FIELD: industrial inorganic synthesis.
SUBSTANCE: aqueous carbamate solution leaving urea recovery section at a certain temperature is decomposed by indirect heat exchange with flowing heat carrier having specified temperature. Temperature difference between aqueous carbamate solution and heat carrier is thus decreased to a value not exceeding 70°C, preferably to a value within a range of 20-40°C. Aqueous carbamate solution, prior to be fed into decomposition apparatus, is preheated in heat exchanger by stream produced in evaporation zone containing ammonia and carbon dioxide in vapor phase.
EFFECT: increased efficiency of apparatuses designed for decomposition of recycled carbamate solution.
