Disclosed is a process for the integrated production of urea and melamine. A urea production zone produces a urea synthesis stream comprising urea, water and ammonium carbamate. This stream is subjected to processing, preferably involving stripping, so as to separate an aqueous urea stream from residual dissociated carbamate vapor comprising ammonia, carbon dioxide, and water. The urea is fed to a melamine synthesis zone and subjected to melamine forming conditions so as to form melamine and off-gas comprising carbon dioxide and ammonia. The dissociated carbamate vapor and the melamine off-gas are subjected to combined condensation so as to form a dilute melamine off-gas condensate.

In an integrated process for urea and melamine production, urea is produced in a urea plant (10) comprising a high pressure urea synthesis section (11) from which an aqueous solution comprising urea, ammonium carbamate and ammonia is obtained and a urea recovery section (21) operating at low pressure, and melamine is produced in a melamine plant (40) wherein off-gases resulting as by-products of the melamine synthesis are discharged from said plant at a medium pressure and recycled to the high-pressure urea synthesis section (11).
