A general method for visualizing high‐dimensional phase diagrams of systems containing a mixture of molecular and ionic species is presented. Based on geometric modeling with homogeneous coordinates, canonical coordinates are developed to represent cuts and projections, which, being reaction‐invariant, do not depend on the degree of ionization. Examples are provided to illustrate the application of this method for identifying useful transforms with potential applications in separation system synthesis.
