Table 1. Applied Experimental Settings of the 24–1 Fractional Factorial Design.

  lower level (−) center point upper level (+)
pPVP-K12[w/wFMT%] 0 1.25 2.5
f[RPM] 200 300 400
BE[yes or no] no -a yes
RT [min]b(FR [mL/min])c 82.5 (10) 55 (15) 41.25 (20)
a

BE is a categorical factor; therefore, center point is not interpretable.

b

Residence time values to be set in batch experiment representing 1 RT in continuous operation.

c

Flow rate values to be set in continuous crystallization.
