Structure of solubility diagram of the quaternary Na, Са//So4, ta3-H2O water-salt system at 25oC
Abstract: The results of the solubility investigation in the quaternary Na, Ca//SO4, CO3-H2O water salt system along with its solubility diagram at 25oC are considered in this work. There are 4 invariant points, 8 monovariant curves and 6 divariant fields which are saturated with 3, 2 and 1 solid phases and their relevant equilibrium liquid phases respectively. The crystallization field of the calcite CaCO3 covers most of the part of solubility diagram of investigated quaternary water-salt Na, Ca//SO4, CO3-H2O system at 25oC, which signifies the low solubility of the latter salt in the given conditions.
Keyword: solubility, quaternary system, equilibrium, XRD.
The considered quaternary water-salt Na, HCO3, F-H2O system and its constituent five — and
Ca//SO4, CO3-H2O system is a part of more complex six-component Na, Ca//SO4, CO3, HCO3, F-H2O system whose phase equilibria knowledge determine the conditions of exploitation of liquid wastes released from the aluminum production. Wastewater outlets of regeneration of cryolite in aluminum smelters contain fluorides, carbonates, bicarbonates and sulfates of sodium and calcium [1-4]. The crystallization and dissolution processes of salts in aqueous solutions of these wastes are determined by the laws of phase equilibria in the six-component Na, Ca//SO4, CO3,
four-component subsystems.
In the present work; the results of investigation of quaternary Na, Ca//SO4, CO3-H2O system at 25oC by means of solubility method are deliberated with the purpose of establishing the concentration parameters at the geometrical figures of the system along with determining the ratio of the individual equilibrium crystallization fields of existing solid phases in the system.
Literature review shows that; the title quaternary system has not been investigated on the overall composition that is with the involvement of all its four components
simultaneously at 25oC. There are data on some more complex [5-10] systems at 25oC each of which also includes the quaternary Na, Ca//SO4, CO3-H2O system as a subsystem. But those data are unlikely employable on the system under our consideration; as the phase equilibria and a closed phase equilibria diagram is required in order to fully exploit the system ingredients.
The mineral solubilities to high ionic strengths in the multicomponent Na-K-Mg-Ca-H-Cl-SO4-OH-HCO3-CO3-CO2-H2O system which also involves the Na, Ca//SO4, CO3-H2O quaternary system as well have been predicted by Charles E. Harvie et al at 25 °C [9]. Unfortunately, neither the phase equilibria diagram has been deliberated thereby nor has the solubility diagram in the considered quaternary Na, Ca//SO4, CO3-H2O system at 25° been presented by the authors.
A chemical equilibrium model of solution behavior and solubility in the H-Na-K-Ca-OH-Cl- HSO4-SO4-H2O system to high concentration and temperatures are published by Christomir Christov and Nancy Moller [10]. Although the three; Na+, Ca 2+ and SO42-components of our considered quaternary system exist in the this multicomponent H-Na-K-Ca-OH-Cl-HSO4-SO4-H2O system and as the third C032-component is missing; it is already insufficient data for the determination of the phase equilibria in the quaternary water-salt Na, Ca//SO4, CO3-H2O system and do not enable one to construct its solubility diagram at 25oC.
As it is evident; the title quaternary Na, Ca//SO4, CO3-H2O system has not been tackled as an independent system in the latter two literature data [9,10]; they are far from enabling one the construction of the closed phase equilibria diagram of the system at 25oC and presenting the complete phase equilibria data at the geometrical figures of the diagram.
The two available data on the entire quaternary system where all its four Na+, Ca2+, SO42-and CO32-com-ponents are dealt as a single set were published in J. Phys. Chem., 11, 415, (1907) and Z. Anorg. Chem., 71, 206, (1911) by F. K. Cameron et al. [11, 13] and W. Herz respectively [12, 13]. The unfortunate case of these works is that; the authors have characterized the system with the presence of the just CaCO3 as the single solid phase which crystallizes in the system at 25oC. As it is dictated by the third basic principle of physicochemical analysis [14] along with the translation method [15; 16]; the geometrical figures of the n-component subsystems are transformed into a unit higher versions; that is the points to curves, the curves to fields and the fields to volumes etc. of the global sys-
tem and translated to the (n+1) - component overall composition. Hence the title quaternary system cannot be characterized with the presence of the only one solid phase when its entire composition is considered. Briefly, according to the founder of third fundamental "compatibility principle" of the physicochemical analysis — Goroshenko Ya. G.; all the solid phases which participate in the composition of the one component less subsystems are expected to take part in the structure of the global system which involves them. This criterion of the physicochemical analysis thus reveals the incompleteness of the latter [11; 12] works better.
The need for recourse on the ternary subsystems of the title quaternary system hence emerges hereby. Earlier the phase equilibria in the title system were investigated [17] by our team members and its schematic closed phase diagram was constructed by means of the translation method [15, 16]. The considered quaternary water-salt Na, Ca//SO4, CO3-H2O system is composed of the following four; Na2SO4-CaSO4-H2O, Na2 C03-CaC03-H2O, Na2SO4-Na2 C03-H2 O, and CaSO4-CaC03-H2O ternary subsystems. The data on the latter ternary subsystems [18-22] of the considered quaternary system were used in order to fully predict the phase equilibria and construct schematic phase equilibria diagram for the considered quaternary watersalt Na, Ca//SO4, CO3 — H2O system [17].
The system at 25oC has been characterized to involve 4 invariant points, 8 monovariant curves and 6 divariant fields which are saturated with 3, 2 and 1 equilibrium solid phases and relevant liquid phases respectively in latter work [17].
As we intend to determine the solubility at the previously predicted geometrical figures [17] and construct the comprehensive solubility diagram of the system in the present study; the experimental procedures have proceeded according to the solution saturation method [23] as follow below:
Initially, the composition of the saturated solutions at the ternary invariant points in; Na2SO4-CaSO4-H2O, Na2 C03-CaC03-H2O, Na2SO4-Na2 C03-H2 O and CaSO4-CaC03-H2O subsystems at 25 0 C of the investigated quaternary Na, Ca//SO4, C03-H2O system were prepared on the basis of the solubility data in literature [18-22]. There are the following six equilibrium solid phases: Na2SO4-10H2O — mirabillite (Mb); CaSO4-2H2O — gyp sum (Gp); Na2SO4-CaSO4 — glauberite (Gb); Na2CO3-CaCO3-5H2O — geylussite (Gl); CaC03 — calcite (Cl) and Na2CO3-10H2O — C-10 which crystallize in the quaternary Na, Ca//SO4,
C03-H2O system at 25oC. The following chemical reagents were used in the experiments: Na2SO4-10H2O (chemically pure); CaSO4-2H2O (chemically pure); Na2 C03 (pure) CaC03 (pure).
Next, the simulated mixtures of the quaternary invariant points which generate according to the translation schemes [17] of the relevant ternary invariant points to the quaternary composition were stirred until the equilibrium states have been reached. The temperature was controlled in G-8 type ultratermostate. The mixtures were stirred by a magnetic stirrer PD — 09 during 50 -100 hours. The temperature was maintained within ± 0,10 oC using contact thermometer. The crystallization of the solid phases was observed through
the "POLAM P-311" microscope. The equilibrium solid phases were photographed with a digital camera «SONY-DSC-S500». The equilibrium achievements were followed on the immutability of the phase compositions of precipitates. Separation of the liquid phase from the solid phases was carried out by a vacuum pump through ashless (blue ribbon) filter paper on a Buchner funnel. The precipitates which are obtained by the filtration were washed with 96% ethanol and dried at 120oC. The chemical analysis of the product was carried out by the known methods [24-26].
The obtained results from the crystal optical analyses [27] of the equilibrium solid phases (photomicrographs) are shown in Figure 1.
