Sulfur Processing
Sulfur Melting and Purification
Sulphurnet has focused its activities on the Design and Manufacturing of liquid sulfur processing: melting and purification plants. We engineer complete sulfur melting and filtration systems to the strictest production and environmental requirements, with a typical turnkey project covering the entire process from the Solid Sulfur Feeding conveyors, up to the clean sulfur storage tank. Our activities range from the FEED (front-end engineering design) to the manufacturing and start-up of the plant. Sulphurnet delivers turnkey solutions for sulfur melting and purification, including utility equipment and control systems.
The Process
The typical Sulphurnet sulfur melting and filtration process starts in the solid sulfur handling section, where solid sulfur gets loaded on a conveyor belt and gets neutralized by adding lime.
Using the conveyor belt the solid sulfur is transported to the liquid sulfur melting tank, where the sulfur is heated until its melting point to form liquid sulfur.
Whereafter the Liquid Sulfur flows from the Melting tank into the dirty sulfur tank from where it is pumped to the liquid sulfur filter. Inside the liquid sulfur filter, solid particles are removed from the liquid sulfur. Additionally, a liquid sulfur polishing filter can be installed after the liquid sulfur filter to remove even finer particles and act as a safety filter.
The now clean liquid sulfur is stored in the liquid sulfur storage tank from where it can be used by other processes requiring clean liquid sulfur.

Melting Tank
The tank comes equipped with a conical bottom with the ability to drain without stopping the tank operation, is executed with internal brick lining for corrosion prevention, and is fitted with an agitator to increase melting efficiency.
The main advantages of using a Sulphurnet Sulphur Melter are:
Filtration
Sulphur Modules
Modular units for sulphur processing, melting and filtration. These units can be combined to create a complete compact sulphur melting and purification plant that is adaptable for a broad range of capacities, from 5 to 300 Mt sulphur/day.
Instrumentation & Valves
In order to allow for maximum control over the Sulphur processing: Melting and Purification process, Sulphurnet offers a wide variety of process instrumentation and valves suitable for use with liquid sulphur.
Sulphurnet offers the following instruments and valves:
Sulphur Pump Skids
Operator and bystander safety is a very important topic while loading and unloading liquid sulphur trucks and railcars. That is why Sulphurnet offers pump systems that guarantee safe, reliable, and quick operations.
The complete skid is designed by Sulphurnet as a plug-and-play solution that minimizes the work on-site with a fast installation feature and is manufactured in a controlled environment following all international standards
