Forced Circulation Crystallizer

For applications where high rates of evaporation are required, where there are scaling components, or when crystallization must be achieved in solutions with inverted solubility or relatively high viscosity, the Swenson Forced Circulation Crystallizer is the best choice.

This type of unit, also known as the circulating magma crystallizer or the mixed suspension mixed product removal (MSMPR) crystallizer, consists of a body sized for vapor release with a liquid level high enough to enclose the growing crystals. Suction from the lower portion of the body passes through a circulation pump and a heat exchanger and returns to the body through a tangent or vertical inlet. The heat exchanger is omitted when adiabatic cooling is sufficient to produce a yield of crystals
