Abstract

Fertilizer plants are most complex plants in the world (Rashid et al., 2013, Process Safety Progress) and its good opportunity to learn science from operations involved in these plants. Fluid mechanics and heat transfer operations combination involved in fertilizer complexes are explored in this article.

Keywords:

Fertilizer plants, Fertilizer complex, Fluid mechanics, Heat-transfer, Urea
