A simplified method for calculating saturated liquid densities
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2004 , Article)
A simplification for the Nasrifar–Moshfeghian (NM) liquid density correlation has been developed. A replacement for the Mathias and Copeman temperature-dependent term with the original Soave–Redlich–Kwong equation of state ...
A systematic visual approach to molecular design via property clusters and group contribution methods
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2008 , Article)
In this work, a new simple yet effective, systematic method to synthesize and design molecules is presented. Visualization of the problem is achieved by employing an annex to the recently developed property clustering ...
Review on the Use of Ionic Liquids (ILs) as Alternative Fluids for CO2 Capture and Natural Gas Sweetening
