Crystallization is one of the most common separation and purification techniques in the fine chemical and bio-pharmaceutical industries. Once considered an art, crystallization has developed into a sophisticated science rooted in understanding and control of particle nucleation, growth, agglomeration, and breakage. A crystallization process must take into account the complex interaction of particles with control parameters and process equipment. Often the crux of crystallization process development is the scale-up from the lab to manufacturing plant. Problems such as batch to batch inconsistencies in the crystals size distribution and the crystal purity profile can have a significant impact on product quality and downstream process unit operations including filtration, drying, milling, and product formulation.
