Stamicarbon awarded process design package for mega-scale urea plant in China
MAIRE announced that NEXTCHEM (Sustainable Technology Solutions), through its subsidiary Stamicarbon, nitrogen technology licensor, has been selected by Qinghai Yuntianhua International Fertilizer Co., Ltd. to provide the process design package for the revamping of a dual-line urea plant in Qinghai Province, China, with a capacity of over 1,200 tpd each.
The proprietary MP Flash Design, part of the EVOLVE Energy series, allows to significantly lower steam utilization and optimize the use of feedstock, reducing the overall energy consumption of the plant by over 25%. In particular, the addition of a medium-pressure recirculation section enables the maximization of energy savings without any modification to the existing high-pressure equipment. This results in a significant decrease of the carbon footprint while generating savings in maintenance and operating expenses.
