ABSTRACT

Several models have been used for modeling of various liquid phases related to high temperature metal separation processes. Each model is based on a particular formalism such as cell, sub-lattice, quasichemical and association or on simple polynomial expansions of the excess Gibbs energy. They have been used with some certain degree of success for the evaluation of several high temperature separation processes for non-ferrous, ferrous and reactive metals and materials. However due to the assumptions they employ as well as the mathematical formulations they use, they all have several strong and week points. In this work these models are critically evaluated and compared in terms of their physical and chemical significance, their generality and simplicity and the number of mathematical parameters used.
