Latest News- Sulfuric Acid Market in US: Elemental sulfur is expected to lead the Raw Material segment during 2025-2029

The Sulfuric Acid Market in US is being driven by Growing demand for sulfuric acid from diversified applications

The Sulfuric Acid Market in US is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.8% during 2024 and 2029. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of USD 1194.5 million. In the US market, the enactment of rigorous environmental regulations to mitigate sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions is driving the growth of sulfuric acid production at smelters. Sulfuric acid can be derived from smelter by-products, contributing approximately 16.12% to the total sulfuric acid output. Copper, lead, molybdenum, and zinc roaster smelters are significant contributors to this segment. To comply with SO2 emission norms, efficient sulfuric acid recovery plants are being installed in copper manufacturing facilities. These plants not only minimize sulfur burning but also effectively utilize smelter residues, such as SO2 produced during copper matte oxidation.
