I need an expert to perform calculations related to freezing
Thread Content
The original brine solution contains 22 g/L of potassium, 55 g/L of sodium, and 230 g/L of sulfate ions; its density is 1.18. Freezing the raw material is intended to precipitate the potassium and sodium salts present in it. The temperature is reduced from 40°C to minus 20°C. It takes 20 hours to process 300 cubic meters of raw material, which means a processing rate of 15 cubic meters per hour. There are approximately 200 tons of salts in total, so the salt output is 10 tons per hour. What size of freezer is suitable for this purpose? It is more reasonable to freeze it in several sections
Find a refrigeration machine manufacturer; they will help you do the calculations. It is calculated in cold tons. It is recommended to choose a unit with a cooling capacity of 1.2–1.5 times the required amount, as this results in a higher COP. At the same time, if there is a large difference in the temperature of the original liquid, it is recommended to use both large and small mode settings.
