NH3 - anhydrous (Rated as: good idea!) |
||||||
Sometimes the chemist would love to have some ammonia gas in its anhydrous form available in his laboratory without being forced to buy a gascylinder full of this compound which has gotten an somehow evil smell (it always was bad smelling of course) because of its inflationary use in the manufacture of methamphetamine from pseudoephedrine containing pills. How to produce this compound quick and easy and - anhydrous? The best method known to me by now was posted by lugh long time ago and used CaO and NH4Cl to free the ammonia from its salt. Drawback here is that water is formed in the reaction and an additional drying tower with CaO/NaOh is required for to get the ammonia almost anhydrous, another drawback is that CaO is not everywhere easily available, probably because of its properties in dissoving cadavers quick and complete. As I got interested in this ammonia lately - NO! Not for reductive amination purposes, but for use as fertilizer thats understood - I searched a lil´ bit and found this: 3CH4N2O + heat = C3H3N3O3 + 3NH3 Urea + heat = cyanuric acid + ammonia Preparation of cyanuric acid:

Generator setup uses | ||||||
May I ask what type of setup is to be used. Is a drying tower still necessary. What about a precooler would a regular spiral condenser suffice as a precooler. |

As told this produces ammonia without water... | ||||||
As told this produces ammonia without water (dry/dried urea is understood - dry it just below the docomposition temperature... ). As told the ammonia will be pretty hot though free from water. A iron or SS tube-spiral through icewater will suffice as precooler - a standard spriral glasscooler fed with icewater will suffice if the amount of ammonia is not to large. No copper, no brass but plain old iron/mild steel is perfectly ok here. Your question is not to answer universally as cooling depends on the amounts processed, heat transfer capability, temperature difference...and, and, and... hope this helps nevertheless. so near, so far...... |

boom! | ||||||
now thats bucket chem if i ever did see it... You need to be sure of whats in it totally to see what you will get out and possible side rxns which may occur, as org said, you may just end up as wallpaper on the crumbled remains of your house via your method. Any ammonium salt can be used with a base to produce ammonia gas. Just be certain of the salts % contents if your using fert to see what may/will happen. -AC Its just my opinion, but no-one listens to me anyway, and rightly so... |

Huhu! Jemand zuhause? Ammonia anhydrous. | ||||||
Huhu! Jemand zuhause? Ammonia anhydrous. If you add LYE to ammonium nitrate you dont get anhydrous ammonia without extensive drying. If you add NaOH you will have problems in getting an mixture homogenous enough to prevent thermal decomposition - if this is possible at all. Anhydrous, anhydrous, anhydrous - fuck did anybody read the subject of the thread? Eh - yes, lets try again: Dis anybody UNDERSTAND the subject? And NaOH and lye are not interchangeable, arnt they? Oh this hurts. so near, so far...... |

my fault | ||||||
My fault - I didn't think about it, just thought some water would be necessary to get them to react... (of course drying is necessary when H2O is added) If you add NaOH you will have problems in getting an mixture homogenous enough to prevent thermal decomposition - if this is possible at all I don't think it is possible. Anyway, if Quantum meant mixing solid NaOH with solid fertilizer - I don't think it will react at any appreciable rate at all, even more unlikely that an explosion will occur. To get NH3(g) from solid fertilizer with the aid of NaOH, water has to be present... And if the fertilizer consists of urea, simple heating should suffice of course, like you said... ![]() Greetz A Pleased to meet you hope you get my name. But whats puzzlin you is the nature of my game! |

q | ||||||
Just to ask a question, What is cyanuric acid useful for? But the method is great, urea is dirt cheap and rather safe when compared to other methods of production, and if the urea is sufficiently dried then yes it would be an excellent way to get anhy ammonia for a dirt cheap basement door price!!! ![]() -AC Its just my opinion, but no-one listens to me anyway, and rightly so... |

Trichloroisocyanuric acid is used in 99-100% conc. as a swimming pool chemical I bee-lieve, I have seen it listed for sale at many pool shops online. Kids, say NO to the DEA! |

Yup, and it's very cheap - sold by the kilo... Why bother with making it yourself? Doesn't seem worth the work!? (just curious about the intention behind it) Greetz A Pleased to meet you hope you get my name. But whats puzzlin you is the nature of my game! |

doublethink | ||||||
Uhm, well - you're completely right. Since the topic came up I wanted to throw in something useful. On second thought it seems futile to try and synth TCCA. OTOH maybe the urea to cyanuric acid patents are interesting in respect to the topic of this thread (I don't know). --psyloxy-- |

no problem | ||||||
In case you thought so: I didn't want to flame you - it was really pure interest... Of course the patents about converting urea to cyanuric are quite interesting, seen in connection with this thread! ![]() I just imagined on the one hand {all those solvents used, much work and cleaning up afterwards} vs. {walk-in and buy some kilos for some few bucks without any questions} OTOH ![]() Greetz A Pleased to meet you hope you get my name.

ahem? | ||||||
Why bother with making it yourself? (in ref to tcca)Its not the main focus of what we want.... in org original post: Urea + heat = cyanuric acid + ammonia And the thread title: NH3 - anhydrous So the cyanuric acid is just another product of the heating to get out anhy ammonia.... were not interested in it at all... (in this thread anyway) Infact the talk about cyanuric was started by foolish me when i asked what it was used for..... whoops! off topic! So is there any further comment on org's method for anhy ammonia? -AC Its just my opinion, but no-one listens to me anyway, and rightly so... |
