Abstract

This investigation details the Solid-Liquid Equilibria in the Quaternary phase system at 30° Centigrade of Manganous Sulfate - Ammonium Sulfate - Sodium Sulfate - Water. These three salts, with a common ion and water, are represented by the Janecke projection method and summarized in the tabulation of results.

Additional data were obtained on the applicable Ternary phase systems which were used in completing the Quaternary phase projection. The systems,

Manganous Sulfate - Ammonium Sulfate – Water

Manganous Sulfate - Sodium Sulfate – Water

Ammonium Sulfate - Sodium Sulfate – Water

are represented by the Roozeboom Equilateral Triangle mode.

This is the first time that this particular four component phase system has ever been presented.

The information, as detailed on the Janecke projection, can be used to guide practical operations for the recovery of high purity salts by crystallization from solution. In addition, the data presented can be used as a guide in operations requiring the preparation of pure aqueous electrolyte solutions.
