From Molecules to Crystallizers

Informationen zum Autor Professor J Garside and Professor R Davey both at the Department of Chemical Engineering UMIST PO Box 88 Manchester M60 Klappentext Crystallization is one of the oldest separation processes used in the chemical industry and is still one of the most important. It is also going through an exciting renaissance with the result that it is becoming yet more central to the needs of the modern chemical industry. As well as its long-standing use in the commodity chemicals business! it is central to the fine and speciality areas. The emphasis in crystallization has thus been changing from the simple production of bulk solid particles to one in which ever higher standards and reproducibility of particle size! size distribution! crystal form and particle morphology are demanded in both product and process development. Zusammenfassung Crystallization is one of the oldest separation processes used in the chemical industry and is still one of the most important. The proposed primer will emphasize the link between a process engineering description of crystallizer design and operation and provide a thorough molecular level understanding of the kinetics of nucleation and crystal growth and of habit modification and polymorphism.
