Recovery of nitric acid from raffinate and condensate solutions by steam distillation/pyrohydrolysis and fractional distillation in a glass column

Technical Report Dietrich, W. C.

Potential processes for the pilot-plant-scale purification and concentration of nitric acid condensate and raffinate solutions were studied. As a result, a process was developed where condensates were continuously purified by an aluminum nitratecalcium nitrate trap to reduce 200 to 300-ppM fluoride concentrations to <1 ppM. Next, the condensates were fed to an all-glass rectification column to concentrate nitric acid to 14 molar and to reduce 200 10 400-ppM chloride concentrations to <1 ppM. Finally, raffinates were steam distilled and pyrohydrolyzed to recover >90% of the nitrates as nitric acid. (auth)

Ternary distillation schemes with partial reboiler or partial condenser

Journal Article Agrawal, R ; Fidkowski, Z T - Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Research

For the separation of a liquid ternary mixture ABC (A being the most volatile and C the least volatile) into pure product streams, the possibility to further improve the performance of a direct sequence by replacing the total reboiler at the bottom of the first column receiving the ternary feed with a partial reboiler is explored in detail. The use of a partial reboiler leads to four distinct configurations having process streams of different enthalpies or different compositions that can be fed to the second column distilling B from C. At low to moderate values of relative volatilities ({alpha} approximatelymore »« less

On the use of intermediate reboilers in the rectifying section and condensers in the stripping section of a distillation column

Journal Article Agrawal, R ; Fidkowski, Z T - Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Research

Advantages of an intermediate reboiler in the stripping section of a distillation column and an intermediate condenser in the rectifying section are well-known. For highly nonideal mixtures the distillation process can be improved by placing an intermediate reboiler in the rectifying section of the column or an intermediate condenser in the stripping section, which is counterintuitive. In consequence the more expensive heating utility used in the bottom reboiler can be partially replaced with a less expensive heating medium (at a lower temperature) used in the intermediate reboiler. Similarly, a portion of the condensing duty from the top condenser can bemore »« less

Intermediate reboiler and condenser arrangement for binary distillation columns

Journal Article Agrawal, R ; Herron, D M - AIChE Journal

The most thermodynamically efficient configuration for adding or removing heat from an intermediate location of an ideal binary distillation column distilling pure products is derived. The optimal policy requires that preconditioning of the feed be part of the overall decision-making process. The optimal configuration can be determined through the use of two parameters, {alpha}{sub IR} and {alpha}{sub IC}, that are solely functions of feed composition. Simple and readily usable heuristics using these parameters are developed that help instantly identify the most efficient selection among (1) totally vaporizing and returning a side-draw liquid stream from an intermediate location of the distillationmore »« less

A New Framework for Combining a Condenser and Reboiler in a Configuration To Consolidate Distillation Columns

Journal Article Madenoor Ramapriya, Gautham ; Shenvi, Anirudh A. ; Tawarmalani, Mohit ; ... - Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Research

Heat and mass integration to consolidate distillation columns in a configuration is often characterized by elimination of a reboiler and condenser associated with the same components. We study a new and more general approach to column consolidation, of which the conventional approach is a special case. In the new approach, the reboiler of a column is coupled with the condenser of another, through heat and mass integration in an additional section (HMA-section). The introduction of an HMA-section eliminates multiple connecting streams/valves, reduces the number of reboilers, condensers, and distillation columns by one each, and reduces the heat duty of themore »« less
