Molten Sulphur Filters

Molten Sulphur Filters

• Need: While manufacturing Sulphuric Acid from elemental sulphur through acid manufacturing process as well as Chamber & contact, sulphur is burned at high temperature and leaves a residue called sulphur Di-oxide. In this process, presence of solid matter or ash can create high problem in acid plant, here molter sulpheric filters find their usage. Basic purpose behind using these is to remove all those particles that can create problem in suplhur production.
  
• Characteristic of Molten Sulphur: Molten sulphur, which is obtained from sulphuric acid has high freezing point and peculiar viscosity, which makes it difficult to handle. When the temperature of molten sulphur is increased from its melting point (110) to 157 Deg C then its Viscosity heavily decreases and then further increase with the temperature. For having constant temperature of molten sulphur during  filteration process, all the valves & lines and filteration equipment are steam jacketed.
• Operating Data:  Temperature: 140 - 145 Deg C
• -Flow: 2.5 - 3 Tons / M2 / Day.
