Morton, Secretary James A. Baker, III, Under Secretary Dr. Betsy Ancker-Johnson. Assistant Secretary for Science and Technology NATIONAL BUREAU OF STANDARDS, Ernest Ambler, Acting Director Foreword The thermophysical properties of ethylene and proplylene are of considerable interest because of the widespread use of these compounds as starting materials in chemical syntheses. The Office of Standard Reference Data of the National Bureau of Standards, with support from a number of industrial firms, has undertaken a program to establish definitive values for the equation of state and thermodynamic properties of ethylene. As one of inputs to this program, the book, "Thermodynamic and Transport Properties of Ethylene and Propylene," has been translated from the Russian. This translation is being made available to interested parties by issuing it as an NBS Internal Report. For further information on the ethylene program, please contact: Dr. H. J.

V. Pavlovich. The use of ethylene and propylene in the organic synthesis industry and the high rates of expansion of the capacities of planned mass production gas fractionation plants for ethylene and propylene production stimulated a need for the development of detailed tables of the thermodynamic and trans- port properties of these compounds, essential for technological calculations in the planning of equipment and apparatus. Previously published manuals contained thermodynamical ly contradictory data on the various properties of ethylene and propylene for a narrow range of temperatures and pressures, and often in a form unsuitable for use in engineering practice. An attempt is made in this work to systematize existing experimental data on the thermodynamic and transport properties of ethylene and propylene and to create thermodynamical ly concordant tables of these properties in the temperature and pressure ranges that are of interest in technological applications. The solution of this problem required the organization of additional experimental and theoretical investigations of the properties of ethylene and propylene, which were carried out by the authors in the problems laboratory of engineering thermophysics of the Kiev Technological Institute of Light Industry from 1963-1968. The properties measured included the density of the liquid phase, density of the vapor and of the liquid on the saturation line, isobaric heat capacity of the liquid, velocity of sound in gaseous ethylene and propylene, viscosity and thermal conductivity of ethylene and propylene, and thermal equations of state of gaseous ethylene and propylene were derived on the basis of more reliable data on compressibility. -1- Part One of the book contains a review and analysis of existing data on thermodynamic and transport properties of ethylene and propylene, as well as the results of investigations performed by the authors; the method of processing data on the various properties and the method by which the tables were compiled^ are described in detail. Part Two contains tables of the thermophysical properties of ethylene and propylene. The tables of the thermodynamic properties contain: properties on the liquid-vapor equilibrium line in the temperature range from 160°K to the critical point; specific volume, enthalpy, entropy

  • 7 Apr 2021 Thermodynamic Response Functions . L03–1 Review Of
    7 apr 2021 thermodynamic response functions . L03{1 Review of Thermodynamics. 3: Second-Order Quantities and Relationships Maxwell Relations • Idea: Each thermodynamic potential gives rise to several identities among its second derivatives, known as Maxwell relations, which express the integrability of the fundamental identity of thermodynamics for that potential, or equivalently the fact that the potential really is a thermodynamical state function. • Example: From the fundamental identity of thermodynamics written in terms of the Helmholtz free energy, dF = −S dT − p dV + :::, the fact that dF really is the differential of a state function implies that @ @F @ @F @S @p = ; or = : @V @T @T @V @V T;N @T V;N • Other Maxwell relations: From the same identity, if F = F (T; V; N) we get two more relations. Other potentials and/or pairs of variables can be used to obtain additional relations. For example, from the Gibbs free energy and the identity dG = −S dT + V dp + µ dN, we get three relations, including @ @G @ @G @S @V = ; or = − : @p @T @T @p @p T;N @T p;N • Applications: Some measurable quantities, response functions such as heat capacities and compressibilities, are second-order thermodynamical quantities (i.e., their definitions contain derivatives up to second order of thermodynamic potentials), and the Maxwell relations provide useful equations among them. Heat Capacities • Definitions: A heat capacity is a response function expressing how much a system's temperature changes when heat is transferred to it, or equivalently how much δQ is needed to obtain a given dT . The general definition is C = δQ=dT , where for any reversible transformation δQ = T dS, but the value of this quantity depends on the details of the transformation.

  • Toxicological Profile for Ethylbenzene
    ETHYLBENZENE 151 5. PRODUCTION, IMPORT/EXPORT, USE, AND DISPOSAL 5.1 PRODUCTION Ethylbenzene is primarily produced by the alkylation of benzene with ethylene in liquid-phase slurry reactors promoted with aluminum chloride catalysts or by vapor-phase reaction of benzene with dilute ethylene-containing feedstock with a boron trifluoride catalyst supported on alumina (Cannella 2007; Clayton and Clayton 1981; HSDB 2009; Welch et al. 2005; Ransley 1984). Newer versions of the method employ synthetic zeolites in fixed-bed reactors as catalysts for alkylation in the liquid phase or narrow pore synthetic zeolites in fixed-bed reactors in the vapor phase (Welch et al. 2005). Other methods of manufacturing ethylbenzene include preparation from acetophenone, dehydrogenation of naphthenes, catalytic cyclization and aromatization, separation from mixed xylenes via fractionation, reaction of ethylmagnesium bromide and chlorobenzene, extraction from coal oil, and recovery from benzene-toluene-xylene (BTX) processing(Clayton and Clayton 1981; HSDB 2009; Ransley 1984; Welch et al. 2005). Commercial grades of ethylbenzene may contain small amounts of m-xylene, p-xylene, cumene, and toluene (HSDB 2009). Ethylbenzene is traditionally ranked as one of the top 50 chemicals produced in the United States. Table 5-1 shows the historical production volumes of ethylbenzene from 1983 to 2005 (C&EN 1994a, 1994b, 1995, 2006; Kirschner 1995). Table 5-2 lists the facilities in each state that manufacture or process ethylbenzene, the intended use, and the range of maximum amounts of ethylbenzene that are stored on site. There are currently 3,755 facilities that produce, process, or use ethylbenzene in the United States. The data listed in Table 5-2 are derived from the Toxics Release Inventory (TRI06 2008).

  • ETHYLENE from METHANE (January 1994)
    Abstract Process Economics Program Report No. 208 ETHYLENE FROM METHANE (January 1994) This report evaluates two routes for the production of ethylene from methane: the direct synthesis based on the oxidative coupling of methane, and the less direct chemistry of converting methanol (which is derived from methane via synthesis gas) in the presence of an aluminophosphate molecular sieve catalyst. Our evaluations indicate that at the present state of development, the economics of both routes are unattractive when compared with the steam pyrolysis of hydrocarbons. We analyze the results of our evaluations to define the technical targets that must be attained for success. We also present a comprehensive technical review that examines not only the two routes evaluated, but also some of the more promising alternative approaches, such as synthesis gas conversion via a modified Fischer-Tropsch process, ethanol synthesis by the homologation of methanol, and ethylene production via methyl chloride. This report will be of interest to petrochemical companies that produce or consume ethylene and to energy-based companies (or equivalent government organizations in various countries) that have access to or control large resources of methane-rich natural gas.

Freund Department of Chemical Physics, Fritz-Haber-Institut der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft, Faradayweg 4-6, Berlin 14195, Germany Received 20 December 2005; accepted 20 January 2006 Adsorption and co-adsorption of ethylene, acetylene and hydrogen on Pd-Ag particles, supported on thin alumina films, have been studied by temperature programmed desorption (TPD). The TPD results show that adding of Ag to Pd suppresses overall hydrogenation activity but increases selectivity towards ethylene, i.e. similar to that observed on real catalysts. The results are rationalized on the basis of a complex interplay between surface and subsurface hydrogen species available in the system, whereby the latter species are the most critical for total hydrogenation of acetylene to ethane. KEY WORDS: hydrogenation; bimetallic catalysts; acetylene; palladium; silver. The selective hydrogenation of acetylene is an alumina film both at low pressures (with TPD) and high industrially important catalytic process in the large-scale pressures (up to 1 bar, using gas chromatography [16– production of polyethylene, where a small quantity of 18].

  • South Pole-Aitken Basin
    Feasibility Assessment of All Science Concepts within South Pole-Aitken Basin INTRODUCTION While most of the NRC 2007 Science Concepts can be investigated across the Moon, this chapter will focus on specifically how they can be addressed in the South Pole-Aitken Basin (SPA). SPA is potentially the largest impact crater in the Solar System (Stuart-Alexander, 1978), and covers most of the central southern farside (see Fig. 8.1). SPA is both topographically and compositionally distinct from the rest of the Moon, as well as potentially being the oldest identifiable structure on the surface (e.g., Jolliff et al., 2003). Determining the age of SPA was explicitly cited by the National Research Council (2007) as their second priority out of 35 goals. A major finding of our study is that nearly all science goals can be addressed within SPA. As the lunar south pole has many engineering advantages over other locations (e.g., areas with enhanced illumination and little temperature variation, hydrogen deposits), it has been proposed as a site for a future human lunar outpost. If this were to be the case, SPA would be the closest major geologic feature, and thus the primary target for long-distance traverses from the outpost. Clark et al. (2008) described four long traverses from the center of SPA going to Olivine Hill (Pieters et al., 2001), Oppenheimer Basin, Mare Ingenii, and Schrödinger Basin, with a stop at the South Pole. This chapter will identify other potential sites for future exploration across SPA, highlighting sites with both great scientific potential and proximity to the lunar South Pole.

This program, developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), calculates the thermodynamic and transport properties of industrially important fluids and their mixtures. These properties can be displayed in Tables and Plots through the graphical user interface; they are also accessible through spreadsheets or user-written applications accessing the REFPROP dll. REFPROP is based on the most accurate pure fluid and mixture models currently available. It implements three models for the thermodynamic properties of pure fluids: equations of state explicit in Helmholtz energy, the modified Benedict-Webb-Rubin equation of state, and an extended corresponding states (ECS) model. Mixture calculations employ a model that applies mixing rules to the Helmholtz energy of the mixture components; it uses a departure function to account for the departure from ideal mixing. Viscosity and thermal conductivity are modeled with either fluid-specific correlations, an ECS method, or in some cases the friction theory method.

For thermodynamic performance to be optimized, particular attention must be paid to the fluid’s thermal pressure coefficients and thermodynamics properties. A new analytical expression based on the statistical mechanics is derived for thermal pressure coefficients of dense fluids using the intermolecular forces theory to be valid for liquid lithium as well. The results are used to predict the parameters of some binary mixtures at different compositions and temperatures metal-nonmetal lithium fluid which agreement with experimental data. In this paper, we have used newly presented parameters of analytical expressions based on the statistical mechanics and predicted the metal-nonmetal transition for liquid lithium. The repulsion term of the effective pair potential for lithium shows well depth at 1600 K, and the position of well depth maximum is in agreement with X-ray diffraction and small-angle X-ray scattering. 1.
