Crystallization

Module

The ENTEXS Crystallizer platform takes distillate to pure isolate. This platform is designed to mate with the ENTEXS extraction platform but can also operate as a stand-alone isolation solution. Featuring fully automated crystallization routines, this system enables fully closed-loop processing of distillate to isolate including solvent recovery from mother liquor. 

ENTEXS Crystallization Module

This system meters distillate and solvent input to the pre-isolation mixing tank controls mixing temperature via closed-loop PID routines, features automated vacuum assist the transfer of product to and from process tanks, controls crystal nucleation via agitation and temperature ramps, and features filtered isolate collection vessels with post crystallization drying routines.

The Crystallizer reactors feature vacuum-rated triple-walled thermally jacketed tanks with agitation and mechanical sealing. A fire-rated solvent enclosure enables safe and efficient solvent replacement and recovery while enabling a C1D2 Classified operating environment.
