Solid-liquid equilibrium data of organic nonelectrolyte systems are becoming increasingly important in the petroleum industry, particularly in light of present rends toward heavier feedstocks and known carcinogenicity/mutagenicity of many of the larger polycyclic aromatic compounds. Experimental solubilities are reported for anthracene dissolved in binary 2-propanol + 3-methyl-1-butanol, 2-propanol + 2-methyl-1-propanol, 1-propanol + 2-methyl-1-propanol, 1-octanol + 2-methyl-1-propanol, 1-butanol + 3-methyl-1-butanol, 2-butanol + 3-methyl-1-butanol, 2-butanol + 2-methyl-1-propanol, 1-octanol + 3-methyl-1-butanol, and 2-methyl-1-propanol + 3-methyl-1-butanol solvent mixtures at 25 C. Results of these measurements are used to test two mathematical representations based upon the combined nearly ideal binary solvent (NIBS)/Redlich-Kister equation and modified Wilson model. For the systems studied, the combined NIBS/Redlich-Kister and modified Wilson equations were found to provide very reasonable mathematical representations, with most deviations between experimental and back-calculated values being on the order of {+-} 1.0% or less.
