Glover (also †Glover's) tower: in the chamber process for the manufacture of sulphuric acid, the tower in which ‘nitrous vitriol’ from the Gay-Lussac tower is denitrated and sulphuric acid from the chambers is concentrated by being passed down through packing against an upward flow of hot sulphur dioxide and air, which undergo cooling on the way to the chambers (cf. denitrificator n. at denitrify v. Derivatives); also elliptical; Glover acid: the sulphuric acid formed at the bottom of the Glover tower, of a higher concentration than the chamber acid.
