    Abstract: Disclosed is a novel method of controlling the formation of biuret in urea production, and particularly reducing, preventing or reversing such formation. This is accomplished by adding liquid ammonia to a urea aqueous stream. This addition is done at one or more positions downstream of a recovery section in a urea plant. The addition of liquid ammonia serves to shift the equilibrium of biuret formation from urea, to the side of the formation of urea from biuret and ammonia. The invention can be accomplished also in pre-existing urea plant, by the simple measure of providing an appropriate inlet for liquid ammonia, in fluid communication with a source of such liquid ammonia.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for the removal of urea dust from the off-gas of a finishing section (1) of a urea production plant, the method comprises subjecting the off-gas to quenching with water (06) so as to produce quenched off-gas, and subjecting the quenched off-gas to scrubbing using at least one venturi scrubber (11). As a result, a lower pressure drop over the scrubber is attained, and a more efficient growth of urea particles, facilitating the removal thereof.
