This process does not require washing and drying. In the presence of water vapor, sulfur dioxide is catalytically converted into sulfur trioxide and directly condensed into acid. It has the advantages of simple process, high sulfur recovery rate, high energy efficiency, no wastewater generation, large operational flexibility, low operating cost, and no pollution to the environment.
