HCL SINTACLOR

Sintaclor® anti corrosion system for HCL manufacturing with tail tower in Graphilor® and piping in Armylor®

With over 600 references in operations throughout the world, Sintaclor® - the Mersen HCl synthesis unit – is acknowledged as a proven solution.

The HCl Sintaclor® system is composed of:

• One compact integrated synthesis unit that performs the combustion, the absorption and the cooling.
• One packed tail tower that scrubs the residual gas and releases clean vent gas into the atmosphere.
  

The synthesis unit and the tail tower are manufactured in Graphilor® 3, while piping is made of Armylor®.

Mersen is able to provide HCl Sintaclor in a turnkey skid with all the pre-assembled items.

Key features:

• Temperature resistance up to 430°C through the use of Graphilor®3 XC (ultra-fine grain graphite with carbon impregnation)
• Top-mounted burner with internal liquid protection that allows a smaller size of furnace
• Bottom-mounted safety disc to have a better control of effluent in case of breakage
• Automated plant
• Special burner design
• Performed production of hydrochloric and quantities varying from 1.4 to 150t of 100% HCl per day
• HCl concentration: up to 37%
• Free chlorine content: less than 1ppm
• Total combustion of chlorine gas with low hydrogen

Customer benefits:
