Crystallization / Sonocrystallization
The application of ultrasound in crystallization operations (by cooling, heating or chemical reaction) accelerates the formation of the solid, or reduces induction time and reduces the size of crystals formed with equivalent oversaturation. Ultrasound could be an alternative to the often used industrial seeding. Indeed, the use of ultrasound results in the formation of a large number of nuclei in a short time.
A specific device for continuous crystallization, the SONOCRYSTAL, was designed jointly by our company in collaboration with the research center. It offers a new way of applying ultrasound, maximizing their effect while minimizing dissipated energy.
