Embodiment 1

[0117] figure 1 A schematic overview of one arrangement that may be used to practice an embodiment of the invention is provided.

[0118] exist figure 1 , provide CO to the synthesis section 3 2 1 and NH 3 2. The reaction conditions for the formation of crude urea mixture 4 are applied. The crude urea mixture 4 is divided in the condenser belonging to the separation section 23 into a process condensate 6 and a first aqueous urea solution 5 , the typical composition of which is shown in Table 1. The gaseous effluent 20 in the separation section 23 can be fed back to the synthesis section 3 for further reaction.

[0119] The first aqueous urea solution 5 can be further concentrated in a pre-evaporator 15 to obtain a concentrated second aqueous urea solution 14 , whose typical composition is shown in Table 1.

[0120] The process condensate 6 is fed into the first stripper column 7 located above the second stripper column 8 such that the gaseous effluent from the second stri...

[0127] figure 2 A practical implementation and implementation of a process condensate treatment plant according to the invention is depicted. At the top of the first desorption column 7 a process condensate 6b and recovered process condensate 6a are provided. The first desorption column 7 is located above the second desorption column 8 such that the gaseous effluent from the second desorption column 8 is fed into the bottom of the first desorption column 7 . Low pressure steam 18 is fed into the bottom of the second desorption column 8 , but no liquid can travel directly from the first desorption column 7 to the second desorption column 8 . The first partially purified stream 9 , 13 leaves the bottom of the first stripper column 7 . Most of the CO present in the process condensate 6 2 and NH 3 It is removed in the first stripper column 7 as shown in Table 1 and exits via the top of the first stripper column 7 as gaseous effluent 21 . The gaseous effluent 21 is fed to a c...

Embodiment 4

[0133] This example provides the relationship between different streams and urea concentrations.

[0134] if:

[0135] - Purified water stream 12 = "A" (expressed in t / h)

[0136] - First partially purified stream 13 = "B" (expressed in t / h)

[0137] - Flow rate of the second concentrated aqueous urea solution 14 = "C" (expressed in t / h)

[0138] - Flow rate of target aqueous urea composition 17 = "D" (expressed in t / h)

[0139] - The weight fraction of urea in the second concentrated aqueous urea solution 14 is "X" (typically 80% by weight, thus a weight fraction of 0.80)

[0140] - The weight fraction of urea in the target aqueous urea solution 17 is "Y" (typically 50% to 52% by weight, therefore 0.52)

[0141] - The ratio between "A" and "B" (fraction of "A" in total A+B) is "Z" (typically 0.40 to 0.60)

[0142] then:

[0143] D=C / X*Y (or, of course: C=D / Y*X)

[0144] A+B=(C*X / Y)*(1-Y)-C*(1-X)

[0145] In addition, A=(A+B)*Z

[0146] Therefore, B=(A+B)*(1-Z)

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing a urea solution with a target urea concentration by using water flows recovered from the urea production process. At least part of the water flows recovered from the urea production process are only partially purified to produce the urea solution. The invention further relates to a process condensate treatment plant to implement the method for producing the urea solution with a target urea concentration, and the urea production plant comprising such process condensate treatment plant.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for preparing a urea solution, more particularly to a method for preparing a urea solution having a target urea concentration. The invention also relates to an installation for carrying out such a method. Background technique [0002] During the urea production process, NH 3 and CO 2 Reacts to a crude mixture of urea and water. The formation reaction involves the first formation of carbamate, which is converted to urea and water in a second step. These two steps can theoretically be represented by the following formulas (I) and (II): [0003] [0004] [0005] Typically, this crude urea mixture formed in the process is separated into an aqueous urea solution and a process condensate. Typically, the process condensate is replaced by unreacted feedstock, i.e. NH 3 and CO 2 and even a small amount of urea contamination, and this favors an aqueous urea solution containing much less unreacted raw materi...
