Utilization of Ammelide (By-Product from Guanidine Nitrate Production).

Abstract

By-product solids from the manufacture of guanidine nitrate by the Pittsburg Coke Process, comprising 48% ammelide, 24% ammeline, 23% melamine, and 5% inorganic salts, can be disposed of by (1) making them available to melamine producers, (2) making them available to cyanuric acid producers, (3) conversion to cyanuric acid for sale, or (4) hydrolysis to ammonia and carbon dioxide. The relative merits of each route are discussed briefly.
