Experimental data were ob- tained for an MSMPR crystallizer (S2). The slurry density is 169 g/L, the crystal den- sity p is 1.65 g/m, the residence time 7 is 6.57 h, and the shape factor a is 0.98. The screen analysis of the crystals is as follows: Mesh Wt% Mesh Wt% -14, +20 4.5 -35, +48- 31.5 -20, +28 14.5 -48, +65 15.5 -28, +35 24.0 -65, +100 7.5 -100 2.5 Using these data, do as follows: (a) Calculate the population density, growth rate, and nucleation rate. Also calculate the average size L.. b) Using these calculated values, predict the cumulative weight fraction ver- sus size L from the experimental value of G and T. Compare the predicted and experimental values. Experimental data were ob- tained for an MSMPR crystallizer (S2).
