Method for Concentration of Diluted Sulfuric Acid and Concentration Equipment for Concentration of Diluted Sulfuric Acid

摘要

A method for concentrating dilute sulfuric acid involves feeding dilute sulfuric acid through at least two electrolytic cells depolarized by sulfur dioxide, and through a cation conductive membrane separating the cathode and anode sides in the electrolytic cell. Also provided is an apparatus for concentrating sulfuric acid, wherein at least a first electrolytic cell is in fluid communication with a second electrolytic cell, and wherein a cation conductive membrane separates the cathode and anode sides in the electrolytic cells.
