Abstract :
Nucleation and crystal growth from solution have been monitored in real time using ultrasound. A stainless steel test cell was designed in which a small volume of hot saturated copper (II) sulphate solution cools and crystallises. The hardware and software developed could be modified for in-line crystallisation monitoring
