Abstract :
A new correlation which provides reliable solubility values down to very, very low concentrations is presented for solubility of alcohols in water. The correlation is based on boiling point temperature of the alcohol and can be used for engineering studies involving health, safety and environmental considerations. Results for water solubility and Henryʹs law constant are provided for a wide variety of alcohols. Representative solubility values (parts per million by weight) are 74,000 for n-butanol (C4H10O) and 4.0 for 1-dodecanol (C12H26O).
