<p>Separation of components in a liquid mixture by fractional crystallisation in which crystallisation takes place on the outer surface of a tube as refrigeration fluid is expanded, cooled, and then sprayed against the bore at the top from where it trickles down to the bottom. The crystals are removed in a second phase in which the tubes act as the condenser, warming and melting the crystals. Additional heat may be supplied from external sources, if required.Also claimed is the equipment required for this process.</p> |
