Main raw and auxiliary materials supply

Introduction to the preparation of potassium sulfate production plant by Mannheim method

Raw material for producing potassium sulfate

The raw material for the preparation of potassium sulfate by the Mannheim method is potassium chloride (KCL) which has K2O ≥ 60% and 98% sulfuric acid.In the production process, the hydrochloric acid system is made into tap water, and the heat required for the reaction is provided by natural gas combustion.

Basic principle and process flow of potassium sulfate production

A fixed bed metathesis reaction method is employed. The solid potassium chloride and 98% sulfuric acid are continuously added to the reaction chamber at a certain ratio of feed, and the reaction is carried out under the condition of pushing the homogenate at a high temperature above 500 ° C (generally controlled at 500-530 ° C). . The raw material is continuously input under the condition of maintaining the normal bed surface, and the finished potassium sulfate is continuously discharged into the finished pusher from the outlet of the reaction chamber (symmetric two places), and enters the finished product through the gas seal conveyor under the action of cooling and stirring and pulverizing. The belt machine is then lifted, crushed, and finished with a scraper into the finished silo. The hydrogen chloride gas generated in the reaction is absorbed into water to prepare a hydrochloric acid and charged into a storage tank. Exhaust gas is discharged into the atmosphere in accordance with national emission standards.
