Crystallization Kinetics of Calcium Lactate in a Mixed-Suspension-Mixed-Product Removal Crystallizer

Abstract

Continuous crystallization of calcium lactate pentahydrate was investigated in a mixed-suspension-mixed-product removal crystallizer. Wide ranges of the mean residence time, relative supersaturation, and magma density were covered (40−215 min, 0.01−1.12, and 2−65 kg/m3, respectively). Crystal growth was found to be dependent on crystal size. The Abegg, Stevens, and Larson model and the Mydlarz and Jones model were tested for the determination of the kinetics parameters from experimental results. Zero-size and larger size crystal growth rate values were found to be on the order of 10-13 and 10-8 m/s, respectively. A first-order growth kinetics resulted for both large and small crystals. Nucleation rate values were very high (≈1013−1015 no./m3·s). Nucleation kinetics could not be described by a unique power law equation because two different nucleation mechanisms appeared to control crystallization at low and high residence times, respectively.

Operating Strategy for Continuous Multistage Mixed Suspension and Mixed Product Removal (MSMPR) Crystallization Processes Depending on Crystallization Kinetic Parameters

“…The ranges of variation for the growth and nucleation rate orders were selected to incorporate the experimentally estimated kinetic parameters from the literature. 11,33,[42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49] By varying the orders, the CSD in the product effluent stream can be determined when each order is higher or lower than 1. The range of variation of the stage number was one to ten, even though the stage number would generally not be more than six.…”

Efficient magnesium lactate production with in situ product removal by crystallization

“…In this study, product (calculated as L-lactic acid) concentrations of the supernatants didn't change obviously, and a higher efficiency of crystallization was observed with the increase of initial product concentration. Chemaly et al (1999) reported that the nucleation was strongly dependent on supersaturating, and more seed crystals of magnesium lactate could be formed during fermentation with a higher relative supersaturation. In explaining the growth rate of crystals, the surface integration mechanism was reported more adequate .…”
