The solubility was measured in a high-pressure solubility cell at temperatures 303.15, 313.15 and 333.15 K, over a CO2 pressure range of (2-25) bar. The effect of temperature, equilibrium CO2 pressure and Na-Phe concentration on CO2 loading were examined. Two different models namely modified Kent-Eisenberg and artificial neural network (ANN) were used to correlate the CO2 solubility data. Carbamate hydrolysis and amine deprotonation equilibrium constants were estimated as a function of temperature, pressure and solvent concentration from modified Kent-Eisenberg model. Also, the comparison of prediction results obtained from both modeling techniques was carried out. It was found that ANN model performed better than modified Kent-Eisenberg model. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. %O cited By 59 %D 2017 %A S. Garg %A A.M. Shariff %A M.S. Shaikh %A B.
