Sulphur is a vital petrochemical product, widely produced as a by-product in oil refineries, natural gas processing plants, and petrochemical complexes through desulfurization processes. In its solid form, Sulphur is primarily marketed as granules, pastilles, or lump sulphur. It plays a crucial role in various industrial, agricultural, and chemical applications, making it one of the most demanded commodities in the global market.
Typical properties include:
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Chemical Formula | S |
| Purity | ≥ 99.5% (typical refinery grade) |
| Moisture Content | ≤ 0.5% |
| Acidity (as H₂SO₄) | ≤ 0.005% |
| Ash Content | ≤ 0.05% |
| Appearance | Yellow solid (granules, pastilles, or lumps) |
| Melting Point | 115 – 120 °C |
| Boiling Point | 444.6 °C |
| Bulk Density | 1.8 – 2.1 g/cm³ |
| Solubility in Water | Insoluble (but reactive with other compounds) |
Values may vary depending on production method and refinery specifications.
• High purity sulphur suitable for industrial and agricultural use.
• Stable solid form with excellent handling and storage capability.
• Non-toxic in elemental form, though should be handled carefully.
• Wide industrial versatility, from fertilizers to petrochemicals.
• Granular form ensures easy transportation, reduced dust, and high export potential.
• Agriculture: Production of sulphur-based fertilizers (e.g., ammonium sulphate, SSP, and sulphur-coated urea).
• Chemical industry: Key raw material for sulphuric acid, one of the most widely used industrial chemicals.
• Petrochemicals: Used in refining processes and as feedstock for producing solvents, detergents, and other chemicals.
• Rubber industry: Vulcanization of rubber to enhance elasticity and durability.
• Pharmaceuticals: Used in the synthesis of medicines and skin treatment products.
• Explosives and matches: Component in manufacturing explosives, gunpowder, and safety matches.
Sulphur (Petrochemical Grade) is supplied in:
• 50 kg polypropylene bags
• 1000 kg jumbo bags for bulk handling
• Bulk shipments in vessels, trucks, or railcars for export markets
• Custom packaging based on client requirements
• Non-toxic and non-corrosive in solid form, but sulphur dust may cause irritation.
• Store in dry, ventilated areas, away from sources of heat or ignition.
• Avoid inhalation of dust; use PPE such as masks and goggles.
• In molten form, sulphur is flammable; follow strict fire safety protocols.
• Complies with ISO, ASTM, and international trade standards.
