Abstract:
A process is described for recovering chlorine and cyanuric acid values from aqueous solutions containing a chlorinated s-triazine compound selected from the group consisting of polychloroisocyanuric acids, alkali metal salts thereof and mixtures thereof. The aqueous solution of chlorinated s-triazine compound is reacted with a mineral acid to form chlorine and cyanuric acid. An inert gas is preferably passed simultaneously through the aqueous solution to remove chlorine as it forms. The chlorine-depleted aqueous slurry containing solid cyanuric acid is separated, for example, by filtration to recover cyanuric acid. The resulting solids-free mother liquor, which contains some dissolved cyanuric acid is contacted with an adsorbent, such as activated carbon, which adsorbs the cyanuric acid from the liquid. The liquid, substantially free of chlorine and cyanuric acid values, is conveyed to waste. Cyanuric acid adhering to the adsorbent is removed from the adsorbent with an alkali metal hydroxide or carbonate solution. Recovered cyanuric acid values may be used in the preparation of additional polychloroisocyanuric acid or alkali metal salts thereof.
Abstract:
Polychloroisocyanuric acids are produced by the reaction of monoalkali metal cyanurate with hypochlorous acid and a chlorinecontaining compound selected from the group consisting of chlorine and chlorine octahydrate where the molar ratio of chlorine-containing compound to monoalkali metal cyanurate is at least 1:1. Where an excess of chlorine-containing compound is used, this excess is employed to remove any gaseous by-products such as nitrogen trichloride, which may be formed during the reaction. This excess containing gaseous by-products is reacted with an alkali metal compound to convert the chlorine present to an alkali metal hypochlorite, which is further reaction to form hypochlorous acid. The hypochlorous acid can be used in the chlorination reaction. Reaction conditions include a temperature range of from -5* to 45*C. and a pH of 3 to 4.5.

An inert gas is preferably passed simultaneously through the aqueous solution to remove chlorine as it forms. The chlorine-depleted aqueous slurry containing solid cyanuric acid is reacted in a neutralization step with an alkali metal compound to precipitate an alkali metal cyanurate, which is separated, for example, by filtration. The solid alkali metal cyanurate may be used in the preparation of additional polychloroisocyanuric acid or alkali metal salt thereof. The resulting solids-free liquid, which contains some dissolved alkali metal cyanurate is contacted with an adsorbent, such as activated carbon, which adsorbs the cyanurate from the liquid, and the resulting liquid, substantially free of chlorine and cyanuric acid values, is conveyed to waste. Alkali metal cyanurate adhering to the adsorbent is removed from the adsorbent with an alkali metal hydroxide or carbonate solution and recycled to the neutralization step.
