METHOD FOR CRYSTALLIZING MONOSODIUM GLUTAMATE MONOHYDRATE CRYSTAL

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing a crystal without roughening on the crystal surface required in the market in a crystallizing step of the monosodium glutamate monohydrate crystal. SOLUTION: This crystallizing method for providing the monosodium glutamate monohydrate crystal is characterized by carrying out the crystallization of the monosodium glutamate monohydrate under conditions so that the degree of supersaturation S [-] is <=1.06+64.31*(8.43*10-9/U)1/2 when the relative velocity between an aqueous solution containing sodium glutamate and the crystal is U [m/s] in the method for stirring and crystallizing the monosodium glutamate monohydrate crystal from the aqueous solution.
