The sulphuric acid plant - as the only sulphuric acid factory in Hungary - works on the basis of liquid elemental sulphur. Its production capacity is 150 000 tons/year. The produced sulphuric acid and oleum can be used in several sectors of the industry. The inorganic chemical, the metallurgical and the food industries require the largest amounts. The pharmaceutical and intermediary producers are also important customers.
