Notes:
Cascades of crystallizers are applied in many industrial processes. The optimization of the filterability of crystals produced in such a cascade is dealt with, since a good filterability is often one of the main product specifications. An integral model description of the crystallization process is developed that allows for the prediction of the crystal size distribution and the filterability in each stage of the cascade, and experiments are performed to support this model. The integral model can be used as a predictive tool in future filterability optimization studies.
