Disclosed is a preparation system and a preparation method for high-quality xylitol crystals. The preparation system comprises a blending tank, a heat exchanger, a decolorization tank, an ion exchange system, a microporous filter, a first evaporator, a first crystallization kettle, a first centrifuge, a fluidization drying bed, a xylitol dissolution tank, a second evaporator, a second crystallization kettle, a second centrifuge, a hot air drying tank, and a cold air fluidization bed sequentially connected through pipelines. Liquid outlet of the first centrifuge is connected with first inlet of the blending tank. Liquid outlet of the second centrifuge is connected with first inlet of the xylitol dissolution tank. The blending tank is provided with second inlet for receiving xylitol hydrogenation solution. The xylitol dissolution tank is provided with water inlet for pure water. The material output from a product outlet of the cold air fluidization bed is xylitol crystal product. First prepared xylitol crystals are redissolved and recrystallized to prepare xylitol crystals with higher pH and better flavor.

The embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for crystallizing compound sugar solution of xylose and sucrose, including: introducing a mixed solution of sucrose crystals, xylose crystals and water into a crystallization device, setting a stirring speed in a range of 60 rpm-120 rpm, a temperature in a range of 75° C.-80° C., a vacuum pump pressure in a range of 50 mbar-200 mbar, evaporating the mixed solution until a Brix value of the mixed solution reaches a range of 78 Brix-81 Brix, and stopping the vacuum evaporation, adjusting the temperature to a range of 70° C.-75° C., dropwise adding food-grade isopropanol solution or ethanol solution to the evaporated mixed solution, adding sucrose seed crystals, and continuing stirring to obtain a solution, when small seed crystals grow in the solution, dropping the temperature to a range of 40° C.-60° C. at a rate of 10° C./h, and then stirring for 6 h to obtain the mixed sugar solution; centrifuging and drying at 40° C.-60° C. to obtain a finished product of the compound sugar crystals of the xylose and the sucrose. The obtained finished product has a complete crystal form similar to the sucrose and a sweetness similar to the sucrose and a uniform taste, which meets preferences of the consumers.
