Abstract: The process of the present invention which produces the flexible integration for the production of ammonia and urea uses adiabatic reforming of the carbonaceous feedstock such as natural gas. With adiabatic reforming of natural gas, a surplus of carbon dioxide is produced. With adiabatic reforming, substantially pure oxygen and nitrogen may be used which does not involve inert gases such as argon in the system. More importantly, adibatic reforming allows operation at much higher pressure than standard primary reforming, namely, between 700 and 3000 psig. When these pressures are used, the process includes a recycle of the methane and hydrogen from the ammonia synthesis loop to the adiabatic reformer.The process of the present invention uniquely removes the carbon dioxide which is produced by the reforming of the carbonaceous feedstock and treatment by the watergas shift reaction in two independent stages.
