The most common operation in the chemical industry is the separation of liquid mixtures through distillation. Efficient design of distillation equipment requires quantitative knowledge of vapor-liquid equilibria (VLE) in binary or multicomponent mixtures. Vapor-liquid equilibria were measured for binary systems of octane + decane, decane + dodecane, and octane + dodecane at 20.00 kPa using a recirculating still. The results are thermodynamically consistent according to the point-to-point consistency test, and deviation from ideal behavior is small for all systems.
