Sulfuric acid (H2SO4) is the largest volume commodity chemical in use today.It plays some part in the production ofnearly all manufactured goods. One large use of concentrated sulfuric acid is used as a catalyst for refinery alkylationunits.Intheseunits,C3-C5olefinssuchaspropyleneorbutylenearereactedwithisobutanetoformgasoline-blendingcomponents such as isoheptane and isooctane.These gasoline-blending components are used to boost octane forautomobileandaviationfuels.
Most refineries have an alkylation unit that uses either hydrofluoric acid (HF) or sulfuric acid as the alkylation catalyst.Thisstandarddealswithspentsulfuricacidassociatedwiththesulfuricacidalkylationprocessonly.

NACE SP0291-2023, Care, Handling, and Installation of Internally Plastic-Coated Oilfield Tubular Goods and Accessories
This standard practice covers the care, handling, transportation, and installation of internally plastic-coated (IPC) oilfield tubular goods and accessories (IPC material). Some internal plastic coatings are inherently brittle or may be incom- patible with various chemicals used in oil and gas production operations and therefore are susceptible to damage from poor handling procedures, well operations, and chemical attack. Coating damage (e.g., cracks, chips, and disbond- ment) reduces coating effectiveness and results in premature coating failure.
