Abstract
This invention relates to a process for producing Caro's acid by reaction of at least 85% by weight sulfuric acid and at least 50% by weight hydrogen peroxide wherein the sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide are fed through separate feed lines into a funneling zone open to the atmosphere, the feed lines having air gaps between their ends and the funneling zone; continuing to introduce the sulfuric acid and the hydrogen peroxide into the funneling zone to flow and mix within the funneling zone, passing the resulting mixture by gravity flow into one end of a reaction zone whose size permits a pressure drop which is at least 8 times the theoretical pressure drop for such reaction zone and removing a mixture containing Caro's acid from the exit end of the reaction zone.
