Abstract: The disclosure relates to a conveying storage device for containers, said device comprising: a first conveyor/second conveyor which is drivable in a first direction/second direction; a transfer device for transferring containers from a first conveying surface to a second conveying surface; an additional element; and a separating element. Between the transfer device and the separating element is a passage region along a transition region between the first and second conveying surface. The transfer device is movable into an emptying position during an emptying process. The additional element is movable during the emptying process relative to the transfer device, is introducible into the passage region or is located in the passage region, and can move containers to the second conveyor.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for selectively controlling the crystallisation mesotrione [2-(4-methylsulphonyl-2-nitrobenzoyl)cyclohexane-1,3-dione] from aqueous solution in which the aqueous mesotrione solution is introduced to a crystalliser containing seed crystals predominantly of the thermodynamically stable polymorph (“Form 1”) in a semi-continuous or continuous manner. The invention further relates to a process for converting the metastable polymorph (“Form 2”) of mesotrione to Form 1 by introducing an aqueous solution containing the former form to a crystalliser containing seed crystals predominantly of the latter form.
