Abstract: A lobe pump is provided. The lobe pump may include a housing having an inlet and an outlet for a medium to be pumped, at least one lobe mounted in the housing so as to be drivable and rotatable and which has at least two conveying vanes, and at least one sealing element per lobe mounted on a sealing body. The at least one sealing element runs over a contour of the at least one lobe during rotation of the at least one lobe and performs an outward travel movement from a minimum diameter of the at least one lobe to a maximum diameter of the at least one lobe and an inward travel movement from the maximum diameter of the at least one lobe to the minimum diameter of the at least one lobe on different sides of each of the at least two conveying vanes.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cooling crystallizer (2.0) for saccharose magma in a vertically oriented container (2.1) which has an upper inlet (2.2) for supplying magma and a lower outlet (2.3) for discharging magma, comprising multiple cooling blocks (5.0) which are mutually spaced in a vertical direction. A heat carrier fluid flows through the cooling blocks (5.0), and the cooling blocks are coupled to a heat exchanger in order to dissipate heat from the magma, wherein multiple cooling blocks (5.0) are combined to form a cooling packet (5.1; 5.2), and the cooling packets (5.1; 5.2) are designed as separate cooling circuits with separate heat exchangers (2.1.2; 2.2.2).
