terials have to be
             transported to the plant, and the final product must be transported to the customer or distributor.
             Economic pros and cons must also be thought about. For example, must sulfuric plants are
             located near the market because it costs more to transport sulfuric acid than the main raw
             materials, sulfur. Elaborate commission proof container are required for the transportation of
             sulfuric acid while sulfur can be much more easily transported by truck or railway car. 3) Human
             Resources For a sulfuric acid plant to operate, a large work force will obviously be required. The
             plant must employ chemists, technicians, administrators, computer operators, and people in sales
             and marketing. A large number of workers will also be required for the daily operation of the
             plant. A work force of this diversity is therefore likely to be found only near major centres of
             population. 4) Energy Demands Large amounts of energy will also be required for the production
             of many industrial chemicals. Thus, proximity to a plentiful supply of energy is often a
             determining factor in deciding the plant's location. 5) Environmental Concerns Most importantly,
             however, concerns about the environment must be carefully taken into consideration. The
             chemical reaction of changing sulfur and other substances to sulfuric acid results in the formation
             of other substances like sulfur dioxide. This causes acid rain. Therefore, there is a big problem
             about sulfuric plants causing damage to our environment as the plant is a source of sulfur
             emission leading to that of acid rain. 6) Water Supplies Still another factor is the closeness of the
             location of the plants to water supplies as many manufacturing plants use water for cooling
             purposes. In addition to these factors, these questions must also be answered: Is land available
             near the proposed site at a reasonable cost? Is the climate of the area suitable? Are the general
             liv...
