Abstract: A process for the production of high-purity melamine by pyrolysis of urea at high pressure, wherein the liquid phase output from the pyrolysis reactor is sent to a downstream post-reactor, and wherein the anhydrous gaseous phase from the pyrolysis reactor and from the post-reactor are subjected to washing with molten urea for the recovery of the melamine. The purified liquid exiting the post-reactor is treated in a quenching column, in order to eliminate polycondensates, while the quenching column output is cooled. A high purity melamine is then separated by crystallization from a mother liquor, the greater part of which is recycled to the quenching column, thereby enabling a costless recovery of ammonia and melamine. The remaining mother liquor is treated for the separation of oxidized products of pyrolysis and is then sent back to the quenching column, thereby realizing the complete recovery of the melamine.

Abstract: The process to recover both melamine and oxyaminotriazines (OAT) from the mother liquors of melamine crystallisation comprising the following steps: a) addition to a melamine and OAT containing aqueous solution at high temperature of an alkaline agent until the solution pH reach a value equal or higher than 11; b) most of melamine crystallisation by solution cooling; c) separation and recovery of precipitated melamine; d) acidification of the obtained solution, after precipitated melamine separation, in order to reach a pH of about 7; e) the suspension obtained in d) above after precipitated melamine recovery, is subject to filtration according to tangential filtration technique obtaining a clear permeate which contains as a solution all melamine which did not precipitate in step b) and a retentate comprising of OAT dispersion; f) OAT deprived mother liquors from e) are recycled to row melamine solution preparation step; in such a way almost the total amount of melamine, which did not precipitate in step b),
