    摘要: The present invention provides a continuous process for producing ammonium sulfate crystals, wherein said process comprises: i) feeding to a series of crystallization sections, which crystallization sections are heat integrated in series, a solution of ammonium sulfate; ii) crystallizing ammonium sulfate crystals from said solution of ammonium sulfate; iii) purging a fraction of the solution of ammonium sulfate from each of said crystallization sections; and iv) discharging ammonium sulfate crystals from each crystallization section, characterized in that: a fraction of said solution of ammonium sulfate is purged from at least one crystallization section to at least one other crystallization section; and an apparatus suitable for producing ammonium sulfate crystals.
