Abstract
The time behavior of the crystal size distribution in anti-solvent based crystal growth processes is investigated via statistical tools. The data are provided by the NaCl-water- ethanol anti-solvent crystallization system in a bench-scale fed-batch crystallization unit. It was found that the crystal population can be reasonably described in terms of a Gaussian or a Gamma distribution depending on the operating conditions.Items in DSpace are protected by copyright, with all rights reserved, unless otherwise indicated.
