About Sulfuric Acid:
Sulfuric Acid, a colourless liquid, is a well-known mineral acid consisting of elements such as sulphur, oxygen and hydrogen. It is an odourless liquid that is viscous in nature and miscible in water. It is synthesized in extreme exothermic reactions. It has strong acidic nature and it readily absorbs water vapour from the air. It finds wide range of applications in chemical industry such as its use as an electrolyte in lead-acid batteries.
Chemical Formula:
- H2SO4
Synonyms:
- 7664-93-9
- Sulfuric acid
- Oil of vitriol
Molecular Weight:
- 98.08 g/mol
Industrial Uses:
- Fertilisers
- Production of chemicals
- Sulphur–iodine cycle
- Oil refining
- Wastewater processing
- Industrial cleaning agent

Production Processes:
- Production of Sulfuric Acid from Sulphur via Single Contact Process, via Double Contact Process, via Wet Sulfuric Acid Process, from Tail Gas Using H2O2 Abatement
In order to produce Sulfuric Acid via Single Contact Process, sulphur is burned to produce sulphur dioxide, followed by its conversion to sulphur trioxide via oxidation. The obtained sulphur trioxide is transformed into Sulfuric Acid by absorption with recirculating Sulfuric acid solution in water in just one column.
Procurement Resource also provides the production cost analysis of Sulfuric Acid.
