Problem 12.11-1 (Geankoplis)
G2 5CHEA - JEAN RAYNELL BELLO
Problem 12.11-1
Crystallization of Ba(NO3)2. A hot solution of Ba(NO3)2 from an evaporator contains 30.6 kg Ba(NO3)2/100 kg H2O and goes to a crystallizer, where the solution is cooled and Ba(NO3)2 crystallizes. On cooling, 10% of the original water present evaporates. For a feed solution of 100 kg total, calculate the following:
a. The yield of crystals if the solution is cooled to 290 K (17°C), where the solubility is 8.6 kg Ba(NO3)2/100 kg total water.
b. The yield if cooled instead to 283 K, where the solubility is 7.0 kg Ba(NO3)2/100 kg total water.
