  • Publication number: 20260159389
    Abstract: Methods and systems for producing sulfuric acid and/or sulfur trioxide, which may include contacting a first stream that includes oxygen and a second stream that includes sulfur to produce a third stream that includes sulfur dioxide, and subjecting the third stream to an oxidation reaction to produce a fourth stream that includes sulfur trioxide. The contacting of the first and second streams may include contacting a molar amount of oxygen that exceeds a molar amount of sulfur. The methods also may include separating the fourth stream into a fifth stream that includes gaseous sulfur trioxide, oxygen, or a combination thereof, and a sixth stream that includes liquid sulfur trioxide. The fifth stream may be recycled.
