2.1. CA plant

2.1.1. Salt storage and handling


Raw salt will be received at site by trucks. Salt will be unloaded into the salt unloading hoppers. Salt
from unloading hoppers will be transferred to salt storage through belt conveyor. Salt is fed to
saturation pit where salt is dissolved using lean brine having a concentration of app. 205 gpl.

2.1.2. Primary brine system


The CA Plant has a total cell-room production capacity of 768.8 MTPD NaOH 100% as 32% solution.
The primary brine system is designed to produce polished brine containing less than 0.5 ppm of
suspended solids.
For satisfactory operation of membrane cell electrolyzer, ultra pure brine is a must. The primary brine
system comprise of the following system: brine saturation, brine precipitation and Na2CO3 preparation,
brine clarification, brine filtration (anthracite media), brine polishing

2.1.3. Secondary brine purification


In order to warrant trouble-free operation of the membrane cells and a long service life of the
membranes, the cells must be supplied with extremely pure brine. The calcium and magnesium
content in the brine is not allow to exceed a maximum level, which is less than 20 ppb, as the
deposition of these ions in the membrane affects its function and leads to an increased power
consumption. Such low contents can be achieved in a proven technology by using ion exchange
columns.

The columns are filled with a cation exchange resin, with a very high selectivity for calcium,
magnesium and strontium cations. The ion exchange resin absorbs calcium and magnesium ions
present in the brine. Ion exchange nozzles ensure the resin remain in the columns.

2.1.4. Brine dechlorination


The considerable amount of chlorine remaining dissolved in the anolyte, which requires dechloination
unit before the lean brine can be recycled to the saturator. The dechlorination is carried out in two
process steps. The first step is a Cl2 desorption under vacuum. In the second step the remaining free
chlorine in the brine is chemically destroyed by means of sodium bisulphite(NaHSO3).
Bisulphite solution is added in slight excess to ensure that no Cl2 escapes.

2.1.5. Chlorate Decomposition


Electrochemical side reactions in the cell generate the chlorates. As the electrolyte recirculates, a
chlorate decomposition unit is required to prevent the accumulation of NaClO3. This unit forms mainly
chlorine from the chlorate and hydrochloric acid reaction.

2.1.6. Sulphate removal


Amount of sulphates in brine keeps on accumulating and if not reduced then exceeds the maximum
limit for the safe operation of the membrane plant. So part stream from the lean brine pump is sent to
lean brine cooler where lean brine entering cools down and lean brine leaving the Nano filtration unit

gets heated from lean brine cooler.


Brine enters a series of filter for removal of suspended particles. First filter is activated carbon filter and
second one is lean brine filter. After filtration brine goes to the filter feed tank from where brine goes to
sulphate removal system. The reject stream from the unit is then sent to gypsum precipitation tank
where sulphate is converted into gypsum by addition of calcium chloride from CaCl2 tank. The gypsum
thus formed is transferred to gypsum filter by gypsum filter pump. The filtered gypsum is transferred to
B.L.
The permeate lean brine from the sulphate removal system and filtrate from gypsum unit is sent back
to brine saturators.

2.1.7. Cell room and electrolysis


The cell room is designed to produce 768.8 MTPD NaOH 100% as 32% solution and chlorine using 8
electrolyzers containing 171 bipolar cell elements each +21 spare each,.

The electrolyzers normally operate at a load of 16.32KA or 6kA/m2 to produce 768.8 MTPD NaOH
100% as 32% solution. The bipolar cells are capable of very fast load changes, which are only limited
by maintaining a stable chlorine and hydrogen pressure.
Pure brine having a concentration of 300-310gpl flows into the electrolyzer cells

Each electrolyzer cells have two chambers. The anode chamber and cathode chambers of the cell are
isolated from each other by the membrane. Cl2 is liberated at the anode surface and flow to the
anolyte header with depleted brine.
H2 is liberated at the cathode surface and flow to catholyte header with 32% NAOH

2.1.8. Chlorine treatment


In order to improve the heat balance of the electrolysis process, the energy of chlorine from
electrolyzers is recovered first against the brine system, then cooling water and finally chilled water.

Chlorine leaving the cells is about 88℃ and about 200mbar and is saturated with water vapor.
The chlorine gas is passed through chlorine recuperator(E12103) where it exchanges heat with
polished brine.
Chlorine is cooled down whereas polished brine is heated. Chlorine gas at about 65℃ then passes
through Chlorine cooler I(E12104) where it is cooled to 45℃ using cooling water.
The gas leaving cooler I is further cooled to 15℃ in chlorine cooler II (E12105) using chilled water.

Protection of membranes against too low chlorine pressure is achieved by under pressure safety
vessel (D12101), which is connected to chlorine waste air header.
The control valve relieving the excess chlorine pressure to waste gas dechlorination is located
between coolers I and II.
Temperature controller on the outlet of CL2 gas stream from chlorine cooler II controls the chilling
water flow to the cooler.

The gas leaving the cooler II is then passed through the wet chlorine filter (F12101) to remove the
entrained brine aerosol.
Demineralized water is continuously added to the inlet stream to flush away any salt crystals that may
have deposited on the surface of the filter candles and may increase pressure drop.

Part of the stream emerging from wet chlorine filter is withdrawn and sent to HCL synthesis unit as per
requirement.

The moist chlorine gas coming from the wet chlorine filter is dried in chlorine drying tower by means of
98% sulphuric acid to meet final moisture content of about 10ppm wt%. The chlorine leaving the drying
tower flows to the chlorine compressor via a dry chlorine filter to remove entrained H2SO4 droplets.

2.1.9. Chlorine compression


Dry Cl2 gas from dry chlorine filter enters suction side of Cl2 compressor at around 1.02bar(a) and
15℃ and is compressed to about 5 bar(a) and 45℃ in a three stage chlorine compression unit.
After every compression stage, the compressed chlorine is cooled to prevent excessive outlet gas
temperature by chilled water. The compressed chlorine is transferred to EDC plant.

2.1.10. Waste gas dechlorination


The waste gas dechlorination unit serves as a safety system and removes chlorine and traces of HCl
from the waste gases drawn from various parts of the plant. All chlorine bearing waste streams from
the plant are led to the waste gas dechlorination system, where it is rendered free of chlorine in three
stages by absorbing the chlorine in caustic soda solution. The absorption leads to the formation of
sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl).
The first two stages are designed with an ejector each whereas the third stage consists of a final
absorber.
The bleaching lye produced by the waste gas unit is collected in the bleaching lye tanks.
It is then pumped to anolyte system by bleaching lye pumps.Here, NaOCL can be decomposed with
HCL to NaCL and Chlorine. Chlorine will be recovered back into the chlorine system.

2.1.11. Cell work shop


A cell work shop meets the requirements to assemble and dissemble the cell elements and for all
manipulations necessary in the cell room

2.1.12. Rectifier transformer system


Required amount of electricity at required voltage is supplied to the electrolyzers through transformer-
rectifier.
Each electrolyzer is connected to one rectifier. Two rectifiers are connected to one transformer.
Switches are provided for isolation of each electrolyzer.
Thus there are 8 rectifiers and 4 transformers.

2.1.13 Polarization Rectifier


Each electrolyzer is supplied with a polarization rectifier, connected to the bus bars between switches.
The polarization rectifier feeds a small amount of current to the electrolyzer to prevent damage to
cathode coating in presence of chlorine.
Such situation arises especially in case of shutdown. A diode prevents reverse current flow into the
rectifier when the main rectifier is running.

2.1.14 Caustic concentration/ Storage tank


The caustic concentration unit is designed to handle 768.8 MTPD NaOH100% as 32% solution
production from electrolyzer.

32% caustic leaves the electrolyzer through an overflow pipe into the Catholyte Header along with
hydrogen.
Separation of H2 and Catholyte takes place in the Catholyte Header
The Catholyte (32% NaOH) flows under gravity at approx. 88°C to the Catholyte Tank and transferred
to the caustic concentration unit
32% caustic soda is concentrated to 50% in the caustic evaporation package unit by steam produced
in the H2 boiler system.

This unit is based on an optimization of investment and operation costs considering the following
aspects;
•Using heat recuperation of vapour, product and steam condensate to lower the steam consumtion.
•Capacity of quick capacity changes.
•Using special materials to increase corrosion resistance of those parts in contact with caustic soda.

The caustic soda at 50% by wt. of concentration is received from the concentration unit and stored in
the NaOH 50% day tank (TK13301 A/B) with a volume of 1100m3 each.
The tank is located within a dike, designed to hold the content of the tank.

Safety interlocks are provided to stop the feed into tank upon high liquid level and to stop transfer
pumps on low level signal.

From TK 13301A/B, 50% caustic is pumped to the NaOH bulk storage tank (TK35001) with a volume
of 19000m3.

2.1.15 Hydrogen treatment


The hydrogen cooling system is designed to handle a hydrogen load corresponding to 768 MTPD
caustic soda (100%) production from electrolyzer.
The system consists of the treatment section, where cooling and filtering of the gas is done, a
condensate collection system and the hydrogen stack. Hydrogen gas leaving the cells is at a pressure

of about 220 mbarg and a temperature of about 88℃. The gas is saturated with water vapors at these
condition and is cooled to around 45℃ by cooling water in the hydrogen cooler, where most of water
vapor condenses. The cooled gas is passed through hydrogen filter to remove mist and NaOH
aerosols. Most of hydrogen gas feed to the boiler system as a fuel and a part of the gas to the HCl
synthesis unit as per requirement.

2.1.16 HCl synthesis and storage


This unit is designed for the production of 86MTPD of HCl 100% as 32% solution. The HCl synthesis
system consists of HCl synthesis unit with scrubber column and two HCl storage tanks with transfer
pumps.

2.1.17 Waste water treatment (neutralization)


Waste water from process buildings are collected in pits / sumps in various process areas and pumped
via pit pumps or routed via trenches to the waste water pits for chemical treatment.
The waste water unit is designed to treat process effluents from the plant and to send them after PH
adjustment and free chlorine removal to outside for disposal.

2.2 EDC plant

The process plant consists of 3 units.


 Direct chlorination unit,
 EDC purification,
 EDC drying and waste water stripping.
2.2.1 Direct chlorination
Chlorine reacts with ethylene directly to make ethylene dichloride.

The reaction is carried out in a recycle reactor which consists of the U-shaped reaction loop and the
EDC vapors drum which is installed on top of the reaction loop.
Reaction takes places in the upper part of the loop’s riser.

In this process the required chlorine is drawn into the reactor with the ejector J21001 which is operated
with a driving stream of circulation EDC. The ejector is designed in a way to ensure that the required
chlorine flow is brought into the system at partial load conditions that means with reduced driving
stream.

Ethylene is dissolved physically in EDC in the lower part of the riser section of the reaction loop
R21001. Even at partial load conditions the difference in density between the riser and the down
comer section of the reaction loop ensures a constant flow of the reaction medium.

2.2.2 EDC distillation


In order to achieve sales grade EDC quality, reduction of byproducts formed by side reactions in the
direct chlorination process is required. To remove these components, which mainly consist of high

this leak test does neither replace the pressure test stipulated by the technical supervision authorities
nor the pressure test to be performed during erection.
A leak test shall be performed always after the system has been dismantled on hydrostatic pressure
test (e.g. removal of blinds, installation of safety valves or opening of machines for inspection) and is
part of the commissioning.
The leakage test can only be performed in a completely erected unit (with installed electrical
equipment and instrumentation).
Before putting into service the chlorine system should finally be tested in order to guarantee perfect
leak tightness.

The following general instruction should be followed:


 The unit to be tested is to be isolated from other units. However, for this purpose it is not sufficient
just to close the shutoff valves. The equipment is slightly pressurized to detect major leaks up to
max. Pressure of 0.5 bar g for gaseous media and normal operating pressure for liquid media.

 All flange connections (e.g. connections between pipes and equipment, instrumentation) are
covered with a suitable leak detection solution.

 In the first step the system to be checked is brought to a pressure of approx. 0.5 bar g by means of
nitrogen.

 Leakage can be detected by formation of bubbles in the leak detection solution (soap or special
spray) and must be eliminated.

 If the stuffing boxes of valves are leaky, care shall be taken to ensure that the valves may be
operated easily even after tightening the stuffing boxes.

 If no further leaks are detected, the unit remains pressurized over several hours. The pressure
drop is recorded taking into account possible temperature differences.

 Before bolts at the graphite equipment are tightened see the instructions of the manufacturer and
use a torque wrench.

 If liquid is used for leak testing, in the second step, the pressure is slowly increased up to the
operating pressure of the system to be checked and all connections are checked for leakage.

 When pressurising with gaseous agents leaks can be detected by application of a leak detection
solution

 During pressurising and depressurising it must be ensured that no damages occur to internals.

 The gas velocity must not exceed that of normal operation inside of packing materials.

 After completion of tests, no vacuum (e.g. heat exchanger) is allowed to occur.

Sufficient breathing has to be ensured.

7.8 Drying out / inerting of lines and equipments

All process systems shall be dried in accordance with the project specification dew point. The activity
will be done by systems and by the individual equipment items. Dry-out will be done using dry air
supplied by 100% oil free air compressors and dryer packages.

All process systems shall be purged in accordance with the project specification. The activity will be
done by systems and by individual equipment items. Inerting will be done by using the project nitrogen
system or temporary nitrogen system to comprise a liquid nitrogen tank, nitrogen vaporizers and
heating equipment capable of producing gaseous nitrogen heated to the required temperature.

To assure proper dry-out and inerting, all ball, globe and gate valves shall be manipulated to
open/closed position several times to displace any free water. Butterfly valves shall be thoroughly
dried while being left in full open position.

All bypass line shall be dried and purged. To assure bypass line dried out,block valves in main line
should first be blocked or throttled to allow flows through the bypass line. When the bypasses are dried
and purged, the block valves in the main line should be opened wide.
Also all safety relief valve line, branch line and tubing for instrument shall be dried and purged. The
dry-out and inerting procedure will be carefully planned and sequenced so that a minimum amount of
air and nitrogen will be required to dry and inerting the overall piping and equipment effectively the
procedures, marked-up drawings and work schedules for dry-out and purge shall be subject to the
SAMAPCO’s approval.

Dry-out and purge/inerting works shall be performed prior to introduction of the hydrocarbon product,
and the dried and purged condition should be maintained thereafter. Dry-out and inerting for pipelines,
equipment and facilities shall be executed by dry air and nitrogen gas until reaching the target dew
point and oxygen limit.
Once the facilities are dried out and purged, the facilities shall remain in a condition such that positive
pressure of nitrogen is supplied to inhibit the entrance of foreign matter into previously purged systems.
Pressures on these completed systems should be monitored on a regular schedule to assure that a
positive inert pressure is being maintained.

The chlorine system downstream of the drying tower must be thoroughly dried. To dry the system the
chlorine compressors are started alternately and input air/ nitrogen is sucked through the drying tower
and blown through the entire system purging the air out at the EDC plant.

Special care is to be taken that all dead spaces and dead pipe sections are likewise dried. If this
cannot be accomplished dry instrument air should be fed in.
If there is a risk of water having accumulated in dead spaces of valves, fittings and other items of
equipment of the dry chlorine section, the latter are to be opened, dismantled as far as necessary and
then dried. Dry compressed air or nitrogen should be used for drying larger equipment.

In the EDC Plant all systems in contact with fluids containing traces of HCl have to be dried out before
the initial start up or after any shutdown in which there is a chance that the equipment has become wet,
all equipment must be thoroughly dried out because the simultaneous presence of water and HCl will
cause rapid corrosion.
The water content in the system has to be lowered to a value < 20 ppm wt. to avoid any corrosion.

 The first step in drying out the equipment is to drain all equipment and lines at the lowest point and
blow out all the vessels and lines with plant air to eliminate pools of water.

 The second step is to replace possible air in the system by nitrogen and the oxygen content has to
be checked.

 The oxygen content must be below 0.5 % by vol. before EDC can be introduced.

For drying EDC resistant hoses must be available.
