La fabrication de l'acide sulfurique utilise le procédé aux oxydes d’azote(procédé par chambres et par tours) ou le procédé de contact. Elle comprend deux phases successives : la préparation et l'épuration d’un mélange d’air et d’anhydride sulfureux SO2; l'oxydation de SO2 en SO3 à l'aide de vapeurs nitreuses ou de catalyseurs solides. 3, record 1, French, - proc%C3%A9d%C3%A9%20de%20contact
