Embodiment Construction

[0055] figure 1 A urea plant 1 (ie a plant for producing urea) is shown in a very schematic way.

[0056] The overall configuration of the urea plant 1 can be of one of several types, as is the urea production process implemented in the plant.

[0057] Here, reference is made by way of example only to a urea production plant / process according to the known "Snamprogetti" technology. It should be understood that the invention is also applicable to other urea production plants / processes using a vacuum concentration section or in any case at least one vacuum system.

[0058] In the non-limiting configuration shown, the urea plant 1 includes, but is not limited to: a urea synthesis reactor 6, in which the urea synthesis reaction from ammonia and carbon dioxide takes place; recovery sections 7, 8 and 9, in particular high pressure recovery section 7, Medium-pressure recovery section 8 and low-pressure recovery section 9, in which the urea solution produced in reactor 6 is graduall...

Abstract

An apparatus (20) for treatment of process vapours coming from a vacuum concentration section (10) of a urea plant, comprising a vacuum system (11) having a plurality of successive condensation stages(30), connected in series by respective line portions (31) and crossed in series by process vapours to be treated; the apparatus (20) has at least one primary steam condensate inlet (50) for feedingsteam condensate to the vacuum system (11) and positioned, with reference to a circulation direction of the process vapours in the vacuum system (11), upstream of at least one selected condensation stage (30), or in at least one selected condensation stage (30).

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This patent application claims priority from Italian Patent Application No. 102017000121364 filed on October 25, 2017, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The invention relates to a plant and a method for treating process vapors from the vacuum concentration section of a urea plant. Background technique [0004] Urea is known to be produced on an industrial scale by a process based on the reaction between carbon dioxide and ammonia at high temperature and pressure to form ammonium carbamate (intermediate), followed by a decomposition reaction of ammonium carbamate to provide urea and water of. [0005] The overall synthetic reaction is an equilibrium reaction adversely affected by excess water; since it is an equilibrium reaction, the reaction products must be separated from intermediates and unconverted reagents. [0006] In general, the urea synthesis reactio...
