Flowsheet of urea manufacturing?
Answers
Answer:
here is your answer.
Explanation:
Urea by Montecatini Process: Process description : Ammonia and carbon dioxide are compressed separately and added to the high pressure autoclave which must be water cooled due to highly exothermic reaction. The average residence time in the autoclave, which is operated on a continuous basis, is 1.5 to 2 hrs. a mixture of urea, ammonium cabamate, water and unreacted NH3 and CO2 results. This liquid effluent is let down to 27 atms and feed to a special flash evaporator containing gas liquid separator and condenser. unreacted NH3, CO2 and water as a solution are removed and recycled. An aqueous solution of carbamate urea is passed to the atmospheric flash drum where further decomposition of carbamate takes place. The off gases from this step can either be recycled or sent to ammonia process for making chemical fertilizers. The 80% aqueous urea solution can be used as it is or sent to a vacuum evaporator to obtained molten urea containing less than 1% water. The molten mass is them sprayed into prilling or granular solidification tower. To avoid formation of biuret in percentage > 1% , the temperature must be kept just above the melting point for processing time of 1-2 seconds in this phase of the operation.
