What causes the high water content in liquid ammonia?
Thread Content
The refined liquid ammonia produced by the acidic water treatment system has a high water content
Try controlling the tower top temperature to be a bit lower
Leak in the ammonia liquid cooler! The liquid separation tank before the ammonia compressor does not remove liquid effectively, and the temperature of the ammonia entering the tank is too high ； Internal leakage in the steam purge valve on the liquid ammonia transport pipeline ； That’s all I can think of for now; hope it helps!
The tertiary cooling effect is poor; the side-line extraction point is too low, resulting in an excessive extraction volume!

Appropriately reduce the extraction volume, keep the temperature of the refining section low, and enhance liquid discharge. Leakage inside the ammonia cooler is also possible
