    摘要: Disclosed is a process system and a process for converting the sulfur-containing flue gas into the sulfuric acid. The process system comprises: a flue gas preheater, which for preheating the sulfur-containing flue gas to 15˜30° C. above its dew point, and the flue gas preheater has a glass tube as a heat exchange tube; a flue gas fan for boosting the pressure of the preheated acid process gas and transporting one part of which to a combustion furnace, and the other part of which to a process gas steam heater; a sulfuric acid steam condenser for condensing SO3 generated by the combined reactor into sulfuric acid. The device of the present invention can resist the fluctuation of SO2 concentration in the feed gas, and can realize considerable economic benefits and rational utilization of energy.

    摘要: A process for production of elemental sulfur from a feedstock gas including from 15% to 100 vol % H2S and a stream of sulfuric acid, the process including: a) providing a Claus reaction furnace feed stream substoichiometric oxygen with respect to the Claus reaction, b) directing to a reaction furnace zone operating at elevated temperature such as above 900° C., c) directing to a sulfuric acid evaporation zone downstream said reaction furnace zone, d) cooling to provide a cooled Claus converter feed gas, e) directing to contact a material catalytically active in the Claus reaction, f) withdrawing a Claus tail gas and elemental sulfur, g) directing to a Claus tail gas treatment plant, with the associated benefit of a process involving injection of sulfuric acid in a sulfuric acid evaporation zone allowing high temperature combustion of said feedstock gas, including impurities, without cooling from evaporation and decomposition of sulfuric acid.

    摘要: A process for preparing sulfuric acid may involve oxidizing sulfur to sulfur dioxide by way of dried air in a first oxidation stage. The sulfur dioxide may then be oxidized to sulfur trioxide in a second oxidation stage. The sulfur trioxide may be absorbed by sulfuric acid in at least one absorption stage. Further, heated sulfuric acid may be drawn off from the absorption stage and used for generating steam. Process gas from an intermediate absorption stage may be recycled to the second oxidation stage and, in some cases, a final absorption stage after the process gas flows through the second oxidation stage.
