Calculation of the catalyst loading in a sulfuric acid converter – 20 points reward

This post was last edited by Pfz2867 on 2012-1-2 at 08:40. RT, what parameters should be used for the calculation?
The catalyst loading amount in the heat exchanger is zero; there’s no need to bother with any calculations.
The OP’s typo and the reply above are a perfect match!
Generally, it’s calculated based on empirical values, with appropriate adjustments made
It should be: Calculation of the catalyst loading amount in a sulfuric acid converter. 20 points as a reward
We load at a rate of 300L per ton of acid per day, with a distribution ratio of 23%, 23%, 25%, and 29%
We have a ratio of 350L/ton of acid per day: 19%, 20%, 21%, 19%, 21%
We have a five-stage conversion: the total amount of catalyst is calculated at 300 liters per ton of acid. Among them, S101 accounts for 60% and S108 accounts for 40%. The upper part of Section 1 is fitted with 200-mm-high S108; Sections 4 and 5 are also fitted with S108, while the rest is fitted with S101.
Refer to page 536 of “Sulfuric Acid Production Technology”. Based on the designed production capacity, calculate the required amount, and make appropriate adjustments according to experience
Those above have packed a lot. We use a five-stage conversion process, with 270 L of acid per ton per day; the proportions are 21%, 20%, 20%, 20%, and 19%.
In the process of acid production from smelting flue gas, the tail gas concentration reaches 400 mg/m³, and the loading capacity amounts to 360–380 L/t·d
