ABSTRACT
Water activities of the CsCl-MgCl2-H2O ternary system and its sub-binary systems at 323.15 K were elaborately measured by an isopiestic method. Moreover, the solubility of the CsCl-MgCl2-H2O system at 323.15 K was also measured by Flow-Cloud-Point method. A Pitzer model was selected to correlate the water activity and solubility data measured in this work. The binary parameters for the CsCl-H2O system at 323.15 K were obtained by fitting the measured water activities for this binary system. The calculated water activity and solubility isotherms for the CsCl-MgCl2-H2O system at 323.15 K, with binary parameters only, deviated from the experimental values. This means that it is insufficient with binary parameters only to represent the thermodynamic properties and to calculate the solubility isotherms of this ternary system at 323.15 K. The calculated solubility isotherms with binary and ternary parameters, obtained by fitting the measured water activity, also deviated from experimental values. New set of reasonable ternary parameters for CsCl-MgCl2-H2O system were obtained by fitting water activity and solubility data measured in this work. The calculated solubility isotherms with this set of parameters are consistent with experimental values.
