摘要

The DuPont sulphuric acid plant in Burnside, Louisiana, in the USA is a large and versatile facility with a history of pioneering technology and world-class maintenance and operational practices. It is a 2,300 t/d plant capable of producing everything from standard industrial grades of acid to more specialised products like alkylation grade sulphuric acid, oleum and liquid SO3. Not only is its size and product slate impressive, but the site also has access to shipment via boat, rail and truck, making it a site of high strategic importance to DuPont.
