Operational Principles and Design of Draft Tube Crystallizers

Draft tube crystallizers harness a distinct design to enable the crystallization process. , Primarily, these systems depend on a central pipe that guides the supersaturated solution along its length. As the solution flows through the draft tube, heat transfer are initiated. This results the growth of crystals, which then accumulate at the bottom of the reactor tank.

For maximum efficiency crystallization, several factors should be carefully considered. These encompass the concentration of the solution, heat transfer rate, solution velocity, and crystal size distribution.
