How is urea manufactured industrially?

It is through one reaction which releases heat and another which absorbs it that urea is synthesized in industry.Specifically, the first reaction involves ammonia and carbon dioxide. The energy release results in the formation of ammonium carbamante. The second reaction will break above-mentioned compound down into urea and water.


What is the role of a chemical engineer in a power plant?

Power generation plants typically require mechanical and electrical engineers as a majority of the workforce; however there are a few areas that a chemical engineer can get involved in. Any treatment processes within the plant, such as air, water, etc. can be done by a chemical engineer. If the power plant produces chemical wastes, such as tritium in a nuclear power plant, this isotope has to be removed in a process containing distillation columns and other chemical engineering processes, making chemical engineers ideal for this position. Some chemical engineers can work within risk assessment and can do work to determine risks within the plant and how best to prevent them.


Can H2S gas present in well water can be removed by degasifier?

possible depends on its concentration and vacuum degasifier conditions


How do you remove wax from crude oil?

Wax is not removed from crude oil until it reaches the refinery. Several processes allow for the removal of wax from crude oil. In many cases the wax is not removed at all, but sent as residue to be broken down thermally in a coking unit or visbreaking unit. Other options include solvent dewaxing which involves adding a large amount of solvent in a ratio of 3:1 to 12:1 to remove the wax in a heavier product known as pitch. Solvent dewaxing is a dated process, and today wax removal is more commonly accomplished by using a catalyst at high temperature and pressure to isomerize the waxy "paraffin" molecules into more usable products (isoparaffins). Isoparaffins have a better viscosity index than paraffin and are typically used as lubricating oils for engines, turbines, etc.


What is unstabilized naphtha?

Unstabalized naphtha (also known as light naphtha) consists of the light components of a crude oil distillation which have not yet had the C4 components removed from it. Unstabalized naphtha is fed to a tall distillation column (approximately 20-30 trays) known as a debutanizer where all C4 components (and any lighter boiling point components) are removed. The bottom product of a debutanizer is stabilized naphtha.

How waste water is removed from properties?

The wastewater is first treated using secondary treatment which includes biological treatment, filtering.


Does algae provide nitrogen?

Algae participates in a process called nitrogen fixation. In this process, Nitrogen (N2) is removed from the air and converted into ammonia (NH3). This process is especially important due to the need for ammonia in the biological process of biosynthesis.


How does removing ammonia from the process affect equilibrium?

it depends if the ammonia OS on the reactants or the products side. The equilibrium will shift toward whatever side the ammonia has been removed from (or away from whatever has been added), to balance the concentration of ammonia.


What is sedimentation process?

What work do they do at a sewage treatment plant?

Large items of waste are firstly removed from the sewage intake to prevent blockages throughout the cleaning process. Grit and smaller items are then removed using a filter, before chemical treatment is used to purify the water.


How does a ammonia purger work?

An ammonia purger removes air and noncondensables from the ammonia system by directing vapor from the condenser, where air collects, through cold liquid ammonia. This condenses the ammonia and separates noncondensables which are then removed from the system.


What are the recycling restrictions on plastic labels?

Generally there are no recycling restrictions on plastic labels. These labels are removed during the final cleaning stage of the recycling process by the secondary manufacturer.


How can N be removed from wastewater treatment?

Nitrobacter play an essential role in aquaponics. Nitrosomonas bacteria first convert ammonia into nitrites. Nitrobacter convert the nitrites into nitrates, which are readily absorbed by the plants. Read more at the link below.


What is tertiary treatment of waste water?

Around 85% of TSS, BOD, and some portion of phosphorus, heavy metal, and nitrogen from the wastewater is removed by secondary treatment. The third stage known as the tertiary treatment of the wastewater can remove the loads of phosphorous and nitrogen which is present in the water. They comprise processes like ion exchange, filtration, and absorption of activated carbon, nitrification, electrodialysis, and denitrification. In tertiary treatment, the options of treatment depend on the characteristics of effluent after the second treatment and the kind of water which is needed at the very end of the treatment. Like in the case of potable water, disinfection and filtration are to be done upon the wastewater. Filtration Process The process of filtration can take out the particulate matter by passing the water via the porous media. The process of filtration comprises several types of media which are mainly sand, charcoal, and gravel. There are mainly two types of filtration of sand, which are slow and rapid sand filtration. Membrane Process For treating a varied range of wastes that includes organic and inorganic matter, sewage, and water-soluble oil wastes, membrane technology is used. On the basis of the separation mechanism and driving force like Ultrafiltration (UF), Multi Filtration (MF), Reverse Osmosis (RO), Nanofiltration (NF), and Forward Osmosis (FO), the membrane processes are classified. Advanced Oxidation System For destroying the microorganisms in the process and degrading the organic pollutant, ozone is introduced. By passing the oxygen via a high voltage electric field, Ozone gas (O3) is formed. Presently, ozone is used widely as a disinfectant after chlorine.
