Paraformaldehyde

Paraformaldehyde manufactured from aqueous formaldehyde solution and it is a mixture of poly-oxy-methylene glycols containing from 8 to 100 formaldehyde units per molecule.

paraformaldehyde

PFA is used in the agrochemical sector (glyphosates are the intermediate compounds which account for more than 50% of the global PFA consumption) and in the resin industries (melamine, urea, phenolic resins)

Eurotecnica can provide an advanced and proven process, which features:

Final product with high reactivity, high solubility, low ash content and low insolubles;
The lowest raw materials consumption: nearly theoretical FA consumption;
Lowest amount of lean formaldehyde solution;
Optimal production flexibility: plant can be run at less than 30% rate;
High reliability throughout the yearly operation period;
No need to stop the whole plant in case maintenance is required;
Highly automated and easy to operate;
FA-containing gases scrubbed with water before venting: less than 25 mg/Nm3 solids in exhaust;
