AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

During the transportation process, the ammonia production gas of urea must maintain a temperature above 140°C, otherwise it will cause the ammonia gas to react inversely with carbon dioxide, forming carbamate, causing equipment blockage. At the same time, the existing technology adopts a two-way switching method to easily cause fluctuations in the product gas pressure, affecting the stability of ammonia supply, and requires additional energy consumption to desorption and recovery of the absorbent.

Method used

A gas treatment device for urea ammonia production is adopted, including a boiler, urea hydrolyzer, drying device, heating device, decarbonizing device and reaction device. Through drying and decarbonizing treatment, the stable drying of product gas and the continuous removal of CO2 are achieved, which avoids the heat tracing of product gas, reduces energy consumption, and reuses the desiccant and decarbonizing agent through the heat of the boiler flue gas.

Benefits of technology

The stable drying and CO2 removal of urea ammonia product gas is achieved, and no heat tracing is required, which reduces energy consumption, improves the reliability of the system, avoids crystallization blockage caused by low temperature of the product gas, and ensures the stability of the product gas pressure.
