Hexamine (Gas Phase Process)

Introduction

Hexamine is a heterocyclic organic compound with the formula (CH2)6N4. It has a cage-like structure similar to adamantine. It is useful in the synthesis of other chemical compounds, e.g. plastics, pharmaceuticals, rubber additives. Hexamine is mainly used in the production of powdery or liquid preparations of phenolic resins and phenolic resin moulding compounds, where it is added as a hardening component. These products are used as binders, e.g. in brake and clutch linings, abrasive products, non-woven textiles, formed parts produced by moulding processes, and fireproof materials. Also hexamine is widely applied in other fields like medicine, histological stains, solid fuel, food additive, organic synthesis chemistry, pesticide, dynamite and so on.

SL-TECH employs Gas-Phase Process, which is featured in feedstocks being charged in the form of gas instead of liquid. On one hand, it enables much less water to be introduced; on the other, the inert gases contained in the formaldehyde feedstock helps to carry off the produced water. As a result, the concentration and crystallization goes more easily with a very small amount of steam. And waste water will be discharged from this plant in a small volume.

Technical Features

● The investment of gas phase process is much lower than. For 5000TPA, gas phase process only needs one production line.

● The waste water is less than that of the Liquid phase process. The reason is that Liquid phase process need absorb water then dewater to produce hexamine.

● Gas phase process is continuous production operated by DCS system, so less operators are needed.
