Sulfuric Anhydride Production by the Contact Process
Production Cost Report | Chemicals
Details: Germany - based plant Q2 2024 | From $ USD
This report provides an extensive cost evaluation of sulfuric anhydride production by the contact process. The process is initiated by the oxidation of sulfur obtained from coal. It is oxidized to produce sulfur dioxide, which is again oxidized on heating in the presence of a catalyst, such as vanadium oxide. The reaction leads to the oxidation of sulfur dioxide and results in the formation of sulfur trioxide, which is also known as sulfuric anhydride as the final product.

Feedstocks for Sulfuric Anhydride
Sulfuric anhydride or sulfur trioxide is a chemical oxide of sulfur and is prepared by using sulfur and oxygen as its major feedstocks. The procurement of sulfuric anhydride is dependent upon factors such as the availability of its feedstocks (including coal, sulfur, oxygen, etc., for sulfur trioxide or sulfuric anhydride), the production cost of sulfuric anhydride along with its feedstocks (including sulfur and oxygen), logistics and transportation activities, etc. Moreover, other factors such as its demand in the chemical industry (as an oxide of sulfur), market prices, extraction cost of coal (feedstock for sulfur production), stability in the supply chain, trade, and governmental policies have a major impact on its procurement process.
