Crystallizer

There is no distinct 'Crystallizer' model within SysCAD, but the Evaporator model can be used to emulate a crystallizer.

The Evaporator is used to 'flash' a feed stream to produce a liquid and vapour product at a set pressure or temperature. When the vapour is flashed off the remaining solution is then supersaturated with the required species. This species then precipitates out as the crystal product.

If the user has solubility data for the species, then they may enable Solubility and SysCAD will automatically calculate the amount of species that precipitates. This will work for the standard solubility data and for Potash solubility.

Alternatively, the user may use the Reaction Block (RB) to set the precipitation reaction and extent.

Please see Evaporator for more information.
