    摘要: A stripper for stripping a urea/carbamate mixture. The stripper comprises a shell and a plurality of tubes disposed within the shell. A shell-side space is provided between the tubes and the shell. A first heating fluid inlet, a second heating fluid inlet, and a heating fluid outlet are in fluid connection with the shell-side space. The second heating fluid inlet is disposed between the first heating fluid inlet and the heating fluid outlet. Related uses, systems, and methods are provided as well.

    摘要: A steam network assembly for a plant including an ammonia-producing unit and a urea-producing unit, including a high-pressure steam line, two medium-pressure steam lines and first and second turbines supplied with high-pressure steam by the high-pressure steam line; wherein the first turbine is a condensing-type turbine with extraction into one of the two medium-pressure steam lines, and is configured to deliver power to a syngas compressor in the ammonia-producing unit of the plant, and the second turbine is a counter-pressure type turbine with extraction connected to the two medium-pressure steam lines and is configured to deliver power to a CO2 compressor in the urea-producing unit of the plant. A method to distribute high-pressure steam in a steam network assembly for a plant including an ammonia-producing unit and a urea-producing unit and a method to revamp the steam network assembly for a plant including an ammonia-producing unit and a urea-producing unit.
