On the treatment of waste acid from acetic acid plants
Thread Content
Some manufacturers sell the waste acid from acetic acid production facilities; are there any better methods for treating this waste acid that could generate benefits? Is it possible to continue with evaporation distillation? Please discuss it.
A large amount of waste sulfuric acid is recovered; it is recovered, concentrated, purified, and reused, with environmental benefits generally outweighing economic benefits. Logically, acetic acid can also be recycled, but I haven’t really heard much about that.
