Sulphuric Acid Prices Drop as Economic Downturn Reduces Demand
Sulphuric acid is an essential chemical that is widely used in various industries, including fertilizers, textiles, and detergents. The price decline is mainly attributed to a significant decrease in demand due to the economic downturn.
The decline in demand has resulted in a surplus of sulphuric acid in the market, leading to lower prices. Also, the increase in supply from the US and Asia has further contributed to the decrease in prices. Despite this, Canada remains a significant exporter of sulphuric acid and continues to supply the North American and global markets.
Canada produces sulphuric acid through the smelting of copper, nickel, and zinc ores. The decreasing demand for these metals has further impacted the production of sulphuric acid, resulting in lower prices. However, the government is taking steps to promote the production and export of sulphuric acid as part of its drive to boost the manufacturing sector and create jobs.
