Abstract

Knowledge of the solubility limit of heavy hydrocarbons in liquid methane is of practical interest in the liquefaction of natural gas. Data for several binary systems were given in previous publications [1,2].The present work describes solubility measurements made for a common odorant used in natural gas. Data were obtained using a single-pass continuous-flow apparatus with the solvent gases at supercritical pressures. The solubility of solid tert-butyl mercaptan in liquid methane and a liquefied natural gas mixture was determined.
