Sulphur

During the hydrogenation process of refining crude oil, Hydrogen Sulphide is released and converted to elemental sulphur. Most of the sulphur produced is used to make sulfuric acid (H2SO4), carbon disulphide, sulphur dioxide, and phosphorous penta-sulphide. Sulphur comes under Arms and Ammunition Act. The license is issued by District Magistrate for acquiring storage and sale of Sulphur at Domestic market.

Forms of Sulphur

GRADE	CHARACTERISTICS	LOGISTICS & STORAGE
Molten	It is in the liquid form	Used in nearby industry where the molten sulphur could be used directly in process. Requires special transportation in Bulk tankers.
Pastilles	Large lumps formed by dropping sulphur in water pits	Has significant amount of moisture and external contaminants. Can be transported in Stake Trucks and stored in open yards.
Formed	Formed as pellets thru Rotoformer or as Globules in a prilling tower	Can be transported in Stake Trucks and stored in open yards.
