Stochastic analysis of the Transient Behavior of an msmpr Crystallizer: Effects of the Seed Size Distribution and Size- Dependent Growth Rate

  • S. T. Chou (a1) and J. P. Hsu (a2)
Abstract

The transient crystal size distribution (CSD) in a continuous mixed suspension, mixed product removal crystallizer has been modeled through a stochastic approach. Effects of the seed size distribution and size-dependent growth rate on both the transient and steady-state CSD have been investigated. It has been found that the seed size distribution causes a maximum in the steady-state CSD and the size-dependent growth rate results in an upward curvature at the lower end in a semilogarithmic plot of steady-state CSD against crystal size. Under appropriate conditions, the mean CSD of the present stochastic model reduces to the results predicted by the corresponding deterministic population balance model.
