Resumen

he success during the operation of natural gas processing plants depends on the correct estimation of thermodynamic properties of the system. This paper calculates the equilibrium curves of real and synthetic natural gas mixtures means of three Equations of State (EOS). These equilibrium curves were constructed and compared with experimental data found in the literature covered. The results showed that, above 4 MPa the Peng-Robinson equation presented a considerable deviation with respect to the experimental data, reaching an absolute error of 4.36%; therefore, the GERG2008 equation is recommended for systems that operate at high pressures when the components present in the mixture apply.Keywords:Gas Mixtures, Dew curves, Equations of State; Peng-Robinson, Soave-Redlich-Kwong, GERG2008.ResumenEl éxito durante la operación de plantas de tratamiento de gas natural depende de la correcta estimación de las propiedades termodinámicas del sistema.
