Maximum amount of liquid sulfur trioxide that can be produced by the sulfur-based sulfuric acid production system
Thread Content
The condition is a 100,000 tons/year sulfur-based sulfuric acid production system
Is it to produce 100,000 tons of 98% sulfuric acid? Based on this calculation, if all the converted sulfur trioxide is converted into liquid sulfur trioxide, the maximum amount that can be produced is 80,000 tons.
There is a difference between what is theoretically possible and what can be achieved in practice
The answer is not professional enough! Is 80/98=0.81? It’s not that simple. Even without taking into account the effects of system level balance issues, just in terms of the absorption efficiency of the nicotinic acid tower, it is not possible to capture all of the sulfur trioxide that is generated; 50-60% of it can possibly be captured and condensed. The amount of liquid sulfur trioxide that can be produced is 0.5*0.8=0.4, which means 40,000 tons per year is the maximum amount that can be achieved. That’s too much to say.
That’s right, it should be like that.
