Description

For technique and the relevant device of drying melamine crystal
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of technique for drying melamine crystal and relevant device.
The invention belongs to the technical field of the industrial technology manufacturing trimeric cyanamide.
Especially, the present invention relates to a kind of for the improving technique of drying from the pure melamine crystal of production unit, in described production unit, in suspension liquid environment, use the known device of the particular separation technology of solid, rely on centrifugation or filtration that described crystal is separated with crystallization mother liquor especially.
Background technology
The pure melamine crystal utilizing these known devices to be separated is the form of cake in the exit of solid/liquid separation means, and described cake has the solid consistency of mother liquor, the solid consistency of described mother liquor between 5% to 15%, preferably from 8% to 12%.
Consider the character of trimeric cyanamide, dry this cake may cause various problems.
In fact it is known that when trimeric cyanamide carries out drying, if accurately do not control the temperature and time of drying process, then may there is decomposing phenomenon, make titre reduction and product have painted.
It is also known that higher than under the temperature condition of 220 DEG C, may there is the signs of degradation of trimeric cyanamide, this signs of degradation is directly proportional to temperature and the residence time both under described temperature condition.Therefore, at cold condition prolonged operation (operating 2-3 hour under 160-170 DEG C of temperature condition) and the identical result that at high temperature can obtain drying products purity and color in short period operation (at 270-290 DEG C of temperature condition little operation 0.5-2 minute).
The trimeric cyanamide titre of market demands is extremely high and be typically in the close limit of 99.8% to 99.99%, and the painted numerical value measured by APHA instrument (see regulation ASTMD1209-69) lower than 20, must be preferably lower than 10.
In order to obtain the drying products with these features, the production technology imagination of the high-purity melamine that the producer adopts uses relatively low temperature during drying stage, and this must all can be mutually compatible with the drying operation normally implemented at ambient pressure conditions in any situation.Therefore the temperature adopted is usually less than 200 DEG C, is preferably lower than 170 DEG C.
And another factor affecting drying products quality is the amount of the microlite wherein contained.For this reason, due to the friability of melamine crystals, so-called indirect hot wall moisture eliminator is preferred, in this indirect hot wall moisture eliminator, by heated wall transferring heat: the product to be dried contacted with heated wall is heated, and the moisture evaporation immersing product falls.
Such moisture eliminator had not only been used as dry device relative to air but also had been used as to allow to use for the flash type dryers of carrier device the air of much less, therefore the air of a tittle is only needed, the air of a described tittle must be sent on product to be dried, for the volatile products (in most of the cases, water) immersed in trimeric cyanamide cake is transported towards the external world.As also disclosed in the state of the art, which avoid air and carry product to be dried, thus the generation of fine powder is minimized, the collision between described fine powder is derived from because of fine powder or the melamine crystals destroyed with the collision of drying plant wall.
Be referred to as hot wall moisture eliminator or also referred to as the feature of the indirect heat transfer moisture eliminator of contact drying device: there is heated wall that is fixing or that rotate, cake to be dried is sent in described heated wall, and they are made in a variety of manners.In trimeric cyanamide dry technology, the most widely used type is so-called going barrel moisture eliminator.
Such moisture eliminator has the enough heating surface be usually made out of tubes, described pipe to be positioned in rotational circle cylindrical shell and with the integral rotation of described rotational circle cylindrical shell, heating medium (typically, the water vapour of condensation) is sent in described pipe.In the equipment from application AlliedSignal/Eurotecnica technology in 1961, employ such moisture eliminator, described moisture eliminator operates under the temperature condition of low pressure slightly and 160 DEG C-170 DEG C.
The hot wall moisture eliminator of other type multiple is proposed by professional constructor.In the moisture eliminator of these other types, may be mentioned to and produce the heating pan dryer used in trimeric cyanamide process.
The common ground of all these moisture eliminators is low air consumption, as already mentioned, and the formation of this restriction fine powder.But their relatively high residence time of needing solid to flow in drying plant.According to the type of adopted moisture eliminator, the maximum value that residence time of solid can to change over from the minimum value of 0.5 hour 3 hours or more hour, in fact residence time of described solid is limited by the ratio be present between the quality of the solid of moisture eliminator inside and the flow rate of cake to be dried under weighing (regime) operational conditions in constant standard.It is required that long residence time keeps in touch one section for melamine crystals provides the time of evaporating and immersing needed for evaporation of water heat for the melamine crystals guaranteeing to wet and hot wall.
As previous defined, use the air of minimum to allow to obtain high-quality drying products, this is because the formation of fine powder is reduced to minimum, and the quality of the long residence time of solid in moisture eliminator to dry finished product causes negative impact.In fact, it should be noted that, in rotary-type moisture eliminator, by promoting and falling to affecting the advance of product more subsequently, result makes product bear lasting shock, and this is tending towards crystal is pulverized, thus forms tiny product, therefore, increase and the residence time of described tiny product and/or the number of times that falls again are directly proportional.These Considerations also show: long residence time inevitable requirement reduces drying temperature most possibly, to avoid the signs of degradation that trimeric cyanamide occurs, described signs of degradation mainly may reduce titre along with change product colour and because forming degraded byproduct and occur.Low temperature during drying stage can be favorable factor, this is because it reduces or eliminates the signs of degradation of trimeric cyanamide and therefore keep the product A PHA color according to regulation and titre; But exist in crystallization cake and can decomposes divide the period of the day from 11 p.m. to 1 a.m to have counter productive: in fact, the minimum trimeric cyanamide titre numerical value that the existence of these molecules not destroyed during carrying out drying process under cryogenic prevents drying products from reaching desired, described titre numerical value is as discussed previously must higher than 99.8%.
Occur when in fact aftermentioned situation makes product to be dried be separated with saturated solution when there is ammonia by crystallization, this is specific situation in the Melamine Production Technology that the present invention relates to.
Impact is actually according to the element-specific of drying process of the present invention exists ammonia until close at the end of preparation technology of melamine: as long as there is ammonia in containing the solution of ammonia, then except the trimeric cyanamide formation reaction that causes because of urea pyrolysis (result formation ammonia) and except other the Undec byproduct produced, this also causes the byproduct creating the reaction be derived between ammonia and carbonic acid gas.
In this case, together with trimeric cyanamide, a large amount of volatile salt, supercarbonate and carbonate (and urea, biuret, contracting triuret, guanamine, urea groups guanamine, benzo guanamine etc.) is there is in wet cake, if do not eliminate these materials, then it can reduce the titre of finished product.
In contact drying device, because the molecule of volatile salt, supercarbonate and carbonate can thermolysis, so by appropriately combined two main operating parameters: temperature and the residence time make them can be destroyed during drying process (and being transformed into gaseous ammonia and carbonic acid gas).
It is also important to note that, low drying temperature inevitable requirement is for the large exchange surface of conducting heat and therefore need the size of moisture eliminator larger, this obviously increases the residence time of solid in moisture eliminator, be not reduce trimeric cyanamide degradation rate but increase the degradation rate of trimeric cyanamide.
Such as, and there is tiny product in order to eliminate in may still containing in the wet air of ammonia of the exit of moisture eliminator, can imagine filtering element, the sock cover be made up of fabric, described filtering element resists the alkaline environment produced because there is ammonia.
Finally, the wet air containing ammonia leaving moisture eliminator must be sent to washer after by the filter element for separating of tiny product, at described washer place, suitably washs it with water, to isolate ammonia.Do not have the washed air of ammonia to be discharged in air, and the solution leaving washer is recycled to preparation technology of melamine, and finally contributes to the waste water forming the equipment of leaving.Cause losing organic product and output because this reducing preparation technology of melamine to the process of this waste water.
Other defect of such contact drying device possible hot wall in the first part of the ingress of wet cake mainly at moisture eliminator form crust.
There is mother liquor together with owing to existing to soak into and cause wet plate to have nature viscosity, in fact the block structure of wet plate to be dried can cause has material to retain on the hot surface of moisture eliminator, thus forming crust, the time that described crust keeps under the temperature condition of heated wall on the internal surface of moisture eliminator is longer than the Normal residence time of dry product far away.
Therefore, the specific precautionary measures must be adopted to prevent or to minimize the formation of crust, otherwise trimeric cyanamide thermal destruction can be caused, because described crust is attached to heated wall and therefore remain in the time that maximum dry next section of temperature condition is longer than Normal residence time far away.Except the monocrystalline in larger crystallization group occurs except sintering phenomenon, this thermal destruction also results in trimeric cyanamide to be had painted and/or reduces the result of titre of trimeric cyanamide.
In order to limit these less desirable phenomenons, in trimeric cyanamide producing apparatus, have employed multiple systems, such as, the mechanical vibration of dryer shell, the cycle cleaning of moisture eliminator, moreover, if necessary, screening and mill-drying product.
In brief, therefore, following item is the subject matter relevant with using contact drying device that is rotary or disc type or defect:
The sizable storage of-Yin makes the dead time of product long;
-consider the service temperature of filter element, the amount of dry air must be excessive can not reach the value close to dew point value, thus prevent filter element moist and then block because remaining attached to the product on surface.But excessive use air causes and must be separated subsequently and the formation of the more substantial tiny product removed and pollution in moisture eliminator;
-Yin wet product remain on pipe (in spin drier) or because of coil (in pan dryer) surface on non-new layer and cause formed crust; These crust depart from once in a while, thus are finally arranged in finished product, even and if crust is positioned at the path fragmentation of moisture eliminator inside along them, and they still cause there is crystal grain and assemble, and described crystal grain gathering has the size being defined as " thin slice ";
-need the cycle clean to remove crust, described crust is partial to heat exchange surface (this manipulation require production unit shut-down time of about two days) gradually;
-produce tiny product pro rata with residence time of about 3 hours.
The alternative solution imagination of the aforementioned contact formula moisture eliminator used in some industrial technologies uses turbo drier, in turbo drier, under the mechanical effect of blade rotor, during trimeric cyanamide is put into practice barometric point and moisture eliminator inwall be in 225 DEG C to the temperature condition within the scope of 280 DEG C under contact one period of residence time with the heated wall of moisture eliminator, the described residence time preferably at 15 seconds within the scope of 100 seconds, described blade rotor is to the centrifugation of wet trimeric cyanamide cake, wherein, the air introduced or the gas flow of nitrogen are for maintaining the turbulent state of the melamine crystals of drying.
Leave the above-mentioned process standing the contact drying device for rotary or disc type containing the wet air of ammonia of moisture eliminator:
-clash into and mutually clash into due to the particle of product and blade and dry wall, and due to high rotating speed (be 410g/m relative to the spin drier of 2.6g/m), result in tiny product increases;
-need excessive air to carry out operational outfit, follow-uply must process described excess air (for 30, the equipment of 000MTPY, for from 3 of spin drier, the air of 500kg/h, air to be processed corresponds to 12,000kg/h), this needs use to have larger sized air-treating unit, and result causes larger investment and running cost;
-extremely short residence time, this makes not allow complete thermal destruction byproduct (for average 2.7 hours of spin drier, be less than 5 minutes, be preferably less than 1 minute).Result, this decomposition continues lentamente to occur in the product packed, form ammonia and water, thus cause the final utilization place place opening bag (strong ammonia taste) to have serious environmental pollution, and the product caking caused because forming wet area may be there is.
-in the coflow (flowinequicurrent) of moisture eliminator inner air/product: the damp atmosphere containing ammonia is retained in the inter-particulate spaces of wrapped product, ammonia pollution is there is in result in packaging area, and once cooling, discharge moisture in the product, result forms caking;
-equipment operates under the condition of high revolution and high-temperature (up to 280 DEG C); therefore during construction phase, need specific accuracy and the specific maintenance of machine of needs; described maintenance of machine must be implemented at least in part by same constructor; contact drying device cost than other type is higher, causes the complexity of equipment to start and shutdown procedure.
Finally, when representing the flash type dryers of other viable alternatives being used for trimeric cyanamide drying process, the subject matter relevant with their usage and defect as follows:
-(air is also as carrier for the pending excess air containing ammonia, and required air capacity for there is identical potential rotary contact type moisture eliminator needed for 13 times of air, for 3 of the equipment of 30,000MTPY, 500kg/h is 45,000kg/h);
-in moisture eliminator inner air/product coflow: the wet air containing ammonia is retained in the inter-particulate spaces of packaged product, and result, in packaging area, ammonia pollution occurs, and once cooling, discharges moisture in the product, and result forms caking;
The shock of-Yin product particle and dry wall and product particle mutually clash into and add tiny product;
If-use combustion product gases direct heating air, then may polluted product.
Therefore, in the dry field of trimeric cyanamide, the common trait of aforementioned all moisture eliminators of prior art state uses air to remove water vapour, and described water vapour is formed during evaporate identical water from trimeric cyanamide to be dried.When not having air, maintenance is trapped in the inter-particulate spaces of product by this water vapour, and result is once trimeric cyanamide leaves moisture eliminator, then during trimeric cyanamide cooling stages, water vapour condenses again.
As has already been mentioned above, be also according to the basic sides of technique of the present invention: trimeric cyanamide to be dried wet cake suction mother liquor in there is ammonia.This situation that there is ammonia needs to process the wet air leaving moisture eliminator especially, and as mentioned above, this process comprises:
-such as filter the wet air containing ammonia by filter element, for separating of and remove by the tiny product of described air bearing, the sock cover that described filter element is such as made up of fabric is formed, and described filtering element resists the alkaline environment produced because there is ammonia;
-make ammonia and air separation by absorbing (washing) with water and reclaim;
-equipment waste water is directly proportional to the water yield used in washing process, and is therefore directly proportional to air capacity;
-reclaim ammonia solution by recirculation in processing section;
-after drying, can washing and cleaned air venting in air or be recycled in moisture eliminator.
Therefore, it is evident that, the air capacity used in moisture eliminator for above-mentioned process size (sizing) and efficiency extremely important.
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to overcome above-mentioned defect, described defect is the feature of prior art.
In fact, found out that wondrous, the contact drying device of the drying process permission non-turbine formula moisture eliminator of improvement obtains the product of high quality drying when the operational condition suitably optimized.
Therefore, object of the present invention relates to a kind of technique for going out melamine crystals from the saturated solution drying containing ammonia, described technique is included in the drying stage implemented in contact drying device, wherein, wet trimeric cyanamide to be dried is made to contact for some time with the heated wall of moisture eliminator under higher than the condition of 230 DEG C, the described time is within the scope of 1 to 30 minute, and the weight ratio of the air capacity be wherein fed in moisture eliminator and trimeric cyanamide to be dried is in the scope from 0.6:1 to 1.2:1.
Preferably can implement the technique being used for drying melamine crystal under from 230 DEG C to the temperature condition within the scope of 250 DEG C.This technique preferably can implement for some time, described for some time from the scope of 2 minutes to 15 minutes, even more preferably from the scope of 5 minutes to 8 minutes.Preferably, this technique can be implemented under the air capacity being fed to moisture eliminator is relative to condition in the scope from 0.7:1 to 0.8:1 of the weight ratio of trimeric cyanamide to be dried.
Temperature condition according to the present invention allows to obtain the delivery air that temperature is higher in proportion, and therefore, described delivery air is away from condensation point; This causes other advantage operated under the condition of less air capacity, although still away from saturated.The air of decrease is used also to cause to air supply and make the size of the ventilation installation needed for air movement reduce relevant energy to save.
The present invention is surprisingly found out that: the drying stage implemented with optimal conditions allow to carry out in contact drying device simultaneously trimeric cyanamide drying and can the decomposition of byproduct of decomposes, thus obtaining high-quality finished product, described contact drying device is as mentioned above neither turbo drier also non-flash type dryers.
Air to be supplied to moisture eliminator preferably supplies upstream relative to the flowing of trimeric cyanamide to be dried.
Contact drying device is rotary-type moisture eliminator preferably, wherein, at outermost some place, circumferential speed in the scope from 0.2m/s to 2m/s, preferably in the scope from 0.4m/s to 0.8m/s.The wet cake entered in an end of cylinder moves with the opposed end of desired rate of translation towards described cylinder because of rotation.
Drying products from drying stage is the form of flowing powder.In this powder, the particle being preferably less than 125 microns accounts for 90%, and the particle being less than 250 microns accounts for 97%, and described in any situation, powder does not all have the particle being greater than 350 microns.
And this drying products meets high quality commerical prod specification, such as, such as, by weight higher than 99.8% titre and lower than 20 alpha (Alpha) color.
Follow-up finishing stage can be comprised according to technique of the present invention, wherein, warm air to be in from the temperature condition in the scope of 120 DEG C to 180 DEG C and the residence time from the scope of 5 minutes to 300 minutes, preferably from the scope of 20 minutes to 200 minutes, even more preferably from the scope of 40 minutes to 120 minutes.
In suitable decomposition/calibration devices, implement described finishing stage, described decomposition/calibration devices can be the device be separated with moisture eliminator or the device become one with moisture eliminator.
Technique according to the present invention has had been found that the optimum range of temperature, the residence time and air capacity, and described optimum range allows to implement drying process in rotary-type universal contact formula moisture eliminator, obtains following advantage simultaneously:
-relative to the air capacity needed for the drying process implemented in flash type dryers or turbo drier, need less air capacity;
-dry air can be carried upstream relative to trimeric cyanamide to be dried, and this solution to minimize or eliminates in drying products existing wet containing ammonia air;
-because the slow speed of revolution can not cause crystal block to be destroyed, so compared with flash type dryers or turbo drier, decrease the generation of tiny product;
-because shorten the residence time, so compared with the contact drying device operated under from 100 DEG C to the temperature condition within the scope of 200 DEG C, decrease the generation of tiny product;
-avoid the risk polluted by combustion product gases;
-compared with the temperature of the contact drying device run with traditional mode, operate under higher temperature condition, the moisture eliminator used in the process according to the present invention does not need arrest surface: can obtain the inner contact surface contacted with product under there is not product to keep the condition in static region, but, allow to carry out optimum drying to trimeric cyanamide at short notice simultaneously;
-moisture eliminator does not need the cycle to clean, reason is: the arrest surface that in fact there is not wet product, in described arrest surface, product to be tending towards being attached on moisture eliminator and fouling on the dryer, formed subsequently and depart from and the thin slice be finally present in finished product, thus negative impact is caused to feature.
Therefore, relevant with the air capacity used in drying process according in the advantage of drying process of the present invention, as mentioned above, moisture eliminator is supplied air to: supply upstream or with identical flow direction relative to the flowing of trimeric cyanamide to be dried with following condition, preferably adverse current supply, and the weight ratio of air and trimeric cyanamide to be dried is in the scope from 0.6:1 to 1.2:1, preferably in the scope from 0.7:1 to 0.8:1.
The air requirements in drying process can be divided as follows:
-for removing the air needed for water vapor and ammonia;
-excessive diluent air.
In fact the air capacity of supply must be guaranteed to remove the water vapour because evaporation produces containing the ammoniacal liquor in trimeric cyanamide to be dried and ammonia, a part for the air simultaneously supplied is excess air, and described excess air fully departs from diluent air needed for dew point as allowing the temperature and humidity per-cent of air.Under the condition of the service temperature of filter element, this anti-sealing may condense and result makes trimeric cyanamide remain in is suitable for being separated and reclaims by the surface of the self-contained tiny product of air.
In the rotary-type contact drying device operated in the temperature range of 120 DEG C to 170 DEG C, the air capacity of supply is generally 1:1 with the weight ratio of product to be dried of the water containing about 10%.
Under the temperature condition of 160 DEG C to 170 DEG C under air fed condition, obtain a kind of air output temperature at this ratio, it is the nargin (margin) of about 40 DEG C that air output temperature has relative to dew point.In fact, consider the adverse current cleaning cycle that the actual temperature of filtering surface is implemented because of freezing air and even lower, further reduce this nargin.
Because the amount of tiny product and size are directly proportional to the speed of the air of moisture eliminator inside, so the air capacity of supply is larger, then the amount of the tiny product carried is larger.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, therefore the total amount of the air of supply needed for above-mentioned purpose: the total air supplied during drying stage from the scope of 20% to 60%, preferably from the scope of 30% to 50%, and even more preferably being fed in moisture eliminator from the portion of air in the scope of 30% to 40%, and total air of supply from the scope of 40% to 80%, preferably from the scope of 50% to 70%, more preferably being fed in the pipeline of the air leaving moisture eliminator from its remainder air in the scope of 60% to 70%, described pipeline is preferably close to the downstream of moisture eliminator self.
In fact, it has surprisingly been found that: in order to remove water vapour, just enough relative to the air of relatively low amount of the total air being supplied to moisture eliminator: in a preferred embodiment, therefore imagine air fed amount and reduce even more, this guarantees:
-good carry speed, guarantee to there is not water vapour completely in output products;
-by the amount of the air of filtering surface, humidity percentage and outlet temperature with by whole air being supplied to quantity that moisture eliminator obtains, humidity percentage is identical with outlet temperature.
According to this preferred embodiment, therefore usually obtain following result:
-remove the water vapour formed because evaporation contains the water in solid to be dried;
-keep air by filtering element under away from the humidity percentage of dew point and temperature condition,
Other advantage below can adding to the preferred embodiment according to technique of the present invention described:
-when formed and the tiny product carried reduces only, reduce 70% by the amount of the air of moisture eliminator;
-dry air can be carried upstream relative to trimeric cyanamide to be dried flowing, and this solution minimizes or eliminates exist in drying products wet containing ammonia air;
-pass through the filtering surface needed for amount reduction reducing tiny product, in fact, reduce plugging rate and reduce the relative increase of pressure drop;
The amount of-tiny product to be removed in process reduces.
Other object of the present invention relates to a kind of equipment for implementing drying step in the drying process of melamine crystals, described equipment comprises contact drying device and one or more filter element being positioned at moisture eliminator downstream, described filter element is used for filtering wet air at dryer export place, it is characterized in that, the surface that moisture eliminator imagination is a kind of does not have trimeric cyanamide to be dried to adhere to or to be attached, the structure in place or region.
The air supply system supplying air to moisture eliminator upstream is preferably imagined according to equipment of the present invention.
The air supply system supplying air to moisture eliminator upstream preferably imagines bypath system, wherein, first pipeline supplies the first part being directly supplied to moisture eliminator of total air upstream relative to the flow direction of trimeric cyanamide cake to be dried, and the downstream part of second pipe at moisture eliminator, the ingress at filtering element, be preferably close to the second section that the downstream part of strainer self supplies total air.
The moisture eliminator of the structure in not possessing of using the in the process according to the present invention surface that wet trimeric cyanamide can adhere to or be attached, place or region can imagine a kind of thin-slab construction, wherein, cover heating tube 21 by protection crown member 22, described protection crown member has the form being suitable for guaranteeing to promote and make subsequently product to be dried to advance.This form can be such as petal-shaped, the described petal-shaped region not having product and can adhere to or be attached, and avoids formation crust and crystal block substantially.
Utilize these solutions, avoid forming balky sclerderm because sclerderm self after coming off pulverizes and forming the glomeration of melamine crystals.
As previously mentioned, the follow-up correction step implemented can be included in suitable calibration devices or splitter according to technique of the present invention, wherein, warm air to be in from 120 DEG C to the temperature condition within the scope of 180 DEG C and the residence time from 5 minutes within the scope of 300 minutes, preferably from 20 minutes within the scope of 200 minutes, even more preferably from 40 minutes within the scope of 120 minutes.
Splitter/finisher can be the device be separated with moisture eliminator or the device become one with moisture eliminator self.
Heat by any type fluid or there is the power devices of resistance or other currently known methods any is implemented.
By can relative to the working direction of product in the same way or adverse current (preferably adverse current) the airflow that enters remove steam.
Especially, first the warm air heated by any currently known methods is sent to finishing area, for removing the degradation production of decomposes product, as long as there is the ammonia suppressing to decompose, described decomposes product is just present in trimeric cyanamide, then warm air is transported to arid region, for removing evaporated product.
Decomposition/calibration devices is rotary barrel preferably, described rotary barrel is equipped with: fin, described fin is used for being stirred by fall (refalling) again, described hot blast preferably passes through described cylindrical shell upstream relative to product, wherein, temperature is from the scope of 120 DEG C to 180 DEG C, and described temperature is suitable for removing the ammonia formed because decomposing decomposes product still existed.Leave decompose cylindrical shell air be subsequently used as moisture eliminator inside air supply and be used as water vapour remove air.
Described fin can have fixing or variable inclination angle, distributes better for making trimeric cyanamide.
Product remains in the state mixed with warm air by fin permission, guarantees maximum heat exchange, the residue decomposes Disassembling Products that may exist thus and removes formed ammonia simultaneously.
The dehumidification system keeping system of imagination the second decomposition/correction step keeps having superiority only with regard to drying stage, and in addition, permission product remains in next the shorter time section of high temperature in moisture eliminator, thus in any situation, guarantee that decomposes product decomposes completely.
Favourable especially according to technique of the present invention, because it guarantees higher-quality drying melamine, limit investment and production cost simultaneously.
In fact, greatly shorten time of drying and the residence time of product to be dried, its order of magnitude is several minutes, instead of current time of drying and the residence time producing a few hours required in the non-turbine contact drying device and non-flash contact drying device used in trimeric cyanamide process.
And utilize counter-flow air stream to implement according to optimal process of the present invention, allow to obtain other advantage from environment viewpoint, the ammonia which obviated in the trimeric cyanamide of the drying leaving moisture eliminator remains but also guarantees that the product of decomposes decomposes completely.
