NITRIC ACID PRODUCTION AND RECYCLE

摘要

An improved process for either the manufacturing of nitric acid, recycling nitric acid, or recovering of nitric acid, comprising the steps of: providing a source of NOx; reacting one mole NO from the source of NOx with one mole of HNO3 in the presence of NO2- to produce a resulting product; and reacting the resulting product with one mole of O2 and one mole of H2O to produce two moles of nitric acid.
