Abstract

This paper proposes a model of continuous MSMPR crystallizer and compares with the experimental data. The mathematical model is suitable to describe size-dependent kinetic processes, which is able to modelling from the size-independent growth rate to the linear and nonlinear size-dependent growth rate by properly tuned parameters. The numerical solution is developed by computer algorithms in Matlab environment. The result of mathematical model can be solved in steady-state process. We were fitting the kinetic parameters in the model to the experimental data. Furthermore the influence of the parameter of size-dependent growth kinetic model to the population density function was analyzed. Our model was compared with some of widely used crystal growth kinetic model.
