Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a continuous process for the manufacture of nitrobenzene. This process comprises the nitration of benzene with nitrating acid that contains at least 3.0 wt. % of nitric acid and at least 67.0 wt. % of sulfuric acid, in a reaction space in which the start temperature of the reaction is above 100.0° C. but below 102.0° C. In addition, this process requires that the benzene and the nitrating acid are dispersed in one another several times.
