Calculation of solubility of three anthraquinone dyes in supercritical carbon dioxide: equations of state and density functional theory approaches


Mahtab Nabavi, Mohammad Reza Bozorgmehr, Mahmood Ebrahimi
Abstract

Solubility of three Anthraquinone dyes in supercritical fluid has been calculated. For this purpose, the Peng- Robinson equations of state, the Modified Peng-Robinson equation of state by Gasem et al. and Dashtizadeh et al. equation of state have been applied. Error values of each equation of state in different conditions of temperature, mixing rule and estimating methods have been reported. The quantum mechanics density functional theory method along with 6-31G basis set was used and interaction energy between each of structures and supercritical carbon dioxide were calculated. Obtained interpretations from quantum calculations are consistent with the results from equations of state.

Entomology and Applied Science Letters is an international double-blind peer reviewed publication which publishes scientific research & review articles related to insects that contain information of interest to a wider audience, e.g. papers bearing on the theoretical, genetic, agricultural, medical and biodiversity issues. Emphasis is also placed on the selection of comprehensive, revisionary or integrated systematics studies of broader biological or zoogeographical relevance. In addition to full-length research articles and reviews, the journal publishes interpretive articles in a Forum section, Short Communications, and Letters to the Editor. The journal publishes reports on all phases of medical entomology and medical acarology, including the systematics and biology of insects, acarines, and other arthropods of public health and veterinary significance.

Announcement and Advertisement
Announcements regarding scientific activities such as conferences, symposium, are published for free. Advertisements can be either published or placed on website as banners.

Associations
Entomology and Applied Science Letters supports the submission of entomological papers that contain information of interest to a wider reader groups e. g. papers bearing on taxonomy, phylogeny, biodiversity, ecology, systematic, agriculture, morphology. The selection of comprehensive, revisionary or integrated systematics studies of broader biological or zoogeographical relevance is also important. Distinguished entomologists drawn from different parts of the world serve as honorary members of the Editorial Board. The journal encompasses all the varied aspects of entomological research.
