  • Patent number: 10870619
    Abstract: The present application relates to a method for preparing L-methionine crystals with an improved bulk density. As the L-methionine crystals prepared according to the method for preparing L-methionine crystals of the present application may have a bulk density of up to 800 g/L, the L-methionine crystals are expected to reduce storage and transport costs of L-methionine powder and improve working conditions due to improved fluidity of the powder.
