The catalytic converter for conversion of SO2 to SO3 by contact process should have a feed with SO2 content between___________________?

Correct answer: B. 7-10 %

  • A. 2-5 %
  • B. 7-10 %
  • C. 12-15 %
  • D. 20-25 %

Explanation

The contact process commonly uses a gas feed containing about 7–10% SO2, with oxygen and nitrogen making up most of the remainder. Higher SO2 concentrations can create heat-removal and equilibrium limitations in the converter.
