Experimental Determination and Correlation of Liquid–Liquid Equilibria Data for the Ternary Systems of Water + 1-Butanol + Solvents (Isophorone and Mesityl Oxide) at Different Temperatures

Liquid–liquid equilibria (LLE) data for {water + 1-butanol + isophorone} and {water + 1-butanol + mesityl oxide} ternary systems were investigated systematically at different temperatures under atmospheric pressure. The Othmer–Tobias and Bachman equations were applied to analyze the dependability of the experimental LLE data. Selectivities and distribution coefficients were used to evaluate the extractive efficiency of the extractants. The...
