Yes, It works without sulfuric acid. Pre-dip removes extra copper smut and gets contaminated with copper
faster. Then you have to change PRE-DIP often otherwise more copper will be build up in catalyst by
drag. Keep watch on copper content in catalyst. Change catalyst when copper >/= 1 g/l
Function of sulfuric acid is to minimise copper drag towards catalyst.
Try five to six loads by ommiting sulfuric acid tank with good rinse and create
confidence in what you are doing. It will be hardly a problem.
