Distillation has been used as an effective method of separation in the chemical processing industry, and vapor liquid equilibrium (VLE) data are essential for development, design, and simulation of separation sequences of mixtures. Therefore, the purpose of the study of the thermodynamic equilibrium in the current mixture is the attractive possibility of the application of chlorobenzene as the solvent in the acetone + methanol extractive rectification, using a reverse volatility separation process. This paper reports vapor-liquid equilibrium results from the acetone + methanol + chlorobenzene mixture at a constant pressure of 101.325 kPa. The equilibrium data have been compared with those predicted by ASOG, UNIFAC, UNIFAC-Dortmund, UNIFAC-Lyngby group contributed methods, with lower standard deviations of the vapor molar fraction and temperature being calculated by the latter.
