PAT-Guided Development of a Mixing-Dependent, Slow-Filtering Crystallization System

Improving Filtration Performance with Process Changes

活动概述

  • Applying PAT to solve challenging process issues
  • Mitigating mixing risk in crystallization process
  • Improving filtration performance with process changes

Crystallization processes usually involve complex physical and chemical transformations that are sensitive to process design and parameters. Data-rich experimentation enabled by process analytical technologies provide better insight of the process.

In this example, a slow-growing crystallization system is studied with the help of EasyViewer to identify particle growth behavior. The images revealed active seed form being in-situ generated in a short time frame after seeding. The growth behavior of the crystal during cooling and antisolvent addition was used to design the crystallization process and improve filtration performance.
