Abstract:
1. An apparatus for controlling a crystallisation process, comprising: a vessel adapted to receive and discharge fluids, having an oscillator operatively connected to the vessel and adapted to impart oscillatory motion to at least one fluid within the vessel to initiate and maintain uniform mixing and efficient dispersion thereof, and having a series of cylindrical tubes, each defining a discrete process zone, the cylindrical tubes being configured to follow a succession of return paths in one plane and being arranged and operatively connected in a flow system to form at least one continuous fluid flow path having an inlet and an outlet, wherein a plurality of orificed plates that extend radially inwards towards the centre of the cylindrical tubes is provided within the flow path; temperature regulating means for effecting independent temperature control over the discrete process zones, the temperature regulating means comprising;
