Abstract
- This paper describes a study on the shape control of potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) in batch cooling suspension crystallization by selecting the supersaturation as a media control variable. The effects of different cooling modes on the supersaturation level and hence on the crystal shape were investigated. The results clearly show that different shapes of crystals were obtained at the various supersaturation courses. When a specific shape of crystal is desired from suspension batch cooling crystallization, a suitable cooling mode should be selected and furthermore the optimal one can be found.
