Influence of Mn(II), Cu(II) and Al(III) Ions on Size and Habit of Ammonium Sulphate Crystals

  • Chapter
Industrial Crystallization

Abstract

The effects of various additives (Mn2+, Cu2+, Al3+) on the process of ammonium sulphate crystallization were investigated at varying rates of supersaturation of its solutions and at different intensities of agitation. Since ammonium sulphate represents a hulk quantity product, a considerable interest has been given to the possibilities of improving its quality. As it is chemically indifferent to most admixtures, it is possible to study the influence of a wide range of additives on its crystallization and properties. We selected bivalent cations Mn2+ and Cu2+, whose favourable effects have been known and qualitatively described in literature, and Al3+ ion, which is considered to be one of the generally most effective additives.
