Small Chlorine Furnace | Design and Operational Points for Safely Handling Corrosive Gases
Safety design of a small chlorine furnace to reduce the risks of Cl2 and HCl leaks, corrosion, and contamination.
When handling corrosive and toxic gases such as Cl2 and HCl at high temperatures, the primary concern is whether it can be operated safely. In a small chlorine furnace, it is essential to have a safety design that not only allows chlorine gas to flow but also includes measures for preventing external leaks, corrosion in gas contact areas, discharge of unreacted gases, emergency shutdowns, and integration with scrubbers. Our small chlorine furnace is based on vacuum and reduced pressure operation, maintaining the internal pressure lower than atmospheric pressure to reduce the risk of Cl2/HCl leaks. Additionally, we can consider a configuration that makes it easier to manage operational risks, including corrosion measures for gas contact areas, gas detection, emergency shutdowns, purging procedures, and integration with detoxification equipment.

basic information
【Key Points of Safety Design】 ■ Vacuum and Reduced Pressure Operation - Maintain the internal pressure of the furnace lower than atmospheric pressure to reduce the risk of Cl2/HCl leakage outside the furnace. - Operate under negative pressure as a fundamental safety principle when using corrosive gases. ■ Corrosion Countermeasures for Gas Contact Areas - Consider the corrosion resistance of the furnace body, piping, and sealing areas that come into contact with Cl2/HCl. - Explore configurations that are less prone to corrosion even in high-temperature gas environments. - Design considerations can also accommodate CE, SEMI, and UL standard certifications. ■ Standardization of Operating Procedures - Organize procedures for startup, purging, gas introduction, processing, exhaust, and shutdown. - Manage flow rate, temperature, pressure, and residence time to ensure reproducibility and safety. ■ Safety Measures for Abnormal Conditions - Integration with gas detectors, emergency shut-off valves, and interlocks. - Scrubber integration considering unreacted Cl2/HCl and byproduct gases. - Fail-safe design that facilitates easy transition to a safe state during abnormal conditions. *Specifications will be proposed according to processing temperature, gas type, flow rate, pressure, and decontamination conditions.
