Sintaclor burner

Production of ultra pure HCl by synthesis of Cl2 and H2 for chlor alkali

References : 

• > 600 units installed worldwide since 1960
• 9 million t HCl (100%) / year (accumulated contract awards of Cl2 burners)
• Mainly used with Cl2 and H2 coming from Chlorine Engineers Corp., THYSSENKRUPP UHDE, UHDENORA, ASAHI KASEI, INEOS, …

Production of ultra pure HBr by synthesis of Br2 and H2 for bromine industry

2017 new innovation

• Boost heat recovery to recover 800KWH per ton of burned chlorine
• Lower water consumption: reduce the cooling water consumption by 65%
• Select your end-products: 1-Hydrochloric acid (HCl liquid), 2-Hydrogen Chloride (HCl gas), 3- Both at the same
• Full range production capacity: perfect integration in your plant with a 5% turn-down ratio

• Capacity range: 2 to 180 t/d on 100% HCl basis
• Turn-down ratio: 5% (of nameplate capacity)
• Product acid concentration: up to 38% w/w
• Free Cl2 in product: < 1 ppm * H2 excess in combustion : typically 3-7%

Pluggable Add-Ons to existing Sintaclor (automate your Sintaclor, on-line combustion diagnostic, boost your HCl concentration)

SINTACLOR is the weapon of choice to obtain ultra pure HCl (< 1ppm free Cl2)

• Membranes for electrolysers require ultra pure HCl to maintain the lifetime of the membrane.
• Ultra pure HCl is need for Brine dechlorination (to remove free chlorine from the brine) and Brine treatment (for a final acidification of the brine before entering the electrolyser).
• Best available design with regards to safety and environment
