Abstract

Melamine is continuously prepared from urea or its thermal decomposition products in the presence of minimal quantities of ammonia by providing a continuously flowing stream comprising ammonia gas at a temperature above 425 DEG C. under a pressure of at least 750 p.s.i.; preheating as feed material urea or it's thermal decomposition products to a temperature above its melting point but below its decomposition point; continuously introducing a flow of preheated molten feed into the heated pressurised ammonia stream under a pressure of at least 750 p.s.i.; controlling the rates of flow of feed and gas such that the combined flows have a temperature of from at least 425 DEG C. to 550 DEG C., thereby forming a mixture comprising melamine and ammonia vapours; thereafter introducing at least one additional flow of preheated molten feed into said combined flow; controlling the temperature of said combined flow and the rate and temperature of each said additional flow such that a temperature of 425-550 DEG C. is maintained at all times; adjusting the rate and number of said additional flows such that the rate of said combined flow is sufficient to retain the reaction products in suspension; continuously withdrawing ammonia gas and melamine, and recovering melamine therefrom. Specified starting materials, other than urea, are biuret, triuret, cyanic acid and ammonium cyanate.
