For Steam-Gas Mixtures or Brines

Instead of the specific volume of pure water: Use the specific volume of the mixture times the weight fraction of water in the mixture

Brines boil and become more concentrated with increasing temperature or decreasing pressure Salt dissolved in gas or “steam” becomes less concentrated (brine condenses) with increasing temperature or decreasing pressure

NaCl + H2O = NaOH + HCl° 2NaCl + SiO2 + H2O = Na2Si2O5 + 2HCl° Na2Si2O5 is less soluble at higher temperatures

CaCl2 + 2H2O = Ca(OH)2 + 2HCl°

With silica present that reacts with Ca(OH)2 , expect a greater yield of HCl°

CaCl2 + SiO2 + H2O = CaSiO3 + 2HCl°
