Is the acid vapor inside? If so, you need an exhaust hood to capture and exhaust it. Check with the Industrial Ventilation manual. Make-up air should equal exhaust plus 10% for pressurization. Exhaust duct and fan must be corrosion resistant to the vapors.

If it is outside, you may need a tall stack to capture clean outside air to pressurize the bldg. against acid vaport infiltration.

Use 75 Deg.F db/50% RH for indoor design set point.

 
Are you even in the US? You need to look that the specific environmental regulations of your country.
