Abstract
In this paper the process of the copper (II) sulphate monohydrate from copper
(II) sulphate pentahydrate (also known as a Blue vitriol or Bluestone)
production was analyzed. Copper (II) sulphate pentahydrate is one of the most
important copper salts which has been known since the ancient Egyptians. In
the nineteenth century its application as a fungicide was discovered which
provoked wide industrial production. Molecule of the copper (II) sulphate
pentahydrate is a crystalohydrate with five water molecules linked by
chemical bonds to a molecule of the copper (II) sulphate. Copper (II)
sulphate exists as a series of compounds that differ in their degree of
hydratation. The anhydrous form is a pale green or gray-white powder, whereas
the pentahydrate (CuSO4•5H2O), the most commonly encountered salt, is bright
blue. In order to obtain copper (II) sulphate monohydrate from copper (II)
sulphate pentahydrate four water molecules need to be removed. To determine
the optimum temperature and time required for the removal of four water
molecules from a molecule of pentahydrate in this work thermogravimetric
(TGA) analysis was performed. Thermogravimetric (TGA) analysis - dehydration
of copper (II) sulphate pentahydrate is done using simultaneous TG-DSC
thermal analyzer DTG-Q600 SDT from TA Instruments. Analyzes was carried out
for two type of samples, the sample containing particles of the average
diameter equal to 0.17 mm and the particles of the average diameter 0.5 mm.
In addition, fluidization and drying curve was determined using a
semi-industrial fluidization column. On top, the industrial fluidization
column aimed to produce 300 tones per month of copper (II) sulphate
monohydrate was designed. Material and energy calculations were performed
using software packages Simprosys 3.0 and SuperPro Designer 5.1. Simprosys
3.0 is a software package designed for the modeling and simulation of a
drying process as well as for 20 different unit operations. SuperPro Designer
5.1 facilitates modeling, evaluation and optimization of different industrial
processes including drying. These softwares were applied for the calculation
of the air flow rate, heat exchange and for the scoping of a dryer.
