    Strategic sourcing from multiple producers ensures uninterrupted supply

Manufacturing Process

1
Sulphur Combustion

Elemental sulphur is melted, filtered, and burned in dry air at 1000-1200°C to produce sulphur dioxide (SO₂)

2
Catalytic Oxidation

The SO₂ gas is passed over vanadium pentoxide (V₂O₅) catalyst beds at 420-450°C in a multi-pass converter. SO₂ is oxidised to SO₃ with 99.5%+ conversion efficiency

3
Gas Cooling

The SO₃ gas is cooled through a series of heat exchangers, generating high-pressure steam which is recovered for power generation

4
Absorption

The cooled SO₃ gas is passed through a packed absorption tower where it is absorbed in recirculating 98-99% sulphuric acid. The absorption heat is removed by external coolers

5
Oleum Production (Optional)

For oleum (fuming sulphuric acid), SO₃ is absorbed directly into sulphuric acid to achieve the desired free SO₃ content

6
Concentration Adjustment

The product acid is diluted or concentrated to the target strength (typically 98% w/w) by controlled water addition or blending

7
QC Testing

Each batch is tested for assay (titration), specific gravity, iron content, heavy metals, chloride, and colour

8
Storage & Dispatch

Stored in stainless-steel or lined carbon steel tanks. Dispatched in dedicated tankers, stainless-steel IBCs, or HDPE drums

Frequently Asked Questions

Standard concentration is 98% w/w. Also available: 96%, 93% (Battery Grade), 30-78% (various diluted grades), and Oleum (20-65% free SO₃).

Bulk tanker loads (20-28 MT), 35 kg HDPE carboys, 200 kg HDPE drums, and 1000 L IBCs. All containers are sulphuric-acid grade with proper venting.

Yes, Class 8 (Corrosive), UN 1830. Our shipments fully comply with ADR/IMDG/IATA regulations. Dedicated dangerous goods documentation provided.

Indefinite when stored in sealed containers away from moisture. Sulphuric acid is hygroscopic and will absorb water from the air if containers are left open.

Yes, FCC-grade sulphuric acid for food processing applications (pH adjustment, sugar refining). Full food-grade documentation provided.

Full PPE including acid-resistant gloves, face shield, rubber apron, and acid-resistant boots. Emergency eyewash and shower must be accessible. Always add acid to water, never water to acid.
