# ''Tank crystallizers''. Tank crystallization is an old method still used in some specialized cases. Saturated solutions, in tank crystallization, are allowed to cool in open tanks. After a period of time the mother liquor is drained and the crystals removed. Nucleation and size of crystals are difficult to control.{{citation needed|date=April 2016}} Typically, labor costs are very high.{{citation needed|date=April 2016}}
# ''Mixed-Suspension, Mixed-Product-Removal (MSMPR)'': MSMPR is used for much larger scale inorganic crystallization. MSMPR can crystalize solutions in a continuous manner.<ref>{{Cite web |title=MSMPR Crystallizer {{!}} Practical Solubility Science {{!}} Prof Steven Abbott |url=https://www.stevenabbott.co.uk/practical-solubility/MSMPR.php |access-date=2024-05-25 |website=www.stevenabbott.co.uk}}</ref>
