Spent Sulphuric Acid

Spent Acid is generated in the process of Manufacturing LABSA 90% . The concentration of Spent Acid produced is approximately  75% to 77 %  H2SO4.  

 

Application:

  • Synthetic detergent industries in formulation of Washing powder, Detergent powder, Detergent cake, Liquid Soap, Cleaning powder, Scouring Bar, Oil soaps etc.
  • Spent Acid is mainly used for manufacture of various fertilizers like SSP (Single Super Phosphate), DCP (Di Calcium Phosphate)
  • It is used in manufacturing of various Industrial Chemicals like Alum (Ferrous Sulphate) & Dyes & Pigments
  • It is also used in neutralizing Alkaline effluent in the E.T.P. Plants of Textile Processing Industries for re-cycling of water
  • It is also used in extraction of Lignin precipitate from the Black Liquor generated in processing of pulp of paper
