Environment
Sulfuric acid is harmful to the environment because when it gets into the atmosphere as particles/droplets it would react with the chemicals in the atmosphere which dissolves the acid. This acid dissolves into clouds, fog, rain, snow, or even mist. This will impact this environment as wet acid deposition (acid rain). Sulfuric acid also effects many of the wildlife in our ecology. Sulfuric acid doesn't have a good impact on the environment.
Ecology
Sulfuric acid is also harmful to our ecology. Sulfuric acid is moderately toxic to our aquatic life such as invertebrates, micro organisms, aquatic plants, and fish. It is also harmful to our land creatures because of its corrosivity. It can burn plants, land animals, and our birds that have been exposed to it in the ecosystem. Sulfuric acid doesn't have a good impact on the ecosystems.
Economy
Sulfuric acid may not have a good impact on our environment and ecology but it does have a very good impact on the economy of our society. We use sulfuric acid in the production of many things to aid our society. Sulfuric acid is popular in the making of fertilizer which is in turn important for our agriculture and farming. It is a very important resource that helps us in the metal processing, painting, and our medical drugs. This resource had a huge impact on our economy and huge demands for it. This resource is important in our economy so it doesn't have a bad impact on the economy. The cost is pretty expensive as it cost about $18 per bottle.
Human Health
Sulfuric acid has a very negative effect on health. To recall, sulfuric acid is highly corrosive and causes burns,swelling,cuts, redness, etc. It is a substance that should be handled with proper equipment. Sulfuric acid can also harm the health of wildlife/plant life. It can be exposed by inhalation, skin, ingestion, etc.
Alternatives
Sulfuric acid is used to control pH, cleaning, regenerate ion exchange resins, processing, and electronic operations. Alternatives can be used to reduce cost and byproduct. It can help with safety by a little because some substances are more safe than sulfuric acid. In pH control we can use carbon dioxide to control pH in waste water. In cleaning, there are 10 non-sulfuric acid products that can be used in cleaning. In regenerating of ion exchange resins, reverse osmosis can be used instead of sulfuric acid which can help in the treating of water. Hydrochloric acid, phosphoric acid, hydrogen peroxide, per-sulfate, and anodizers can be used to replace sulfuric acid in the usage for processing of metal and electronic operations.
