Optimization of the carbonization and filtration processes in soda industry

The mathematical description of the ammonia-water carbonation process solutions of sodium chloride with special regard to the influence of temperature-and-supersaturation parameters on the filtration properties of the reaction suspension has been presented in this work. On the base of experimental results and literature data the correlation between the granulometric composition of sodium bicarbonate cystals and the specific resistance and the humidity of filter cake has been determined. New solution concerning the technology and apparatus of the carbonation node and the filtration on the industrial scale has been presented.
