ABSTRACT:
A process and system are set forth for improving an oxygen-enriched Claus process by introducing a sulfuric acid stream into the reaction furnace to moderate oxygen-induced high temperatures which allow oxygen-enrichment and attendant throughput in the Claus process to higher levels than heretobefore practiced.
