Abstract
A new method that determines kinetic parameters from crystallization e xperiments (either batch or continuous) on a consistent basis is propo sed, thus making it possible to obtain parameter values from batch mea surements for the design of continuous crystallizers. The method also resolves the uncertainties arising from the use of commercial particle counters with different degree of accuracy. Experimental data obtaine d from stirred vessels and fluidized bed crystallizers were found to s upport the method.
