Abstract
A process for continuous dissolution of a solid in a reaction medium includes: (a) providing a liquid by withdrawal of a portion of the reaction medium from a first reaction vessel; (b) contacting the liquid provided in (a) with the solid in a second reaction vessel to form a solution of the solid; and (c) recycling the solution formed in step b) into the first reaction vessel. The solid in the second reaction vessel is present in the form of a fixed bed which is traversed by the liquid.

A process for continuous dissolution of a solid in a reaction medium, comprising:
- a) withdrawing a liquid, which is a portion of the reaction medium, from a first reaction vessel;
- b) contacting the liquid withdrawn from the first reaction vessel in a) with a solid in a second reaction vessel to form a solution of the solid, wherein the solid in the second reaction vessel is present in a form of a fixed bed which is traversed by the liquid;
- and
- c) recycling the solution formed in b) into the first reaction vessel.
A continuous dissolution system, comprising:
- a first reaction vessel comprising a reaction medium, and
- a second reaction vessel comprising a solid,
- wherein a portion of the reaction medium is withdrawn from the first reaction vessel and introduced to the second reaction vessel, thereby contacting the solid to form a solution of the solid,
- wherein the solution is recycled back to the first reaction vessel, and
- wherein the solid is present in a form of a fixed bed.
