N2 - Liquid-liquid equilibrium data for seven binary glycol-hydrocarbon systems have been measured in the temperature range 32 degreesC to 80 degreesC and at the pressure 1 bar. The measured systems are monoethylene glycol (MEG) + heptane, methyleyclohexane (MCH) + hexane, propylene glycol (PG) + heptane, diethylene glycol (DEG) + heptane, triethylene glycol (TEG) + heptane, and tetraethylene glycol (TETRA) + heptane. The data obtained were correlated with the NRTL model and two different versions of the UNIQUAC equation. The NRTL model and one of the UNIQUAC equations (UQ 4) have a linear temperature-dependent interaction parameter term, while the other UNIQUAC equation (UQ 2) has an interaction parameter that is independent of the temperature. There was a fairly good agreement between the experimental data and the models with an average deviation in the composition for both phases of 3% for both NRTL and UQ 4 and 15% for UQ 2. These results indicate the necessity of using the linearly dependent interaction parameters.
