Urea Mixing & Production Skids
Industrial urea production typically relies on the Bosch-Meiser process, a method where synthetic ammonia (NH₃) reacts with carbon dioxide (CO2) under intense heat and pressure to create ammonium carbamate, which is then dehydrated into urea.
For facilities looking to bypass the high cost of shipping liquid weight, RM Technologies Urea Mixing and Production Skids offer a sophisticated turnkey solution. By purchasing solid urea prill and mixing on-site, operations can create high-purity aqueous solutions—such as 32.5% DEF or 50% industrial urea—while significantly reducing freight expenses.
The Production Process
Our skids utilize a high-shear agitation tank to blend solid urea with demineralized water. A critical challenge in this process is the chemistry of the mix itself: the dissolution of urea is a powerful endothermic reaction. This causes the liquid temperature to plummet during mixing.
To counteract this, RM Technologies skids are engineered with integrated steam or electric heat exchangers. These units maintain the solution temperature safely above its crystallization point, ensuring the urea remains in liquid form throughout the cycle.
Precision & Reliability
To ensure your SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) or industrial process receives a consistent reagent, these systems are fully automated. We incorporate high-precision hardware to guarantee quality:
- Density Meters: For exact concentration monitoring.
- Conductivity Sensors: To maintain purity standards.
- Automated Controls: To streamline the mixing cycle and ensure a reliable, cost-effective supply.
Key Advantage: By shifting from liquid deliveries to on-site prill mixing, your facility gains greater control over reagent purity and a significant reduction in long-term logistics costs.
