In this study, the mixed semiclathrate hydrate phase equilibrium condition of carbon dioxide in presence of various concentrations of TBANO3 solution was determined using isochoric method. The mole fractions of TBANO3 employed were 0.5, 1.0 and 3.0%. The presence of TBANO3 reduces the hydrate phase equilibrium of CO2 considerably. Increase in concentration of TBANO3 decreases the mixed semiclathrate hydrate formation conditions. From the equilibrium data, enthalpy of dissociation of the mixed semiclathrate hydrate was calculated using the Clausius – Clapeyron equation. The calculated enthalpy of dissociation for mixed semiclathrate hydrate with various concentration employed in this study were similar suggesting formation of same mixed semiclathrate hydrate structure. The thermodynamic model of Paricaud [J. Phys. Chem. B 2011, 115, 288-299] was extended and found to fit the experimental data reasonably well.
