Design of Crystallizers for Mass Crystallization from a Solution

4 Design of Crystallizers for Mass Crystallization from a Solution 

A variety of crystallizers are available for mass crystallisation from solutions on a technical scale. These offer different crystal yields and various crystal qualities (purity, grain size, grain size distribution), which depends on the design, the operating conditions and the crystallization process. Classification, based on the operating mode, gives  

Individual type classes have to be distinguished in continuous operations, depending on the range of crystal grain distribution. Increasing the product quality requirements further complicates the design of crystallizers. Most continuous crystallizers within these classes are suitable for most crystallization processes (evaporation crys-
