A kinetic model for predicting the crystal growth rate of KCl in the KCl–MgCl2–H2O system over the temperature range of 278.15 to 323.15 K was built based on the supersaturation calculation by the mixed-solvent electrolyte (MSE) model embedded in the OLI platform (version 3.2). The kinetics of KCl crystallization was evaluated by the expression of the crystal growth rate as a function of difference in the chemical potential of KCl in the supersaturated and saturated solutions. The effects of temperature (278.15–323.15 K) and supersaturation (0.02–0.08) on the crystal growth rate of KCl in the KCl–MgCl2–H2O system were subsequently explored by the new model. Results showed that the crystal growth rate of KCl, with the activation energy of 99.08 kJ·mol–1, was strongly temperature-dependent and increased with increasing temperature at a fixed supersaturation. Moreover, the effect of MgCl2 concentration on the crystal growth rate of KCl in saturated KCl solution was also investigated in cooling and salting-ou...
