Swenson Walker Crystallizer

DINESH Swenson Walker Crystallizer is designed to demonstrate and

stimulate the phenomena of crystallization.
Swenson Walker crystallizer is a continuous

type crystallizer. This operation involves both

Dheat and mass transfer. Crystallization is the

YNAM
formation

of

solid

particles

within

I homogeneous phase. Its wide use has a twoCfold basis; a crystal formed from an impure
Ssolution is itself pure.

OFThe setup consists of a top open jacketed

DS

round bottom trough. A ribbon mixer is

MACH
provided in crystallizer trough, which rotates at low rpm for agitation of saturated
I solution. The saturated solution is prepared in a tank fitted with heater and a stirrer.
NThis hot saturated solution is fed at one end of the crystallizer and flows slowly towards
Ethe other end while being cooled and is allowed to flow back in hot feed tank making the
process continuous. The crystals sediments at the bottom of the trough, and can be

washed out at the end of process. Arrangement for Cooling water circulation and flow

measurement in jacket is made by using storage type water tank, a pump and a

BOR

rotameter. Necessary instrumentation is done for temp measurement
