Proposal description
title of the proposal Design and development of Oleum and Sulphuric Acid
Manufacturing Plant having double absorption system
utilizing the existing single absorption-based plant.
3) Finally,
the third concern is that all these gases passes through an
absorption column to absorb SO3 in sulphuric
acid solution. Since it contains a mixture of gases therefore
the proper absorption is not possible.
Therefore, the unabsorbed gases end up into the
atmosphere.
solutions
1) Increasing the concentration of the oxygen in an air feed
in order to expand the sulphur burning. The high
concentration of oxygen means that there will be less
nitrogen in a gas feed. The rate of burning will improve and
also the volume percent of SO2 in a gaseous mixture will be
much higher when a normal air is used for combustion. The
catalyst bed in a catalytic converter will have more chance of
interaction with SO2. We believe that overall more SO3 will
be formed when high concentration of oxygen is used for
combustion
