Abrégé

The present invention is a sulfuric acid production apparatus provided with: a conduit 41 through which a starting material comprising at least a sulfur component is supplied; a conduit 45 through which a first cooling medium is introduced; a combustion furnace 51 in which the starting material is combusted to produce a combustion gas containing a sulfur oxide; a waste heat boiler 52 in which the combustion gas is cooled by the heat exchange with the temperature-risen first cooling medium; a converter 61 in which the sulfur oxide is oxidized with a catalyst to produce a reaction gas comprising sulfur trioxide and water; a cooling device 62 in which the reaction gas is cooled by the heat exchange with a second cooling medium; a dilute sulfuric acid column 71 in which sulfur trioxide and water contained in the cooled reaction gas are absorbed by an aqueous sulfuric acid solution to produce dilute sulfuric acid and from which an exhaust gas comprising sulfur dioxide and oxygen is discharged; and a heat exchange means 63 for preparing the temperature-risen first cooling medium and the cooled second cooling medium by the heat exchange between the temperature-risen second cooling medium and the first cooling medium and supplying either one of the temperature-risen first cooling medium or the cooled second cooling medium to the waste heat boiler 52.

This production method comprises: an alkali extraction step (step 12) for obtaining an alkaline leachate by adding an alkali and water or an alkaline solution to raw material ash, which contains ammonium sulfate, sulfuric acid, vanadium, and at least one other metal selected from among nickel, iron, and magnesium, until a pH of 13 or higher is reached; a solid-liquid separation step (step 13) for separating the alkaline leachate into solid and liquid phases to obtain a vanadium-containing leached filtrate; an evaporation/concentration step (step 14) for evaporating and concentrating the leached filtrate to obtain a concentrate; and a crystallization/solid-liquid separation step (step 15) for cooling the concentrate to cause crystallization and recovering a vanadium compound-containing precipitate. The other production method comprises: an alkali extraction step (step 32); a solid-liquid separation step (step 4); an evaporation/concentration step (step 36); an alkali concentration adjustment step (step 37) for obtaining a concentration-adjusted solution by further adding an alkali or an alkali solution to the concentrate; and a crystallization/solid-liquid separation step (step 38).
