【 摘 要 】

This project addresses the energy efficiency and productivity of solids manufacturing and separation processes that use crystallization. The overall objective is to develop crystallization simulation technology and software tools that significantly improve industry's ability to predict and control product quality and optimize process and equipment performance while reducing energy use. This project addresses both levels of simulation models of importance to industry: (1) Process flowsheet models, and (2) Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models of process components. The project results are delivered in commercial software products that allow industry to predict and optimize the performance of real industrial crystallization processes.
