A unique set of transferable parameters for the unlike inter- actions are used which allow the prediction of the phase behaviour of different members of the series with little experimental data. A change in phase behaviour from type II in the van Konynenburg scheme (continuous gas–liquid critical line and liquid–liquid immiscibility at low temperatures) for CO2 + n-dodecane, to type IV (discontinuous gas–liquid critical line and liquid–liquid immiscibility) for CO2 + n-tridecane, and to type III (continuous transi- tion from gas–liquid to liquid–liquid critical behaviour) for CO2 + n-tetradecane is observed in agreement with experimental data.}, organization = {F.J.B. would like to thank the Oil Extraction Program of the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) for a research fellowship (GR/N20317), and A.G. would like to thank the EPSRC for the award of an Advanced Research Fellowship.
