Sulfuric acid manufacture : analysis, control and optimization
By some measure the most widely produced chemical in the world today, sulfuric acid has an extraordinary range of modern uses including phosphate fertilizer production, explosives, glue, wood preservative and lead-acid batteries. An exceptionally corrosive and dangerous acid, production of sulfuric...
