Problems solved by technology

[0005] Literature (Petrochemical Industry, 2013, 42, 303-307) has reported that the use of visible phase reactors for supercritical CO 2 The study of microemulsion phase behavior, this device is to change the volume of the visible kettle by manually rotating the piston, so as to obtain the cloud point pressure. This method has the following problems: First, use the manual rotating piston to conduct experiments. Once the pressure is greater than 10MPa , the rotation of the piston will be very difficult, and the experiment will be time-consuming and laborious; secondly, the structure of the equipment is complex, not only the manufacturing cost is high, but also there will be big problems in the guarantee of sealing; thirdly, in the judgment of the cloud point pressure, it is different from the current literature Like many reports, the method of visual inspection is used, the accuracy of the measured data and the repeatability of the experiment are poor, and it is easy to cause large errors
However, this method needs to be equipped with a microscope with a CCD camera, which is costly. At the same time, it also needs special software for image processing. There are many operation steps, which is time-consuming, and it is an intermittent measurement method. The measurement results are discrete points. Since all time points cannot be covered, there is a large error in the measurement process
Supercritical CO 2 The phase behavior of the system needs to be observed in a special visible container. Since the high-temperature and high-pressure container requires a certain volume, and the setting of the window position will also limit the application of the microscope, direct observation with a microscope cannot meet the requirements of testing supercritical CO. 2 system cloud point requirements
