Abstract:
The membrane assisted cooling crystallization was proposed and investigated by the simulation and experiments. The developed process model concerned the supersaturation evolution on the membrane interface, the combined nucleation rate in the crystallizer. The impact of different membrane on reducing the nucleation barrier was investigated by introducing the metastable zone width theory. The influence of membrane distillation conditions on the crystal nucleation and growth kinetic was uncovered based on the simulation and experiments results. The experimental results indicated that membrane assisted cooling mode with optimized profiles did improve the crystal size distribution and crystal habit comparing with conventional cooling mode. Terminal coefficient of variation decreased from 55.4 to 33.9 under similar mean crystal growth rate, 2.27 x 10(-7) m s(-1) (conventional cooling) and 1.98 x 10(-7) m s(-1) (membrane assisted cooling). Finally, the brief summary on the advantages and key issues of this propose membrane assisted crystallization operation were concluded.
