Small scale phosgene generator

Product Description

The small scale phosgene generation comes as a modular turnkey unit with a nameplate production capacity of 20 kg/h of gaseous phosgene, flexible to operate until ca. 5 kg/h depending on the demand of the phosgene consumer. The features of the bigger industrial units, such as the design philosophy of demand-driven dynamic production and hot stand-by capability, are maintained. Among the other characteristics, the safety concepts of double containment philosophy and automated measuring and control are adopted.
The reactor works with a slight excess of carbon monoxide over chlorine: both raw materials shall be fed to the unit by bottles on racks in client’s scope. The client shall also make available cooling water, electricity, air for instruments and purging to a safety absorption unit.
The footprint of the unit is approximately 6 m in length, 3 m in width, 2.5 m in height.

    Phosgene is a highly versatile molecule, used predominantly in the large scale isocyanates and polycarbonate production processes, and capillary in the synthesis of numerous specialties, fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals.The market increasingly demands small scale plants, an application area not previously covered by BUSS ChemTech, which instead has historically delivered several phosgene generators with nameplate capacities ranging from 200 to 12’500 kg/h.
    BUSS ChemTech, as the recognized technology leader, committed to fill this market gap and is presenting the small scale phosgene generator technology for the first time at the CPHI in Milano, Europe’s largest pharma event networking all the key players in the industry supply chain.
