Oleum Production By Contact Process
Production Cost Report | Chemicals
Details: Germany - based plant Q2 2024 | From $ USD
This report proffers the thorough economics of oleum production by contact process. The preparation process is initiated by the oxidation of sulfur, which results in the formation of sulfur dioxide. Sulfur dioxide is again treated with oxygen in the presence of a catalyst, such as vanadium pentoxide that yields sulfur trioxide as an intermediate. The reaction is further carried by treating the intermediate with water resulting in sulfuric acid, as a resultant. Finally, the resultant is dissolved in sulfur trioxide and leads to the production of oleum or fuming sulfuric acid as the end product.
Top Producers of Oleum
- Sumitomo Chemical
- Shandong Xingda Chemical
- Pingmei Shenma
- PQ Corporation
- Tongling Chemical Industry
Feedstock for Oleum
Oleum, or fuming sulfuric acid, is an acidic chemical prepared by using sulfur and oxygen as its primary feedstock. The procurement of oleum is mainly dependent upon factors including the preparation and processing cost of oleum and its raw materials (including sulfur and oxygen), along with its market prices, logistics, etc. Moreover, other prominent factors, such as governmental policies, financial and economic conditions, trade and transportation activities, demand in the downstream industries (petrochemical and pharmaceutical industries), along the supply chain stability, altogether govern its procurement process worldwide.
