This book provides an overview of fluid phase equilibria, a fundamental topic in understanding fluid mixtures, with special emphasis on predictive procedures. Historically, this problem has had practical relevance due to the emergence of synthetic fuels, use of new feedstocks, and the need to improve productivity using existing fluid technology. The author reviews the state-of-the-art of phase equilibria of nonelectrolyte systems, including the extended corresponding states method applied to nitrogen/methane systems, as well as alternative approaches based on the work of Griffith and Wheeler for predicting the vapor-liquid equilibrium of mixtures near the critical locus. The book further explores the calculation of critical lines and implications of such calculations to vapor-liquid equilibrium in general. The author concludes that despite the complexity of fluid phase equilibria and its impact on chemical processes, breakthroughs in theoretical models and improvements to experimental techniques have led to promising predictive procedures. Understanding fluid phase equilibria is essential for process optimization, design, troubleshooting, and research in chemical engineering, and this book contributes to the advancement of this field by presenting a comprehensive overview of predictive techniques.
