Abstract

Ethanol was widely used as gasoline additive because it can improve the combustion performance. In the other hand, the addition of ethanol in gasoline could increase the Reid Vapor Pressure (RVP). High value of RVP could lead to high emission evaporation. The objective of this study were to obtain experimental vapor liquid equilibria (VLE) data of gasoline and ethanol system using modified ebulliometer. The types of Gasoline used in this study are Petrosol CA, Petrosol CB and Petrosol CC. The addition of ethanol in Petrosol CA, Petrosol CB and Petrosol CC increased vapor pressure of the gasoline mixture up to 18.6 kPa, 12.9 kPa, and 8.2 kPa, respectively. The VLE data was then correlated with NRTL equation as temperature function. The best correlation result was obtained by modified NRTL activity coefficient with average absolute deviation (AAD) for ethanol (1)-Petrosol CA (2), ethanol (1)-Petrosol CB (2), and ethanol (1)-Petrosol CC (2), are 3.7 %, 3.7 % and 1.7 %.
