<onlyinclude>'''Crystallisation''' is the formation of crystals from a solution. In a crystal, the atoms or molecules are highly organised into a solid repetitive structure. "A solution is a mixture of two or more species that form a homogenous single phase. Solutions are normally thought of in terms of liquids, however, solutions may include solids suspension. Typically, the term solution has come to mean a liquid solution consisting a solvent, which is a liquid, and a solute, which is a solid, at the conditions of interest. The solution to be ready for crystallization must be supersaturated."<ref>Sattar Al-Jibbouri "Effects of Additives in Solution Crystallization", 2002, https://sundoc.bibliothek.uni-halle.de/diss-online/02/03H046/prom.pdf</ref>
