This fifth edition of the classic text Crystallization has been extensively revised and incorporates all the recent developments in crystallization technology. Basic theories and research are covered in detail alongside industrial applications, with input from well-known researchers at the forefront of the area.The unit operation of crystallization is an extremely important and expanding activity in research and industrial application, particularly in the branches of chemical and process engineering concerned with pharmaceutical and fine chemical production.New and recently enhanced topics include:. control and separation of polymorphs. resolution of enantiomers. synthesis of molecular salts.processing of co-crystals. precipitation of proteins. production of nanopowders. crystallization from supercritical fluids. sonocrystallization - the use of ultrasound.Crystallization provides a comprehensive overview of the subject from fundamentals to applications, and equips all chemical engineers and industrial chemists in the process industries with a comprehensive reference to thetheory and application of crystallization unit operations and the design and operation of crystallization processes on an industrial production scale. The 'bible' of crystallization since the 1960s; now extensively revised to examinelatest developments and activities in the field* John Mullin, a world-renowned authority on crystallization, has assembled a team of contributors who at the forefront of current research who bring key new applications such as the production of nanopowders and new pharmaceutical production techniques* Assists scientists and engineers by addressing both the scientific and engineering aspects of crystallization in order to provide swift and clear guidance on their own requirements* Breadth of coverage: applications in almost all branches of the chemical and process industries ensure this is a comprehensive handbook
