Primary and secondary alcohols, obtained as a product of processing of plant raw materials, can be used as additives in fuel. Mixtures of n-alkanes, cyclic alkanes and aromatic hydrocarbons can act as a model for gasoline and diesel fuel. Therefore, it is necessary to study the characteristics of mixtures of alcohols with normal, cyclic and aromatic hydrocarbons. To simulate liquid-solid and liquid-vapor phase equilibria, a method is used to minimize excess Gibbs energy by the solvation parameter. The authors developed the PCEAS (Phase Charts Eutectic and Azeotropic Systems) software. The input data in the case of constant pressure are the temperature T 0 and the enthalpy of the phase change H 0 of the pure components. Prediction of the thermodynamic parameters of secondary alcohols is used to calculate the eutectic and azeotropic parameters of the secondary alcohol - n-alkane mixture: composition, temperature, melting enthalpy and evaporation. The model makes it possible to determine the average value of the association parameter in the liquid phase k . Experimental data for azeotropic mixtures made it possible to establish the association parameter in the vaporphase  of the systems under study. The results of calculations can be used to select the optimal composition and obtain the requiredcharacteristics of biofuel.

INTRODUCTION The study and promotion of new types of biofuels, which use renewable energy sources obtained during the processing of plant raw materials, will contribute to improving the environmental situation and make it possible to reduce the cost of fuel production. Primary and secondary alcohols can be used as additives in fuel, constituting up to 10% of gasoline and diesel fuel. The properties of these new types of biofuels vary compared to traditional fossil fuels. Mixtures of n-alkanes, cyclic alkanes and aromatic hydrocarbons can act as a model for gasoline and diesel fuel. Therefore, it is necessary to study the characteristics of mixtures of alcohols with normal, cyclic and aromatic hydrocarbons. In [1-6], 1-pentanol and 2-pentanol are considered as oxygen-containing additives to fuel due to such properties as high octane number and high heat of combustion. As the hydrocarbon, n-hexane, cyclohexane or toluene was chosen. In this paper we study the liquid-solid and liquid- vapor phase equilibrium in the secondary alcohol - n- alkane system at constant pressure. To simulate liquid- solid and liquid-vapor phase equilibria, a method is used to minimize excess Gibbs energy by the solvation parameter. Eutectic and azeotropic parameters are found in the secondary alcohol - n-alkane binary system: composition, temperature and enthalpy of the phase change, the association parameter in the liquid phase. To simulate the thermodynamic properties of solutions, it is necessary to calculate the activity coefficients of the mixture components in the liquid and vapor phases. The nonideality of the solution is largely due to the interaction of the molecules. The influence of the nonideality of the solution on the activity coefficients is taken into account by constructing the corresponding thermodynamic models. For alcohol- based polar systems, the following models are used: Van Laar equation, Wilson equation, NRTL, UNIQUAC equation, UNIFAC equation, etc. [7-10]. Most models are not predictive; they require information on the interaction of molecules in binary mixtures. MATERIALS AND METHODS The justification of the Gibbs free energy minimization method according to the solvation parameter is provided in [11]. The solvation parameter λ characterizes the ratio of the number of molecules A to Please cite this article in press as: Esina Z.N., Miroshnikov A.M., and Korchuganova M.R.

Based on this method, the PCEAS [12-14] model allowing to calculate activity coefficients and a liquid-solid and liquid-vapor equilibrium with a constant pressure or at a constant temperature, and also the parameters of eutectic and azeotropic points is proposed. The input data in the case of constant pressure are the temperature T 0 and the Here F(z1) = z1 F1(z1)+(1 - z1) F2(z1) - is a function that is chosen from the condition of thermodynamic consistency of the model by the method of Herington and Redlich-Kister [15]. According to this method, the areas limited by the curve lg γ1/γ2 and the axes of coordinates must be equal. The minimization of excess energy (2) according to the internal parameter λ provides the Bernoulli equation: enthalpy of the phase change i H 0 of the pure 2 components, i = 1, 2. The model makes it possible to determine the average value of the association parameter in the liquid phase k. In this paper, we present the results where dT / dz1 + f1(z1) T=f2(z1) T , (3) 0 / R - α z ), f (z ) = of the calculation of liquid-solid and liquid-vapor phase f1(z1) = α / (∆H1 1 2 1 diagrams in secondary alcohol - n-alkane systems and water-secondary alcohol using the PCEAS model. 0 = - (β + ln (1 - z1)/z1)/(∆H1 /R - α z1), 0 - ∆H 0 )/R, β = ∆H 0 /RT 0 - ∆H 0 /RT 0. PCEAS model refers to models of the equation of α = (∆H1 2 2 2 1 1 state, is predictive, because it is based only on data on the parameters of pure components and does not use The solution of the equation (3) is written as: 0 z + ∆H 0 (1 - z )]/[∆H 0 z /T 0 + information about the parameters of binary interactions. T(z1) = [∆H1 1 2 1 1 1 1 To construct a mathematical model of the liquid-solid and liquid-vapor phase equilibrium, the method of minimizing the excess free Gibbs energy GE according to the solvation parameter λ [11] is applied. The difference of the equations of state of the binary system for the real and ideal equilibrium phases can be presented in the form [15]: (- H E/RT 2) dT+(V E/RT) dP = Σ xi d ln γi , (1) where H E - enthalpy of mixing; V E - excess volume; P - solution pressure; γi - activity coefficient of the i-th component; xi - molar fraction of the i-th component. In the majority of real solutions, the interaction of components providing the formation of type AB molecular compounds emerges. The solvation parameter λ = λ1/λ2 characterizes the ratio of the number of molecules A to the number of molecules B in the compound. The average ratio of the number of molecules of components in solvates characterizes the stable 0 (1 - z )/T 0 - R (z ln z + (1 - z ) ln (1 - z ))], + ∆H2 1 2 1 1 1 1 where T(z1) is the solution phase change temperature. The molecules of the components A and B can also form the clusters consisting of molecules of the same type. We will characterize the relation of the number of molecules of the component A to the number of molecules of the component B aggregated into associates in the liquid phase using the association parameter k  k1 k2 . The coefficient k1 shows how many molecules of component A in the liquid phase were combined into a cluster of type AA, the coefficient k2 shows how many molecules of component B in the liquid phase were combined into a cluster of type BB. Similarly, for the association characteristic in the pair, the parameter   1  2 is introduced. To calculate the liquid-solid and liquid-vapor phase equilibria, the thermodynamic coordination of the activity coefficients in the liquid and vapor phases is of particular structure of the solution. If solvation of molecules of pure importance. The solvation parameter   1 2 , as well as components takes place, the effective molar mass of the the association parameters in the liquid phase k  k1 k2 , component in the solution can be calculated by the can be determined by checking the thermodynamic formula: Mi  i Mi , where Mi is the molar mass of the consistency of the activity coefficients of the components component before mixing. For the real systems in which the formation of the molecular compounds called solvates is possible it is necessary to make a transition to effective mole fractions in the equation (1). The effective mole fractions of the components of the binary mixture are calculated by the formulas: z1 = x1/(x1 + λ x2), z2 = x2 /(x1/ λ + x2) [14]. The partial activity coefficients at constant pressure can be represented as: by the method of Herington and Redlich-Kister [15]. If n eutectics or azeotropes with close phase change temperatures are formed, their parameters must be averaged. The statistical method for determining the average parameters was proposed by Gibbs in 1901. The average temperature, composition and enthalpy of the phase change are determined by the formula: 0 0 0 H j n  RTj H j n  RTj ln γi = ∆Hi (1 - Ti /T) / (RTi ) - ln zi + ln Fi(zi), 0 X   X j e j1 / e j 1 , where ∆Hi is the enthalpy of the phase transition of the T pure i-th component; Fi(zi) is an arbitrary function of the composition; 0 - phase change temperature of the pure i where X j is the solvation parameter, the association i-th component, i = 1, 2. For a small range of boiling points, the excess free Gibbs energy: coefficient, the eutectic temperature or the azeotrope ( Tj ), the mole fraction of the binary mixture component in the eutectic or azeotropic point ( xj ) and the enthalpy of the GE = z1 ∆H1 (T / T1 - 1) + z2 ∆H2 (T / T2 - 1) - phase change H , and n is the number of eutectics or 0 0 0 0 j - RT (z1 ln z1 + z2 ln z2) + F(z1). (2) azeotropes in the system. To calculate the average characteristics of a binary mixture, the initial value of the solution temperature in a temperature is determined in the range from T 0  T to T 0  T . In this range, possible eutectics or azeotropes eutectic or azeotrope T 0 is introduced, which is close to the with temperature Tj and the molar enthalpy of the phase experimental one, and the error T with which the change H j (j = 1, 2, ..., n) are determined in this system.

The results of the calculation given in the table are in agreement with the experimental data [16]. The minimum eutectic temperature (formation of the solid phase) of the mixtures of secondary alcohols and alkanes studied is -62.4оC (2-octanol - octane), which is below the cold filter plugging point for cold (-20оC) and arctic (-38оC) climate. Thus, there is no obstacle to the creation of fuel compositions in order to control the flammability of diesel fuels and other purposes.
