Sulfuric Acid (50%) Price Trend 2025
In 2025, the price of 50% sulfuric acid continued to rise steadily in the global markets. In Asia, the Chinese market started the year with lower prices but then began to rise steadily. This was a result of the increasing price of sulfur. In India, there were small fluctuations in the early part of the year. Prices decreased slightly but then started to rise. This was a result of the increasing price of fertilizers and chemicals. In the third quarter of the year, the prices in China and India began to rise more strongly.
In Europe, the price of 50% sulfuric acid remained steady in the first half of the year owing to the consistent demand for the acid. In the middle of the year, there was a small oversupply, but then the price began to rise in the fourth quarter. This was due to the increase in sulfur prices globally and the increase in costs. In the United States, the price remained steady in the early part of the year but then began to rise in the latter half.

Sulfuric Acid Production from Iron Pyrite
This report presents the economics of sulphuric acid production from iron pyrite. In this industrial process, gas produced from the heating of iron pyrite (iron sulfide) is first treated to purify and isolate sulfur dioxide (SO2). This gas typically contains impurities that are removed to increase the efficiency of the subsequent steps. Once purified, the sulfur dioxide is then converted into sulfur trioxide (SO3) through a catalytic oxidation process. This conversion is typically facilitated by a catalyst such as vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) at high temperatures. The sulfur trioxide produced is a key intermediate used in the manufacture of sulfuric acid.
