An MSMPR crystallizer is used as a cooling crystallizer to produce potassium sulfate crystals. The crystallizer is fed with monosized seed crystals (50 um) at a rate of 2.5 tonne per hour. The required residence time and measured growth rate are available from pilot plant trials and given below. • Calculate the product CSD and median crystal size. • What must the inlet liquor concentration be? • What is the required crystallizer volume? Penstal = 2,660 kg m' a, = 0.7 Pmagma = 250 kg m-3 G =1.27 x10-8ms T= 4 hr B = 0 An MSMPR crystallizer is used as a cooling crystallizer to produce potassium sulfate crystals.
