Optimalisasi Proses Destruction Chlorate Di Dechlorate Reactor Dengan Variasi Rasio Mol Dan Temperatur
Chlor-alkali an industry that produced chemicals in the form of Caustic soda (NaOH). Caustic production at the chlor-alkali plant carried out by electrolysis process. During the electrolysis process there is the formation of a side reaction in the electrolyzer forming sodium chlorate (NaClO3) in the weak brine. Chlorate an undesirable substance because it can damage the resin in the ion exchanger, the membrane in the SRS (Sulphate Removal System), and reduce the efficiency of the electrolyzer cell. This study aims to determine the mole ratio of ClO3: HCl and the optimal temperature in the dechlorate reactor in minimizing excess (residual) HCl in the weak brine which affects the next process, namely NaOH consumption in the dechlorination process. From the results of the analysis that has been done, a mole ratio of 1: 6 and a temperature of 90 ℃ is better in reducing the chlorate content in weak brine by 1.88 g/L. While the excess HCl outlet of the dechlorate reactor is lower at a mole ratio of 1:6.5 and a temperature of 90℃ which is 7.6 g/L.
