Problems solved by technology

The existing production process generally adopts pressurized neutralization technology with higher concentration of nitric acid (56%-62%) and ammonia. The heat of reaction is taken away with the ammonium nitrate solution and process steam, and is gradually lost during the production process. And it is necessary to add external heat (such as steam) to concentrate the ammonium nitrate, resulting in a waste of energy

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a concentrated ammonium nitrate solution through flash evaporation. The method comprises that after nitric acid and ammonia gas undergo a pressurization reaction to produce a dilute ammonium nitrate solution (with a concentration of about 75-80wt%), the dilute ammonium nitrate solution is concentrated to a high concentration of 90-96wt% under action of reaction heat through one step in a pressure reduction flash evaporation device so that a desired concentrated ammonium nitrate solution product is obtained. The method reasonably utilizes energy and is free of ammonium nitrate solution multistage condensation of the traditional ammonium nitrate production technology so that energy is saved, a production process is simple, an investment is reduced and a production cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for producing ammonium nitrate concentrated solution, in particular to a method for preparing ammonium nitrate concentrated solution by flash evaporation. Background technique [0002] Nitric acid and ammonia will undergo a very violent chemical reaction, and the reaction can be used to produce ammonium nitrate. The reaction equation is as follows: [0003] NH 3 ↑+HNO 3 =NH 4 NO 3 +Q [0004] It can be seen from the equation that a large amount of heat will be released in the reaction process, and the released heat has a great relationship with the concentration of the raw material nitric acid. The higher the concentration of nitric acid, the greater the released heat. The existing production process generally adopts pressurized neutralization technology with higher concentration of nitric acid (56%-62%) and ammonia. The heat of reaction is taken away with the ammonium nitrate solution and process steam, and is gr...
