trends in solvent impact on infinite dilution activity coefficients of solutes reviewed and visualized using an algorithm to support selection of solvents for greener fluid separations

The infinite dilution activity coefficient,γi∞, is a frequently used molecular descriptor to pre-select a solvent for various kinds of fluid separations. Unfortunately, information related to these coefficients is scattered through-out the open literature. Therefore, an open-source γi∞-database containing 77.173 γi∞ data points over the temperature interval 243 K < T < 555.6 K for 268 solutes and 692 solvents is provided in the electronic...
