Procedure
A crystallisation reactor was filled with 34 g water and 1.0 g cefaclor as seed. The above-mentioned acidic cefaclor solution was dosed into the crystallisation reactor in 60 minutes at 35° C. The pH was kept at 5.0 with ammonia. Subsequently, the temperature was lowered in steps: 30 min at 30° C., 30 min at 25° C., and 60 min at 20° C. The suspension was filtered through a glass filter and the wet cake was washed with one volume of water and two volumes of acetone. After drying, 15.7 g cefaclor monohydrate was obtained (purity 99.4%).
