Abstract
► A design strategy to optimize cooling crystallization for lactose refining was developed. ► Minimum fines were produced through effectively avoiding secondary nucleation. ► Existing industrial lactose refining was improved through fundamental research. ► CFD simulations enhanced understanding of the correlations between crystallizer mixing profile, crystallization kinetics and encrustation probability.
