Abstract

Process and apparatus for the revamping of urea production plants for the synthesis of ammonia (NH3) and carbon dioxide, with a stripping section with NH3, in which the process carries out with differentiated yields, a majority reaction a) between highly pure reagents and a reaction b) between less pure substantially recycled reagents. According to the invention, the urea solution is now fed upstream the stripping section and a reactor with heat removal is utilized. Advantageously, the production capacity of the existing reactor is reduced, with respect to the projected one, in a quantity of 35% to 5%, preferably from 20% to 10%, in favor of the capacity of the 'once-through' reactor.
