The invention discloses a
nitric acid absorption
tower and an absorption process thereof, and belongs to the technical field of
nitric acid production. The
nitric acid absorption
tower comprises an absorption unit, a washing unit and a
recovery unit, a plurality of absorption structures are arranged in an absorption box of the absorption unit in a
linear array mode, and the absorption structures are used for spraying and absorbing
nitric oxide to form nitric acid; the washing unit is located above the absorption unit, a plurality of
gas mixing structures distributed in a
linear array mode are arranged in the washing box, and the
gas mixing structures are used for mixing air and nitric acid and washing the nitric acid; the recycling unit is arranged between the washing unit and the absorption unit, the washing unit is connected with the recycling unit through an
exhaust pipe arranged on the upper portion of the washing unit, and the recycling unit is connected with the absorption box through a gas return
pipe and sends recycled gas into the absorption box. By adopting the nitric acid absorption
tower and the absorption process thereof, the problems of low
nitric oxide conversion rate and low nitric
acid concentration of the existing absorption tower can be solved.
