The crystallization takes place in the scraped surface heat exchanger (SSHE) which is the heart of the crystallization line. The product is pumped into the chilling tubes, cooled and crystallized. Constant centrifugal force keeps the scrapers pressed against the interior walls of each tube, ensuring highly efficient removal of crystallized product鈥攔egardless of its consistency.
