Bulk Sulphur
Bulk sulphur is a bright yellow, crystalline solid element derived primarily from natural gas and crude oil refining processes. It is a fundamental industrial raw material used across multiple sectors due to its high purity, stability, and versatility. Canada is one of the world’s leading sulphur exporters, with production concentrated in Alberta, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan, where sulphur is recovered from sour gas and bitumen upgrading operations.

Key Characteristics:
Parameter Typical Value Description Purity 99.5% min High-grade elemental sulphur Form Solid (granular, prilled, or lump) Suitable for bulk transport Color Bright yellow Distinctive visual identifier Moisture < 0.5% Ensures stability and flowability Ash Content < 0.05% Low impurity content Melting Point 115–120 °C Easily liquefied for industrial use

Applications:
Fertilizer Production: Used in manufacturing sulphuric acid, elemental sulphur fertilizers, and ammonium sulphate for agriculture. Chemical Industry: Feedstock for sulphuric acid, sulfur dioxide, and various organic sulphur compounds. Metallurgy: Used in ore processing and metal extraction. Rubber and Paper: Vulcanization of rubber and bleaching processes. Energy and Refining: Intermediate for refinery catalysts and hydrodesulfurization operations.
