Producing acid from 60,000 tons of pyrite

2008-01-15View Original

What is the total investment required for producing acid from 60,000 tons of pyrite, including all equipment, civil works, and instrumentation? The sulfur content in the ore is 10% :)

It is **not allowed to build plants for producing acid from 60,000 tons of pyrite**, as the sulfur content in the ore is 10%, which is too low to be used in sulfuric acid production.

Is the sulfur content in the ore 10%? Just kidding.
Reply #42008-01-15
The ore contains 10% sulfur, and it is not up to standard even for use in a processing plant; let alone for the production of sulfuric acid.

Is there a mistake? Where is pyrite with 10% sulfur content produced?
Reply #62008-01-17
Acid production from pyrite with a capacity of less than 100,000 tons is **restricted** and does not comply with industrial policies.

Where are you from, OP? Here, 13% of the minerals are considered to have no value for extraction. I mean, just how much waste will be generated from the extraction and processing process? I don’t understand

The mine contains 10% sulfur – how can it be burned? How does a furnace achieve self-thermal equilibrium?

10% sulfur content is indeed too low. What’s the iron content? It’s unclear whether it’s for producing sulfuric acid or for iron smelting

10% is definitely not enough, unless sulfur is mixed in for combustion.

It’s likely that sulfur was mixed in with the fuel. Although it’s **not allowed for levels below 100,000, it’s still acceptable in some places**

To produce acid from 60,000 tons of pyrite, what is the total investment required for the complete set of equipment, civil works, and instrumentation? The sulfur content in the ore is 10%. Where are you from? If you have time, feel free to get in touch via QQ: 7181493

A 10% sulfur-containing boiling furnace cannot achieve self-heat balance; sulfur can be added. Plants with a capacity of 60,000 tons have been built in small-scale operations, so it’s sufficient to aim for a capacity of 100,000 tons in the feasibility study
