Reconciliation of chemical element balances in the process for manufacturing nitric acid by using a data validation algorithm
A validation algorithm was used for reconcilation of the chem. element balances in the com. process for manufg. HNO3 by oxidn. of NH3. The operational prodn. parameters (NH3 content in the NH3-air mixt., NH3 consumption, NH3 conversion degree, NO2 emission) were recalcd. by using the reconciliced results of measurements. No substantial discrepancies between the calcd. and measured data were obsd.
