Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for producing carbamate including a urea production step; a carbamate-forming step; an ammonia separation step of absorbing the gas with water in the presence of carbonate to produce a gas absorption water, and separating ammonia; an aqueous alcohol solution separation step of separating an aqueous alcohol solution from the gas absorption water; an ammonia/carbon dioxide separation step of separating carbon dioxide gas from the aqueous ammonia solution in the gas absorption water from which the aqueous alcohol solution is separated; an aqueous ammonia solution reusing step of mixing the aqueous ammonia solution and carbonate with the water to be used for production of the gas absorption water.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A carbamate production system comprising: a urea production apparatus for producing urea by reaction between ammonia and carbon dioxide gas, a carbamate-forming reaction apparatus for producing carbamate by carbamate-forming reaction between amine, the urea, and alcohol, and by-producing a gas containing alcohol, ammonia, and carbon dioxide, an ammonia separation apparatus for absorbing the gas with water to produce a gas absorption water, and separating ammonia, an aqueous alcohol solution separation apparatus for separating the aqueous alcohol solution from the gas absorption water, an ammonia/carbon dioxide separation apparatus for separating carbon dioxide gas from the aqueous ammonia solution in the gas absorption water from which the aqueous alcohol solution is separated, an aqueous ammonia solution reusing apparatus for using the aqueous ammonia solution along with the water for production of the gas absorption water, an ammonia reusing apparatus for using, in the urea production apparatus, the ammonia separated in the ammonia separation apparatus and an alcohol reusing apparatus for separating alcohol from the aqueous alcohol solution and using the alcohol in the carbamate-forming reaction apparatus. 2. A carbamate production system comprising: a urea production apparatus for producing urea by reaction between ammonia and carbon dioxide gas, a carbamate-forming reaction apparatus for producing carbamate by carbamate-forming reaction between amine, the urea, and alcohol, and by-producing a gas containing alcohol, ammonia, and carbon dioxide, an ammonia separation apparatus for absorbing the gas with water to produce a gas absorption water, and separating ammonia, an aqueous alcohol solution separation apparatus for separating the aqueous alcohol solution from the gas absorption water, an ammonium carbonate reusing apparatus for using, in the urea production apparatus, the aqueous ammonium carbonate solution obtained by separating the aqueous alcohol solution from the gas absorption water, an ammonia reusing apparatus for using, in the urea production apparatus, the ammonia separated in the ammonia separation apparatus, and an alcohol reusing apparatus for separating alcohol from the aqueous alcohol solution and using the alcohol in the carbamate-forming reaction apparatus.
