The invention discloses a process for preparing concentrated
sulfuric acid from industrial
sulfur-containing
tail gas. The process comprises the following steps: introducing the
sulfur-containing
tail gas and air into a converter; carrying out a
catalytic oxidation reaction under the action of a catalyst in order to convert
sulfur-containing compounds such as H2S, Sx, COS and SO2 in the
tail gas into SO3, CO2 and H2O; recovering heat through a residual heat recovering
system, and introducing the SO3, the CO2 and the H2O into an acid
tower; performing
heat transfer by cooling water countercurrent contact, wherein concentrated
sulfuric acid being 98 percent or above in percentage by
mass can be prepared after condensation of
sulfuric acid in a
gas phase; the concentration of the sulfuric acid can be further increased by steam stripping of a
stream of dry hot air in the acid
tower; the temperature of the inlet of the converter is 350 to 500 DEG C; the temperature of the outlet is 400 to 600 DEG C; the operation pressure of the converter is -20 to 300kPaG; the
operating temperature of the acid
tower is 60 to 250 DEG C; the operating pressure of the acid tower is -20 to 300kPaG. The process can be widely applied to treatment of sulfur-containing tail gas produced in
coal chemical industrial enterprises,
petroleum enterprise and the like, and the sulfur-containing compounds in the tail gas are converted into the concentrated sulfuric acid.
