Abstract:
The disclosure pertains to a urea production process wherein vapor from an evaporation unit for concentrating urea solution is condensed and the resulting process condensate, which contains urea originating from urea entrained in the vapor, is combined with a second urea solution to obtain a dilute urea solution that is suitable e.g. for DEF.
Abstract:
The disclosure pertains to a fluidized bed granulation process, for instance for urea melt. An embodiment of the process comprises providing a fluidized bed of the particles in a granulation compartment of the fluidized bed granulator; forming a film of the granulation liquid in the form of a hollow conical frustum projecting into the granulation compartment by supplying the granulation liquid through a first channel of a granulation nozzle; supplying secondary gas stream through a secondary gas channel of the granulation nozzle into the granulation compartment, wherein the secondary gas channel is provided as an annulus around the first channel, wherein the exit of the secondary gas channel is directly exposed to the fluidized bed in the granulation compartment, wherein particles from the fluidized bed are entrained in said secondary gas stream.
Abstract:
Embodiments pertain to a urea plant and to the operation of a urea plant in a reduced load mode. In embodiments, two evaporators in parallel are used, connected to a finishing section respectively to a melamine plant.
Abstract:
The disclosure pertains to a coupled plant process for the production of urea and melamine, with a urea synthesis section with HP CO2 stripping, and with a part of the CO2 feed supplied to a recovery section.
Abstract:
The application provides in an aspect a process for producing urea in a urea plant comprising a high pressure synthesis section comprising a reactor, wherein the process comprises reacting NH3 feed and CO2 feed under urea formation conditions in said reactor to form a urea synthesis solution comprising urea, water, carbamate and ammonia, wherein the process further comprises contacting a carbamate-containing liquid stream with an equipment part of said high pressure synthesis section that is made of a ferritic steel alloy.
Abstract:
The disclosure pertains to urea production with, in series, an MP carbamate condenser for condensing at least urea synthesis section off-gas, gas/liquid separation giving a gas stream and a liquid stream, and a second carbamate condenser receiving off-gas from melamine production and said liquid stream.
Abstract:
The disclosure pertains to a urea production plant and process using a thermal stripper, wherein the reaction mixture is separated in two parts, wherein the first part is supplied at least in part to the thermal stripper and the second part at least in part bypasses the thermal stripper and is supplied to a medium pressure recovery section.
