The plant is designed for the production of Dry HCL-Gas by the process of Azeotropic distillation of 30% Hydrochloric Acid Solution. The pre – heated [optional] feed i.e. 30% Hydrochloric Acid Solution generally heated by the bottom overflow effluent (20% Hydrochloric Acid) and fed to distillation column by a pump whereby the rate of feed flow is controlled. The feed is heated through a shell and tube type thermo-siphon re-boiler where the heat energy is supplied by steam. The Bottom product (effluent) is a 20% HCL- solution, which gets cooled by cold 30% HCL-solution prior to discharge for storage. The top product HCL-Gas is dried in the Drying unit using a dehydrating agent. The moisture content in the gas is expected to be ≤ 0.01% depending on the efficacy of dehydrating agents.The plant has been designed to operate as a continuous process and is the system is quite stable as all the wetted parts are from Borosilicate 3.3 Glass and PTFE and Impervious Graphite.Salient Features : Operational reliability. Available in wide range capacities – from 10kg to 100kg/hr of dry HCL. Except commercial hydrochloric acid, no other raw-material is required. The spent acid about 21% HCL usually finds use for captive consumption. Capable of operating from 25-100%. Ease of installation. Negligible pressure drop.
