Effect of off-bottom clearance of a turbine type impeller on crystal size distribution of aluminum potassium sulfate in a batch crystallizer

Effect of mixing on the crystal size distribution of borax decahydrate in a batch cooling crystallizer

“…It has important role as an agent that modifies the structure of glasses, especially in the production of ultra thin screens, etc. In order to produce crystals of borax with a specified purity and CSD at minimum cost, it is necessary to operate the crystallizer at the optimum mixing conditions [4][5][6]. Mechanical stirred system equipped with a straight blade turbine in the vessel with a flat bottom was used during experimental procedure.…”

Influence of Impeller Diameter on Crystal Growth Kinetics of Borax in a Mixed Dual‐Impeller Batch‐Cooling Crystallizer

“…Some general effects of mixing on the process of crystallization have been explained in literature . It affects both the process of nucleation as well as the process of crystal growth that follows it.…”

“…Among other parameters, choosing the appropriate crystallizer geometry includes selecting a suitable impeller design since it will determine the hydrodynamics in the vessel. Most of the experimental researches on this topic have been conducted in a single‐impeller crystallizer . Multiple‐impeller systems, which are interesting from an industrial point of view, are seldom investigated , .…”

Borax Crystallization Kinetics in a Pitched‐Blade Turbine/Straight‐Blade Turbine Dual‐Impeller Crystallizer

“…It has already been proven that mixing influences crystallization kinetics in single‐impeller systems . But researches concerning dual‐impeller systems are still quite rare , , even though the use of multiple impeller systems is very common in chemical and other related industries.…”
