    Abstract: 1,051,100. Nitrogen tetraoxide. ALLIED CHEMICAL CORPORATION. Aug. 14, 1964 [Aug. 15, 1963], No. 33301/64. Heading C1A. A process for the production of nitrogen tetraoxide from oxidation gases obtained by the combustion of gases containing combined nitrogen (e.g. ammonia) and containing free N 2 , O 2 , NO, NO 2 and water vapour, without net formation of HNO 3 , comprising cooling a stream of the oxidation gases by contact with HNO 3 of concentration 50-68% and so simultaneously reducing the water vapour content of the gas and increasing its content of NO 2 , and subsequently separating nitrogen tetraoxide from the gas by nitric acid absorption and purifying it, wherein the amount of HNO 3 employed to cool the stream of oxidation gas is so regulated that the amount decomposed in this step is at least substantially equal to the amount produced in subsequent steps. One embodiment of the process comprises (1) contacting the oxidation gas with the HNO 3 in a reactor cooler zone under a pressure of at most 1À75 kg./cm. 2 and at 32-45‹ C. to remove water vapour and increase the NO 2 content while producing dil HNO 3 , (2) subjecting the resulting gases to a pressure of at least 4À5 kg./cm. 2 and at 20-80‹ C. to oxidize NO to NO 2 by O 2 in the gas stream while producing concentrated HNO 3 , (3) absorbing NO 2 from gas stream by countercurrent scrubbing with 85-95% HNO 3 producing a NO 2 -HNO 3 concentrate and a gas stream comprising O 2 , N 2 and small amount of nitrogen oxides and HNO 3 , (4) scrubbing gas stream with water to remove nitrogen oxides and producing a dilute HNO 3 and a waste stream of N 2 and O 2 , (5) distilling NO 2 from the concentrate and condensing it as N 2 O 4 , (6) returning HNO 3 distillation residue to (3); (7) concentrating di] HNO 3 from (1) and (4) to 50-68% HNO 3 for use in (1); (8) returning concentrated HNO 3 from (7) and remaining HNO 3 produced during the process to (1), this HNO 3 is then contacted with the oxidation gases and there is no net production of HNO 3 . Referring to the figure, ammonia is oxidized in 4 and gases pass to reactor cooler 11 where water vapour content is reduced to less than 2% by weight by contact with HNO 3 , the gas is then compressed and passed to reactor condenser 23 where NO + H 2 O # HNO 3 , remaining gases pass to oxidizer 37 where NO + O 2 # NO 2 the NO 2 being absorbed in 41 by contact with 85-95% HNO 3 to form NO 2 -HNO 3 concentrate which is distilled in 69 to NO 2 which is condensed in 87, residual NO is oxidized in 106 and N 2 O 4 product is removed via 111; dil HNO 3 from 11 and 23 is concentrated in 126 and recycled to 11, concentrated HNO 3 from 71 is recycled to 41.
