This work studied the reversible dehydration of potassium carbonate sesquihydrate (K2CO3·1.5H2O). The study is based on isobaric and isothermal thermogravimetric measurements conducted at a broad range vapour pressures temperatures. By controlling both parameters, we examined influence constraints reaction kinetics wide extent supersaturations. We have evaluated our experimental findings by emp...

A methodology for multi-level conceptual design and analysis of crystallization-based separation processes involving electrolyte systems is presented. The methodology consists of three main parts: thermodynamic part (level 1), flowsheet design/analysis part (level 2) and flowsheet validation (simulation) part (level 3). In this paper, the integration of the thermodynamic and design/analysis par...

We propose a discrete transition-based reweighting analysis method (dTRAM) for analyzing configuration-space-discretized simulation trajectories produced at different thermodynamic states (temperatures, Hamiltonians, etc.) dTRAM provides maximum-likelihood estimates of stationary quantities (probabilities, free energies, expectation values) at any thermodynamic state. In contrast to the weighte...
