The complete investigation of the solubility of Ceftriaxone sodium drug has not yet been conducted. This communication investigates the solubility of Ceftriaxone sodium drug in supercritical CO2 (SC-CO2) for the first time. The drug solubility measurements were performed using utilizing UV–vis analysis under different operation conditions (at P (bar) = 120–270 and T (K) = 308–338). The results demonstrated that the solubility of Ceftriaxone sodium ranged from 0.90 × 10−6 to 8.01 × 10−6. The mole fraction solubility of Ceftriaxone sodium increases proportionally with an increase in the pressure, while maintaining a constant temperature. However, a crossover was noted. The solubility behavior of Ceftriaxone sodium drug in SC-CO2 was modeled by Peng-Robinson equation of state (PR EoS) with Kwak-Mansoori and van der Waals mixing rules and seven semi-empirical correlations (Bian et al., Kumar-Johnston, Chrastil, Garlapati-Madras, Bartle et al., Sung-Shim and Sodeifian et al.,). The vaporization, total and solvation enthalpies of the Ceftriaxone sodium/SC-carbon dioxide system were obtained by KJ, Chrastil, and Bartle et al. correlations. The evaluation of two methods was performed by absolute average relative deviation (AARD%). Both models exhibited a satisfactory level of agreement with the experimental data. Finally, PR/KM EoS and the Chrastil models, with AARD% values of 8.70 % and 8.10 % respectively, showed superior precision in accurately fitting the solubility data. |
