This paper presents a method that combines activity coefficient models with Hand’s equation for tie lines. The proposed method calculates solute distribution in liquid-liquid ternary systems. The combination improves the calculated solute distributions using activity coefficient models while Hand´s equation gives a good correlation of the experimental tie lines. The method could be used to extrapolate experimental information. tie lines. The proposed method calculates solute distribution in liquid-liquid ternary systems.
