CRYSTALLIZATION
1. A crystallizer is charged with 100kg of solution containing 25% Ba (NO₂)2 in water. On
cooling 10% of original water present evaporates. Calculate yield of crystals when solution is
cooled to 283K.
The solubility at 283K is 7 kg Ba (NO3)2/100 kg total water
2. A solution of K₂Cr₂O7 in water contains 13%by weight. From 1000kg of this solution 640
kg of water is evaporated. The remaining solution is cooled to 20°C. Calculate the amount and
% yield of K₂Cr₂O7 crystals formed.
Solubility at 20°C = 0.39 kmol/1000kg water
3.5000 kg of KCI are present in a saturated solution at 80°C and 20°C are 55 parts and 35 parts
per 100 parts of water.
(i) Assuming water equal to 3% by wt of solution is lost by evaporation, calculate the weight
crystals formed.
(ii) calculate the yield of crystals neglecting loss of water by evaporation, KCI crystallizes
without any water of crystals.
4.In a crystallization process 2500kg of Glauber salt crystallizes. The mother liquor leaving the
process contains 20% Na₂SO4 and during the process 2.5% of feed evaporates as water vapour.
If the feed has 40% Na₂SO4 find the weights of feed, mother liquor and loss of water by
evaporation.
5, 1000kg of a solution containing 25% Na₂CO3 is slowly cooled at 20°C, During cooling 15%
of water originally evaporates. What is the wt of Na₂CO310H₂O crystals formed.
The solubility of Na₂CO3 at 20°C is 21.5 kg/100 kg of water.
Drying
1. A batch of leather leaving a dryer weighs 1000 kg and contains 5% moisture. During
drying the leather loses 50% of its original weight. Determine the following: i) The
moisture content of the leather entering the dryer on a dry basis ii) The amount of
moisture removed per kg of bone dry leather iii) Water removed as percent of the
original water present
2. Wet paper containing 75% water is dried to remove 80% of water present. Determine
the composition of the dried paper.
3. Wet lumber (5%moisture) is dried to 1% moisture in a hot air drier. Air fed to the drier
contains 0.5% water. The moisture leaving the drier contains 2% (by wt) water. How
much air is required to dry 2000kg/h of lumber.
