A potassium chloride crystallizer that operates at 100F has a fines dissolution loop where the slurry temperature
Question:
A potassium chloride crystallizer that operates at 100°F has a fines dissolution loop where the slurry temperature is 130°F. The solubility of KCI is 39.3 g/100 g H2O at 100°F and 44 g/100 g H2O at 130°F.
(a) If the solution is initially supersaturated by to dissolve 10-μm crystals or 50-μm crystals if the change in solution concentration 1.0 g/100 g and the temperature is suddenly increased to 130°F, how long will it take is neglected?
(b) If the average crystal size in the fines loop 200 μm and the slurry has 30 g solid/L, how close to saturation will the solution be after 10 s at 130°F?

Step by Step Answer:
To answer this question we need to calculate the time it takes for the supersaturated solution to reach equilibrium at 130F and also estimate how close to saturation the solution will be after 10 seco...View the full answer
