Abstract
In a process in which a urea synthesis effluent obtained by reacting ammonia with carbon dioxide is subjected to a stripping step of bringing the urea synthesis effluent into countercurrent contact with carbon dioxide under heating to obtain an aqueous urea solution containing a small amount of ammonia and ammonium carbamate, the improvement comprises first bringing the urea synthesis effluent is into contact with a separated gas evolved in the stripping step under adiabatic conditions or with a little cooling. The use of the above process enables a reduction in size of the stripper and a recovery of the high pressure steam without keeping the ammonia to carbon dioxide molar ratio lower than that of the conventional method.
