Abstract

AbstractEnergy requirements for individual operations in the continuous caustic soda refining process are discussed. The electrical power requirements for the process are determined basically by the throughput rate which fixes centrifuge motor sizes. The electrical power requirements are not subject to significant reduction without a basic change in the process. However, the steam usage may be reduced by as much as 75% by proper heat‐recovery methods. The selection of process streams for most effective heat recovery is discussed.
