Crystal shape and size control using a plug flow crystallization configuration
Contributor(s):: Sang-Il Kwon, Joseph, Nayhouse, Michael Orkoulas, Gerassimos
This work focuses on modeling and control of a continuous plug flow crystallizer (PFC) used to produce tetragonal hen-egg-white (HEW) lysozyme crystals and proposes an optimization-based control scheme to produce crystals with desired size and shape distributions in the presence of disturbances....
