Method for avoiding the corrosion of the strippers in the urea manufacturing plants

摘要

A method for passivating the surface of the strippers of the urea plants, where the temperatures are very high, where the pressures range from 120 to 240 Kg/cm.sup.2 and where the effluent process flow from the synthesis reactor undergoes one or more falling-film evaporations, preferably in countercurrent with a driving gas consisting of NH.sub.3 or CO.sub.2, characterized by the fact that the passivation is carried out by means of a sinergistic combination of oxygen, preferably injected into the bottom of at least one stripper, and of a second passivating agent, preferably injected into the process flow entering the head of at least one stripper, wherein said second passivating agent is injected in the liquid state or as a liquid solution, before or contemporaneously to the start of the evaporation.
