Key words: sub- and supercritical water-salt equilibria, critical phenomena, heterogenization of homogeneous SC fluids, hydrothermal salt solubility, ternary phase diagrams
Experimental studies of high temperature phase equilibria in the system BaCl2—NaCl—H2O determine the conditions when the homogeneous supercritical (SC) fluid, spreading from the binary subsystem BaCl2—H2O of type 2, transforms into the heterogeneous equilibria. These data also show that liquid-gas equilibria in ternary mixture can be continuously transformed into the immiscibility equilibria in the SC conditions. The comparison of the obtained experimental results with available data for the system K2SO4—KCl—H2O suggests that ternary systems with one volatile component formed by binary subsystems of type 2 with immiscibility and of type 1 without immiscibility have phase diagrams of the same type.
