Foreword: A n international conference on the ‘Ther- modynamics of Aqueous Systems” sponsored by the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE), the National Science Foundation (NSF), and the National Bureau of Standards (NBS), was held in Warrenton, Virginia, on October 22-25,1979. The papers presented reflected a great deal of research on electrolyte solutions. However, it was apparent that there was no fundamental document to tie all of the different information together and so to form a framework for solving real problems.

Therefore, AIChE’s Design Institute for Physical Property Data (DIPPR) decided to publish this book to meet such a need. Through a cooperative effort by participating corporations, different correlations have been compiled and objectively compared to experimental data, in regions of industrial interest. Effective methods of finding and using data are also described. The Handbook incorporates and extends previous work in a well-organized, easy to understand format, with a focus on applications to serious industrial problems. It will become a cornerstone in the study of aqueous electrolyte thermodynamics.

Electrolyte mixtures come in various forms and add another dimension to the normal complexities of nonelectrolyte solutions: entirely new species can form in water, some of which are not obvious; components can precipitate; soluble components can affect the vapor pressure of the solution very significantly. In industrial applications, the solutions are often highly concentrated and encounter high pressures and temperatures. There- fore expertise in electrolyte systems has become increasingly critical in oil and gas exploration and production, as well as in the more traditional chemical industry opera- tions. A variety of correlations are available that can solve the problems that are encountered in industry, but which ones work best? This comprehensive handbook not only provides easy access to available data but also presents comparative studies of various correlations up to extreme conditions.

As the Chairman of the Technical Committee of AIChE’s Design Institute for Physical Property Data, I conceived this cooperative research project and chose as its leader, Dr.

Noel C. Scrivner of the E.I. duPont de Nemours Company, one of the leading practi- tioners of electrolyte thermodynamics. With his expertise and enthusiasm, Dr. Scrivner defined the work that needed to be accomplished, promoted the project until it was funded, and directed its completion. He was elected to head the steering committee of representatives from the supporting companies.

The initial work was carried out in 1981 by the Electrolyte Data Center of the National Bureau of Standards, under the direction of Dr. B.R. Staples. That work continued throughout the project, generating the bibliographies for electrolyte systems. One of these bibliographies, developed by R.N. Goldberg, is included in this volume.

A significant portion of the project funding came from the Office of Standard Refer- ence Data of the NBS (Dr. David R. Lide, Jr., Director). The NBS liaison to DIPPR was Dr.

Howard J. White, Jr. DIPPR provided additional funding along with administrative and technical assistance.

The task of creating the actual handbook was given to the late Dr. Joseph F. Zemaitis,

(13)

Jr., owner of Chem Solve, Inc. His intellectual contribution to this project will remain as his legacy. He wrote the first few chapters and carefully outlined the remainder of the book. His principal colleague in this work, Ms. Diane M. Clark, dedicated several years of creative effort to take the outline and complete the project. Another colleague of Or.

Zemaitis, Dr. Marshall Rafal, owner of OLI Systems, Inc., assumed the contractor’s responsibility for execution of the handbook and contributed some of the writing. Dr.

Scrivner gave technical direction and technical contributions to assure that the work would meet the standards set by the steering committee.

This book is dedicated to Dr. J.F.Zemaitis. Dr. David W.H. Roth, Jr., the administrative committee chairman of DIPPR, and I would like to express sincere appreciation to the other authors, the steering committee members, the corporate sponsors, and the National Bureau of Standards.

In the past several years, interest in electrolyte phase equilibria has grown significantly. This growth in interest can be attributed to a number of evolving application areas and factors among which are:

o Recognition of the necessity to reduce pollutant levels

process waste The removal of sulfur by formation of gypsum is an example water streams.

of such an application.

o Development of new flue gas scruhbing systems using regenerative processes.

Scrubbing of C1, from incinerator streams and SO2 from flue gases are specific application examples.

o Recent escalation of the prices of oil and gas leading to the study and development of synthetic fuel processes i n which ammonia. carbon dioxide, and hydrogen sulfide are produced as by-products which usually condense to form aqueous solutions. Sour water strippers and amine scrubbers are specific processes developed in this area.

Most of the application areas mentioned above concern the vapor-liquid phase equilibria of weak electrolytes. However, in the past several years, consider- able interest has also developed in the liquid-solid equilibria of both weak and strong electrolytes. Application areas and factors that have affected this growth in interest include:

o Hydrometallurgical processes. which involve the treating of a raw ore or concentrate with an aqueous solution of a chemical reagent.

o The need of corrosion engineers to predict the scale formation capabilities of various brines associated with oil production or geothermal energy production.

o The need of petroleum engineers to predict the freezing or crystallization point of clear brines containing sodium, calcium, and zinc chlorides and bromides to high concentrations.

o The need for waste water clean up customarily done by precipitation of heavy metals.

o Sea water desalination.

o Crystallization from solution in the manufacture of inorganic chemicals.

Specific processes which typify these application areas are:

o Several processes involving formation of Cr(OH)3. These processes include:

manufacture of chrome pigment

U s e of a simple solubility product (e.g. Lange's Handbook) for Cr(OH), is invalid since precipitation involves intermediate complexes which f a r m to a significant degree.

These are just

a

few of the application areas of electrolyte phase equilibria which have generated an interest in developing a better understanding of aqueous chemistry. In contrast to other systems, in particular hydrocarbon systems, design-oriented calculation methods are not generally available for electrolyte systems. In the undergraduate education of chemical engineers, little if any mention of electrolyte thermodynamics is made and most chemical engineering thermodynamic texts ignore the subject completely. If an engineer is exposed to electrolyte thermodynamics at all during undergraduate education, the subject is taught

on

a rudimentary level so that many misconceptions may arise. For example, in manufacturing chrome pigment, noted above, use of the solubility product in order to determine solubility leads to very large errors since the solubility product approach totally ignores formation of complexes and their attendant effect on system state. Ry contrast. for hydrocarbon systems, most engineers are presented with a basic groundwork that includes design-oriented guidelines for the calculation of vapor-liquid equilibria of simple a s well as complex mixtures of hydrocarbons. In addition, during the last decade, the education of a chemical engineer has usually included the introduction to various computer techniques and software packages for the calculation of phase equilibria of hydrocarbon systems. This has not been the case for electrolyte systems and even now it is generally not possible for the engineer to predict phase equilibria of aqueous systems using available design tools.

(30)

I. .Introduction

For

processes involving electrolytes, the techniques used in the past and even some still in use today at times rely heavily on correlations of limited data which a r e imbedded into design calculation methods oriented towards hydrocarbon systems. Worse yet, until recently, limited use of the limited data available has occasionally led to serious oversights. For example, in the C1, scrubbing system noted earlier, the basic data published in Perry's Chemical Engineers' Handbook which has been used for years is actually in error. Hampering the improvement of the design tools or calculative techniques have been several restrictions including :

o A lack of understanding of electrolyte thermodynamics and aqueous chemistry.

Without this understanding, the basic equations which describe such systems cannot be written.

o

The lack of a suitable thermodynamic framework for electrolytes over a wide range of concentrations and conditions.

o The lack of good data for simple mixtures of strong andlor weak electro- lytes with which to test or develop new frameworks.

o The diversity in data gathering because of the lack of a suitable thermody- namic framework. A s a result of different thermodynamic approaches, experimental measurements to develop fundamental parameters have often led to the results being specific to the system studied and not generally useful for applications where the species studied are present with other species.

Fortunately, in the last decade, because of the renewed interest in electrolyte thermodynamics for the reasons described earlier, a considerable amount of work in the field of electrolyte thermodynamics has been undertaken. Techniques for the calculation of the vapor-liquid equilibria of aqueous solutions of weak electrolytes are being published. New, improved thermodynamic frameworks for strong electrolyte systems are being developed on a systematic basis. With these developments. DIPPR established, in 1980, Research Project No. 811. The objective of this project i s to produce a "data book" containing recommended calculation procedures and serving as a source of thermodynamic data either through recommended tabulated values or through annotated bibliographies which point t o suitable sources.

In order to meet the objectives of this project, several phases were established.

The specific phases involved:

1) Definition of the project scope.

2) Gathering available data and literature references for the preparation of test data sets and data tables contained in the report.

3) Review of thermodynamics, techniques and recent developments in order to select those techniques to be evaluated in the final report.

4) Testing and comparison of the various techniques against selected test data sets.

5) Development of the handbook in order to present the results of the project in a useful and readable form.

This book is a result of DIPPR Research Project No. 811. In it, the reader and user will find a systematic presentation of electrolyte thermodynamics, from the basic definitions of equilibrium constants of ionic reactions. to the prediction of activity coefficients of various species in rnulticornponent aqueous solutions of strong andlor weak electrolytes and the resulting phase equilibria calculative techniques. For several systems, data are presented and calculative techniques are illustrated. The goal of this book is for the engineer, faced with the need for solving industrially important problems involving aqueous solutions of electrolytes, to be able to understand t h e possible alternatives available and apply them to the problem at hand, either with available data or through available data prediction and analysis techniques. Several examples

will

be used to illustrate the calculative techniques necessary for different types of problems. The examples chosen are of a size that can be solved with limited computer facilities. The techniques can be expanded for more complex problems.

In order to better understand the basis for the chapters which follow. let us consider the formulation of a predictive model for a particular aqueous based electrolyte system. The example chosen involves water-chlorine. The reactions to be considered are:

The problem is to predict the resulting phase distribution and phase compositions.

In order to calculate the equilibrium composition of a system consisting

of

one

or

more phases in equilibrium with an aqueous solution of electrolytes, a review of the basic thermodynamic functions and the conditions of equilibrium is impor- tant. This is particularly true inasmuch as the study of aqueous solutions requires consideration of chemical and/or ionic reactions in the aqueous phase as well as a thermodynamic framework which is, for the most part, quite different from those definitions associated with nonelectrolytes. Therefore, in this section we will review the definition of the basic thermodynamic functions. the partial molar quantities, chemical potentials, conditions of equilibrium, activities, activity coefficients, standard states, and composition scales encountered in describing aqueous solutions.

Basic Thermodynamic Functions

The thermodynamic properties of a system at equilibrium consists of two types of properties, intensive and extensive properties. The most common intensive properties encountered are the temperature, T. and pressure,

P,

which are independent of the size of a measurement sample and are constant throughout the system. In fact, our definition of true equilibrium, to be described later requires T and P to be uniform throughout the system and the constituent phases.

The most common extensive properties are volume, V and mass. As one would suspect, these extensive properties are proportional to the size of a measurement sample.

The thermodynamic properties most often encountered in describing phase equilibria of a system are functions of the state of the system. This is important since the calculation of these thermodynamic properties depends only on the existing state of the system and not the route by which this state has been reached. The following energy and energy related properties are extensive properties if they refer to the system as a whole:

The intrinsic energy E

The enthalpy H = E + P V

(39)

The entropy S

The Gibbs free energy

Basic Definitions and Concepts

The pure substances from which a solution can be made are called the components, or constituents of a solution. The extensive properties of a solution are deter- mined by the pressure, temperature, and the amount of each constituent. The intensive properties of a solution are determined by the pressure, temperature and the relative amounts of each constituent. or in other words b y the pressure, temperature and composition of the solution. For aqueous solutions. the most commonly used measurement of composition of the solution is the molality, m.

Molality is defined as the number of moles of a solute in one kilogram of the solvent, and for aqueous solutions the solvent is water. One of the advantages of using the molality scale for concentration is that it is independent of temperature

(40)

11. Thermodynamics of Solutions

and thus, the density of the solution does not need to be known in order to determine the composition on a mole basis as would be required with the unit of concentration, molarity. The molality of a solute i in water is given by 1000gi/(M go) or 1000

ni/go

where gi and go are the number

of

grams of solute and solvent,

M

is the solute mo!ecule weight and ni is the number of gm-moles of solute.

The thermodynamic analysis of solutions is facilitated by the introduction of quantities that measure how the extensive thermodynamic quantities

(V,

E,

HI)

G ,

...I

of the system depend on the state variab!es T , P, and ni. This leads to the definition of partial molar quantities where, i f , w e let Y be any extensive thermodynamic property, we can define the partial molar value of Y for the ith component as:

‘i = ( e ) T , P , n j + j (2.8)

where nj stands for all the mole quantities except ni. It is important to note that the partial molar

(or

partial mold, which has the same meaning) quantities pertain to the individual components of the system and are also properties of the system as a whole. Furthermore

Partial molar quantities are intensive properties of the solution since they depend only on the composition of the solution, not upon the total amount of each component. If w e add the several components simultaneously, keeping their ratios constant, the partial molal quantities remain the same. W e can thus integrate the above expression keeping “1, “2,

With aqueous solutions of electrolytes

w e

have two types of equilibrium to consider: phase equilibrium and chemical or ionic reaction equilibrium. Phase equilibrium of interest are primarily vapor-liquid and liquid-soEd

,

though vapor- liquid-solid is often of great importance as. for example, in carbonate systems.

The necessary condition of phase equilibrium is that the chemical potential of any species i

in

phase a is equal to the chemical potential of that same species i in phase b or

Visa = p i , b (2.18)

(42)

11. Thermodvnamics

of

Solutions

For chemical or ionic equilibria in a particular phase, the condition of equilibrium is of the same form as the chemical equation. Thus if the reaction at equilibrium is represented by

a A + h B = c c + d D (2.19a)

the condition of chemical equilibrium in a particular phase would be denoted by aPA + =

clJc

+

db

which can be represented in a generalized form as c v i Ui = 0

(2.19b)

(2.20) where v i is the stoichiometric coefficient of species i in the reaction of interest; it is positive if the species is a product and negative if a reactant.

The two conditions of equilibrium for phase and chemical equilibrium can be combined to represent the heterogeneous liquid-solid equilibrium of an aqueous solution of a salt B in equilibrium with the solid of salt B

P B , s = lJBB,aq

The chemical potential of the solid crystal salt B is in phase equilibrium with the dissolved salt B in the liquid or aqueous phase. In aqueous systems w e are primarily dealing with salts of strong electrolytes, which i n water dissociate completely to the constituent cations and anions of the salt. The chemical potential of the dissolved salt is then given by

pB.aq = 'c pc + va Fa

where vc and va represent t h e stoichiornetric number of cations and anions while p and pa are the chemical potential of the cation and anion respectively. Thus t h e condition of equilibrium for a strong electrolyte dissolved in water and in equilibrium with its crystalline phase becomes

P B , s = v c P c + v a pa

Activities, Activity Coefficients and Standard States

It is generally more convenient in aqueous solution thermodynamics to describe the chemical potential of a species i. in terms of its activity. ai. The basic relationship between activity and chemical potential was developed by G. N. Lewis who first established a relationship for the chemical potential for a pure ideal gas, and then generalized his results to all Systems to define the chemical potential of species i in terms of its activity ai as

pi(T) =v;(T)+ RT In (ai) (2.21)

17

(43)

AQUEOUS ELECTROLYTE THERMODYNAMICS

H e r e poi is a reference chemical potential or the standard chemical potential at an arbitrarily chosen standard state. The activity is a measure of the difference between the component's chemical potential at the state of

interest

and

at

its standard state. Thus as the chemical potential of component i approaches the chemical potential of component i at its arbitarily chosen standard state, the component's activity approaches unity.

For aqueous solutions in which the composition of the solution is expressed in terms of molality, the arbitrarily chosen standard state is the hypothetical ideal solution of unit molality at the system temperature and pressure. It is chosen so that a s the molality approaches zero. the ratio of ailmi tends to unity. This ratio ailmi is called the molal activity coefficient, yi.

and

Yi = ailmi Yi-1 as m i 4 0

p i =

u:

+ RT In

(vimi)

(2.22)

The standard state chosen must be such that these equations hold a t all pressures and temperatures. I n these equations there appears to be an inconsistency of units, since the activity coefficient, Y i , is dimensionless, whereas molality has the units moleslkilogram. To avoid this inconsistency the activity coefficient should be defined as

Yi = ainP/mi (2.23)

where mo is the unit molality. For convenience, particularly in writing expres- sions for equilibrium constants, the normal convention in aqueous chemistry is to omit the writing of m0 and use the form ai = Yimi with t h e understanding that the activity and the activity coefficient are dimensionless.

W e have defined the activity and activity coefficient of a species i. Unfortu- nately, in solutions of electrolytes we find that we cannot make a solution containing only cations or only anions and need to introduce a mean or average activity coefficient. For example, when one mole of NaCl is dissolved in a kilogram of water, w e have created a one mold solution of NaCl which fully dissociates

to

form one mole of sodium ions and one mole of chloride ions. The chemical potential of the dissolved sodium chloride is given by

pw = p; + RT In aw (2.29)

where the standard state is, by convention, pure water at the system temperature and pressure. Thus for the pure solvent, water, the activity aw = 1.

In real solutions, the activity of water is quite close to one as the dilution ratio of the dissolved salts increases. In order to accurately represent the activity of water for dilute solutions. several significant digits would be

This expression can be used in different ways. I n the treatment of experimental data one of the most common methods of determining activity coefficient data involves the measurement of the water vapor pressure of the aqueous solution a s a function of concentration through various experimental techniques. Through proper manipulation of this equation and the acceptance of a theory of ionic solution behavior. the above expression can be used to calculate the mean activity coeffi- cient from the experimentally determined osmotic coefficient. This expression is also useful for calculating the water activity a s a function of concentration if one has developed a model of the behavior of the activity coefficients with concentration and the parameters of the mean activity coefficient model have been experimentally determined.
