Crystallization Process Systems

Crystallization Process Systems gives a clear, concise, balanced and up to date presentation of crystallization and solid-liquid separation of crystalline products. It emphasizes the analysis, design, operation and optimization of particulate crystallization processes as systems, in order to assist process engineers and chemists decide on the best, cheapest and most effective production method to use for their application.

In addition to providing background on classical crystallization, this book includes modern techniques such as CFD of crystallization systems. It thoroughly covers the impact of mixing on crystallization, and balances theory with the practical aspects of crystallizer design and practical scale-up.
