Crystallization is the (natural or artificial) process of formation of solid crystals from a uniform solution or melt, or more rarely directly from a gas. Crystallization is also a chemical solid-liquid separation technique, in which mass transfer of a solute from the liquid solution to a pure solid crystalline phase occurs. Process The crystallization process consists of two major events, nucleation and crystal growth. Nucleation is the step where the solute molecules dispersed in the solven… (More on Crystallization)
