Electronic version of the book can be downloaded here: http://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-13140-1-2.htmlNH3•H2O = NH3 + H2O — 34.79 KJ/mol
(NH4)2CO3 = 2NH3 + CO2 + H2O — 99.1 KJ/mol
Na2S + 2NH4Cl = 2NaCl + 2NH4+ + H2S
NH4Cl + NaHCO3 = NaCl + NH3↑ + CO2↑ + H2O
(NH4)2SO4 + 2NaHCO3 = Na2SO4 + 2NH3↑ + 2CO2↑ + 2H2O
2NH4Cl + Ca(OH)2 = CaCl2 + 2NH3(g) + H2O — 44.1 KJ/mol
(NH4)2SO4 + Ca(OH)2 = CaSO4 + 2NH3 + 2H2O — 74.55 KJ/mol

Preheating stage:
NH3·H2O → NH3 + H2O
(NH4)2CO3 → 2NH3 + H2O + CO2
NH4HCO3 → 2NH3 + H2O + CO2
Reactions involving NaHCO3 and Na2CO3 dissolved in the filtrate:
NaHCO3 + NH4Cl → NaCl + NH3 + H2O + CO2
Na2CO3 + 2NH4Cl → 2NaCl + 2NH3 + H2O + CO2
Reactions occurring in the mixing tank and during distillation in the lime milk section:
Ca(OH)2 + 2NH4Cl → CaCl2 + 2NH3 + 2H2O
Ca(OH)2 + CO2 → CaCO3 + H2O
Preheating stage:
NH3·H2O → NH3 + H2O
(NH4)2CO3 → 2NH3 + H2O + CO2
NH4HCO3 → 2NH3 + H2O + CO2
Reactions involving NaHCO3 and Na2CO3 dissolved in the filtrate:
NaHCO3 + NH4Cl → NaCl + NH3 + H2O + CO2
Na2CO3 + 2NH4Cl → 2NaCl + 2NH3 + H2O + CO2
Reactions occurring in the mixing tank and during distillation in the lime milk section:
Ca(OH)2 + 2NH4Cl → CaCl2 + 2NH3 + 2H2O
Ca(OH)2 + CO2 → CaCO3 + H2O
