Extraction of zinc from zinc sulfideoccurs in three sections
• Roaster and acid plant• Leaching and purification plant • Cell house

Sulphuric acid plant
There are four main process criteria.• Gas drying and water balance• Energy (heat) balance.• Conversion of SO2 to SO3 .
• required O2/SO2 ratio

Physical properties of acid
• It is colourless,water white ,viscous liquid,with MP 10 C,BP 280 C.
• It may be mixed with water in any proportion.• Density increases with increase in
concentration at fixed temperature.• Physical properties will depend on SO3
concentration.

Chemical properties
• Sulphuric acid is chemically and thermally very stable.
• Known hydrates are H2SO4 x H2O,H2SO4 x2H2O, and H2SO4 x 6H2O .
• Pure sulphuric acid is dissociated to only a small extent in accordance with equations .
2 H2SO4 = H3SO4+ + HSO4
-
2H2SO4 = H3O+ + HS2O7-
