ICC - Process Overview Text: <h6>Products</h6> <p><b>Sulfuric Acid</b>. Sulfuric Acid is one of the most widely used industrial chemicals, essential in fertilizer production, metal processing, and chemical manufacturing. It serves as a strong acid catalyst and dehydrating agent. Sulfuric acid is produced via the contact process, involving the oxidation of sulfur dioxide. It is typically stored in corrosion-resistant tanks and must be handled with caution due to its highly corrosive nature.</p> <p><b>Electricity</b>. Electricity is a versatile energy source utilized across various sectors, including manufacturing, transportation, and residential applications. It serves as the driving force for machinery, lighting, and electronic devices, and is increasingly employed in electrochemical processes and the production of hydrogen through electrolysis. Generated from renewable sources like wind, solar, and hydro, as well as fossil fuels and nuclear power, electricity plays a critical role in advancing sustainable energy solutions and enhancing efficiency in industrial operations.</p> <h6>Raw Material</h6> <p><b>Chemicals</b>. </p>
ICC - Process Schematic Image: //cdn.intratec.us/images/icc/process-schematics/089-D.jpg
ICC - Process Schematic Text: <p>The process under analysis comprises three major sections: (1) Reaction; (2) Electricity Generation; and (3) Off-gas treatment.</p><p>Reaction. The reaction occurs in three major steps: Initially, the hydrogen sulfide gas is incinerated in a burner, yielding sulfur dioxide (SO2) and water. Since it is necessary to remove oxides of nitrogen (NOx) in order to comply with environmental requirements, the sulfur dioxide-rich stream is fed to Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) reactor, in which NOx content reacts with ammonia to generate nitrogen and water. The NOx free sulfur dioxide gas is oxidized to sulfur trioxide (SO3) in the presence of a sulfuric acid catalyst. While this reaction is exothermic, there is intermediate cooling between stages, in order to favor the SO2/SO3 equilibrium. The effluent from the converter is cooled to a temperature that allows the reaction of sulfur trioxide with water, yielding Sulfuric Acid. The acid is condensed and concentrated by countercurrent contact with hot off-gas.</p><p>Electricity Generation. In this section, high-pressure steam generated throughout the reaction is transformed into low-pressure steam in a back-pressure turbine driving a generator, for electricity generation.</p><p>Off-gas treatment. Off-gas from sulfuric acid condensation upstream is passed through a scrubber, where residual sulfur dioxide is removed by a caustic wash. The cleaned gas is sent to atmosphere while weak acid solution is recovered.</p><p></p>
ICC - Short Description: This report presents the economics of recovering hydrogen sulfide gases to generate sulfuric acid in the United States. In this process hydrogen sulfide is initially burned, forming sulfur dioxide and water. The sulfur dioxide is then converted to sulfur trioxide, The sulfur trioxide reacts with the water previously generated and yields sulfuric acid.
