An experimental study of the semi-batch precipitation of a copper-phthalocyanine-based dyestuff through a quench neutralization of the reaction solution was conducted to test micro- and macro-mixing effects on particle size distribution. A Lasentec® FBRM® instrument installed inside the precipitator allowed in situ monitoring of the particle size and counts of the precipitate during and after the semi-batch feed...
