Abstract
The nucleation and growth kinetic parameters of paracetamol in an isopropanol−water antisolvent batch crystallizer were estimated by nonlinear regression in terms of the moments of the crystal population density. The moments were calculated using the measured chord length distribution (CLD) generated by the FBRM. The measured supersaturation by ATR-FTIR spectroscopy was also used to calculate the nucleation and growth rates using power law correlations. Using the estimated kinetic parameters, the crystallization model based on the population and mass balance, was validated using the open-loop experimental particle size distribution and supersaturation results. Subsequently, the solution to the optimal antisolvent flow-rate profiles was obtained by applying nonlinear constrained single- and multiobjective optimization on the validated model. These profiles were implemented on the crystallizer and crystal-size distributions were compared with the open-loop experiments. The bimodality in the particle size distribution (PSD), which was present in the open-loop experiments, was either minimized or completely eliminated with the optimal profile policies. The results of the multiobjective optimization showed an improvement of 27.5 μm and 3% in the volume weighted mean size and yield, respectively, in comparison to the best results obtained from the open-loop experiments.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
