USE OF INDUSTRIAL WATER INSTEAD OF CHEMICALLY PURIFYED WATER IN THE PROCESS OF WASHING RETURN GAS

The current trend is to reduce energy consumption in order to reduce production costs. In article dis-cusses a way to reduce the consumption of expensive chemically purified water (CPW) by replacing it with industrial water. In the production of butyl alcohols, the removal of ammonia from the raw recycle gas is carried out in an absorber column using CPW as an absorbent, which comes from a thermal power station. As a result of research, it was proposed to use industrial water as an absorbent. A test run was carried out, which confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed solution
