The present application relates to azeotrope or azeotrope-like compositions of 2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene and water. Heterogeneous azeotrope or azeotrope-like composition comprising 2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene (HFCO-1233xf) and water, which may comprise from about 0.09% to about 92.69% by weight of 2- Chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene (HFCO-1233xf) and about 7.31 wt% to about 99.91 wt% water and about 12.0 o C to about 13.6 o C at a pressure of about 12.5 psia to about 16.5 psia the boiling point. The azeotrope or azeotrope-like composition can be used to separate impurities including water from 2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene (HFCO-1233xf). |
