When the dominant
rate-mechanisms within a mixed-suspension mixed-product
removal (MSMPR) crystallizer are secondary nucleation and size-independent
linear crystal growth, the effluent crystal distribution is guaranteed
to exhibit a single polymorphic solid form at steady state. However,
multiple solid forms are often simultaneously observed during the
continuous precipitation of CaCO3. Accounting for agglomeration
within the population balance reconciles model predictions with experiments.
Here, we elucidate the steady state structure and linear stability
features of an agglomeration-enabled continuous precipitator model.
We demonstrate that one can make rational process design and operation
decisions to select the effluent solid form, regardless of its thermodynamic
stability. Specifically, we utilize these results to choose process
conditions that yield pure, thermodynamically metastable vaterite
during CaCO3 precipitation, based on powder X-ray diffraction,
solid-state 43Ca NMR, and scanning electron microscopy.
This new design framework enables predictive modeling of CaCO3 precipitation, but more generally, it is expected to enable
rational decision making during the design and operation of other
agglomerative precipitation processes for which solid form selection
is desired.
