Process Flow Diagram - Nitric Acid

This document is a process flow diagram for nitric acid production. It shows the flow of components like ammonia, oxygen, nitrogen, nitric oxide and nitric acid through various stages of filtering, oxidation, and condensation. The final products are nitric acid at 60% concentration and byproducts like water, with a production capacity of 100,000 metric tons per year for Client BOP chemicals.
