones family of models. Finally, Section 7 lists all of the references incorporated into our database on olivine-liquid Ni partitioning. 1.

The Cloud Point Composition and Flory-Huggins Interaction Parameters of Polyethylene Glycol and Sodium Lignin Sulfonate in Water - Ethanol Mixture
AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Luh, Song - Ping for the degree of Master of Science in Chemical Engineering presented on July 22, 1987 Title: The Cloud Point Composition and Flory - Huggins Interaction Parameters of Polyethylene Glycol and Sodium Lignin Sulfonate in Water - Ethanol Mixtures Redacted for Privacy Abstract Approved: Willi J. Frederick/Jr. In designing a solubility based separation process for solvent recovery of an organosolv pulping process, the phase behavior of polymeric lignin molecules in alcohol - water mixed solvent should be known. In this study, sodium lignin sulfonates (NaLS) samples were fractionated into three different molecular weight fractions using a partial dissolution method. The cloud point compositions of each of the three fractions were determined by a cloud point titration method. The experimental data were correlated using the three component Flory - Huggins equation of the Gibbs free energy change of mixing. The binary interaction parameter between water and that between ethanol and NaLSwere found to be a weak function of the NaLS volume fraction, while that between water and ethanol was strongly depend on the solvent composition.
