Abstract
In this work, we propose to correlate and predict the solubility in supercritical CO2 of disubstituted aromatic isomers of hydroxybenzoic acid and methylbenzoic acid with a new methodology based on the expanded liquid theory, in which the solid–fluid equilibrium is modeled using the local composition model of UNIQUAC in which the interaction parameters are related to the solvent reduced density with an empiric exponential form equations. The experimental solubility of hydroxybenzoic acid isomers, methylbenzoic acid isomers and mixed isomers (m-hydroxybenzoic acid+p-hydroxybenzoic acid) are used for evaluating the correlation and prediction capabilities of this new methodology. The results obtained using the proposed model show good agreement with the experimental data used.

(12) is used to calculate the residual part of the solid solute activity coefficient. Thermodynamic properties of the solid solute listed in Table 1 are used together with Eqs. (7), (8), and (12) to estimate the solubility y 2 using Eq. (6). The interaction parameters and are then regressed according to Eqs. (13a) and (13b) using the solver tool in Excel [10]. The best regression is based on minimizing the error between the regressed and experimental solubility data. The definition of the error is based on the work of Valderama et al. [11] and the objective function that minimizes the sum of average absolute relative deviation (AARD) is 2(exp) 2( ) 1 2(exp) 100

The AARD is listed for each isomer and for each temperature together with the adjustable parameters values and the overall absolute deviations. Results and Discussions Each isomer parameters are obtained by fitting its own and whole solubility data. The overall deviations values obtained are generally low and so indicate a good correlation capability of the model. From Table 3 and Figure 2 we can see clearly that for the hydroxybenzoic acid isomers, the greatest values of AARD are noted at high temperatures especially for T=373K. These can be probably attributed to the melting point depression occurring in some high-pressure-mixtures [19, 20]. Table 3. Regression Results for Hydroxybenzoic Acid Isomers.

- Under the influence of high-pressure carbon dioxide, organic solids may undergo melting point depression [21] which lead to the exhibition of fluid-liquid equilibria and so affect the measured solubility data. Lucien & Foster [15] have mentioned that with their experimental technique for measuring, in all of the systems investigated (pure and mixed) no melting point depression was observed. However, Krukonis & Kurnik [2] have reported measured solubilities of the hydroxybenzoic acid isomers at very high conditions (T=373K and P 207 bar) without indication to the melting point depression phenomenon.
