Industrial processes such as petroleum refining, coal conversion, enhanced oil recovery, and supercritical separation have created great demand for phase equilibrium data for asymmetric mixtures. The solubilities of carbon monoxide in decane, eicosane, octacosane, and hexatriacontane were measured using a static equilibrium cell over the temperature range from 310.9 to 423.2 K and pressures to 10.2 MPa. The uncertainty in these new solubility measurements is estimated to be less than 0.001 in mole fraction. The data were analyzed using the Soave-Redlich-Kwong (SRK) and Peng-Robinson (PR) equations of state. In general, two binary interaction parameters per isotherm are needed to described the data adequately.
