6. Conclusion
A wide variety of melt crystallization processes are available to suit different industrial needs, from cold-wall layer crystallization in static or dynamic mode, to suspension crystallization in one or more scraped-surface crystallizers.
Melt crystallization meets the requirements of tomorrow's sustainable development processes:
low energy consumption;
solvent-free ;
operates at low thermal levels and is therefore suitable for heat-sensitive compounds, as well as being safer;
which can be very effective in a single step;
resulting in low investment and maintenance costs.
Intensification of these processes is possible, in particular by drawing on...
