Abstract

Effects of geometrical configurations of crystallizers upon the crystal size distribution have been quantitatively investigated using four types of baffles with different geometries, in batch crystallization of aluminum potassium sulfate in a seeded batch crystallizer agitated by a 6-bladed flat paddle. Two evident maxima in size distribution were obtained for a vessel with normal wall baffles, whereas the maximum at larger size disappeared and only single maximum was observed for other types of vessels. The difference was infered to the difference in the ability of agglomeration of crystals depending the geometries.
