Zusammenfassung:In a process for preparing dry crystalline alpha -L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine methyl ester having improved solubility (a) the crystallization of alpha -L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine methyl ester is carried out without causing a forced liquid flow in the crystallization medium, (b) the formed crystals are separated from the crystallization medium and subjected to a dewatering treatment to obtain wet crystals having a water content of not more than 50 wt.%, based on the overall weight of the wet crystals of alpha -L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine methyl ester, and (c) the obtained wet crystals having a water content of not more than 50 wt.% are continuously air dried by a pneumatic conveyor dryer with hot air at 80 to 200 DEG C until the water content has reached 2 to 6 wt.%. r
