Production of C{sub 1} to C{sub 6} alcohols from syngas is one of the most promising developments in C{sub 1} chemistry. The reaction mechanism, which obeys a Schultz--Flory polymerization law, leads to simultaneous production of alcohols and hydrocarbons. The rate of heavier alcohols and hydrocarbons decreases with their increasing carbon number. A water-gas shift reaction occurs as a side reaction. Therefore, it is necessary to know the vapor-liquid equilibria of the H{sub 2}, CO, CO{sub 2}, CH{sub 4}, C{sub 2}H{sub 6}, C{sub 3}H{sub 8}, H{sub 2}O, CH{sub 3}OH, C{sub 2}H{sub 5}OH, and {ital n}-C{sub 3}H{sub 7}OH system for separation process design. In a previous publication, the authors reported vapor-liquid equilibrium data on CO{sub 2}-alcohols, CH{sub 4}-alcohols, and C{sub 2}H{sub 6}-alcohols. In this work the authors report isothermal high-pressure vapor-liquid equilibrium data for the H{sub 2}, CO, CO{sub 2}, CH{sub 4}, C{sub 2}H{sub 6}, C{sub 3}H{sub 8}, H{sub 2}O, CH{sub 3}OH, C{sub 2}H{sub 5}OH, and {ital n}-C{sub 3}H{sub 7}OH system in the 313--333 K temperature range.
