Reason being that since sulphuric acid is heavier than water it will move to the bottom due to gravity and the mixing will be much uniferm. In case we add water to sulphuric acid, since the water is lighter than sulphuric acid, it will stay at the top, Hence, we will have water in the top layer and sulphuric acid in the bottom layer. At the Interface the sulphuric acié will absorb water and release heat, This released heat will evaporate a fraction of water near the interface. It will convert it into steam. The steam will expand and the mixture will be splashed everywhere in an exploding fashion. ‘Almost all the sulphuric acid around the world is manufactured by Contact Process. PU " Raw Materials used in Contact Process Sulphuric acid is made up of Sulphur, Oxygen and Hydragen. So naturally the sources which are ric in these elemental compositions are chosen for the task of production of Sulphuric Acid, The raw materials used can be elemental sulphur by Itself or Sulphur Dioxide or Pyrite. Also, air and water are used. Sulphur can be found from mines, Sulphur and Sulphur Dioxide can be found from stack gases which are obtained from coal or oil industries. Sulphur or Hydrogen Sulphide can be obtained from petroleum desulphurisation. Sulphur dioxide ean be ‘obtained from smelting of metal silicide ores or it can be isolated from pyrite.

Second step is catalytic exidation of sulphur dioxide to sulphur trioxide, Third step s hydration of sulphur trioxide to form Sulphutle Acie : Production of Sulpur Dioxide Gas The sulphur obtained from any kind of source Is burned to form sulphur dioxide (928. Care is to be taken in this step so that the air supplied for combustion process 's dry. Any traces of water present will result In the formation of acid and cause corrosion within the combustion equipment. Also if the sulphur contains carbonaceous impurities then it has to be filtered. Ifthe gas is not filtered for the Impurities then they will be carried over through the equipments and if they reach catalysts then they will tend to deactivate it. The oxidation of sulphur to sulphur dioxide Is a highly ireversiale process.

The oxidation of sulphur dioxide to sulphur trloxide Is a reversible process, The pressure is maintained at 1.2-1,5 atm and temperature at 410-430°C, If the temperature rises above 430°C then the equilibrium is displaced away from Sulphur Trioxide, hence itis very important that operating temperature should be ‘maintained in this range. Commonly the catalytic reactor is designed as a four stage bed reactor. When the gas is passed to one catalyst bed it's temperature rises from the range of 410-430%C to about 600°C hence after each stage the gas has to be cooled to the optimum temperature again before passing it to the next stage Stage 2: Produce sulphur trioxide gas, SOs zs ‘Concent of sulphur sulphide fo sulphur Won, 80: “nipsr outa win arose Segen ae sas emugh 3 converte eis essed oer vanes) oie, Vi0s(clyst at "450.

Double Absorption helps in ensuring that more of sulphur dioxide is converted to sulphur trioxide and also overall doing this is beneficial for the process also in terms of purity.

This specific range Is 98-99%, If this concentration happers to be on lower side then sulphur trioxide is not properly absorbed and forms a troublesome mist, Ifthe concentration happens to be on the higher side then vapours become very significant inside the tower. Hence it is important to maintain @ good operation concentration. The resulting acid strength can be adjusted by controlling the flow rates of sulphur trioxide and water.
