Sulphuric acid - Import export

Sulfur is one of the most important agricultural and industrial raw materials and is considered a strategic product. Sulfur is an odourless, tasteless and polyvalent nonmetal which is mostly in the form of yellow crystals and is obtained from sulphide and sulphate. Sulphur occurs naturally in the environment and is the thirteenth most abundant element in the earth’s crust. It can be mined in its elemental form, although this method has declined over the last decade to less than 2% of world production. Today most elemental sulphur is obtained as a co-product recovered from oil and gas production in sweetening process. Despite this, our company can offer both, sulfur obtained as a by-product, and sulfur mined in its elemental form. Depending on the needs of the client, we sell it in liquid or granular form, or in the form of a lump. Sulphur is the primary source in the production of sulphuric acid, the world’s most widely used chemical.

Recovery of acids and acidic rinse waters Additionally to the pickling bath treatment by microfiltration and ultrafiltration, the recovery of acid becomes more and more important. Additionally to sulphuric and hydrochloric acid, also mixed acids (HF / HNO3) can be recovered. The first step of the acid recovery is mostly a sludge separation by microfiltration. Downstream, diffusion dialysis, electrodialysis or nanofiltration is used for metal separation. For the treatment of rinse waters, OSMO Membrane Systems GmbH offers reverse osmosis or electrodialysis plants.

Wire mesh demisters/ mist eliminators are used in vertical column vessels to strip liquid particles from process flows, flue gases, exhaust air and steam. They're commonly incorporated into absorbers/ seawater desalination plants / washers / Sulphuric acid plants, to name a few. Construction is in a variety of metal and plastic materials, or combinations of them, to cope with the demands of temperature and/or corrosive environmental conditions as well as different density fluids in the gas stream. Mist eliminators are made to customer specification. Please contact us for more details. Please visit our website or contact us for more information on this product.
