Description
This dataset represents sulfuric acid production from copper-smelting off-gas. Sulfur-dioxide-bearing smelting gas is converted to sulfuric acid through gas cleaning, drying, catalytic conversion, and absorption. The dataset includes the main raw and auxiliary materials, energy inputs, air emissions, and water emissions of the production process; infrastructure such as production-equipment manufacture and plant construction is outside the dataset boundary. The inventory combines data from multiple sources and was optimized and modeled using the best information available for 2022.
