Sulphur is mostly produced in refineries as a by-product and used mainly to produce sulfuric acid which is widely used in the manufacture of phosphate fertilizers and used to make detergents, plastics, and other products.
Granular or granule sulphur is a form of sulphur that easy to handle, has a custom shape and seems like pea grains. Granular sulphur is also produced in refineries but with an additional process with respect to lump sulphur. Molten liquid sulphur is sprayed in granulator unit and exposed to a rapid cooling where sulphur particles are created.
Sulphur Pastilles are hemispherical shaped granules formed from pure molten sulphur using a drop-forming process. Granulation or pastillation as a method for producing bulk solid sulphur is often found in facilities where raw elemental sulphur is processed into a final or intermediate product, or in facilities (such as oil refineries) where Sulphur is being recovered as a by-product from another production process.
Sulphur pastilles are used in the production of sulfuric acid, phosphate fertilizers, plant protection products as well as in the steel, paper and food industries.
Granular sulfur is the raw material state of sulfur. Granular sulfur consists of small yellow particles that quickly disperse or break down in the soil. Its physical form is solid, and as expected, it has a sulfuric odor. The material is soft, easily crumbles, and is insoluble in water, although it does dissolve in some organic solvents such as carbon disulfide.
It is sulfur that has been taken from the refinery or extracted from the mine and has not been processed. Sulfur can be found in pure form in nature, as well as in combination with other elements. Granular Sulfur is the unprocessed commercial name of the element Sulfur, that is, sulfur with its well-known name. Due to its physical condition, Lamp is the general name used for Sulfur, which is also called chips. Granular sulfur in agriculture, due to the hardness of its structure, oxidation is impossible, it can be used by making it powdered or micronized by physical interventions. In addition, such products are also called Granular Sulfur due to the fact that Powdered or Liquid sulfur can be mixed with other components to make it granular.
Granulated sulphur is mainly used in the production of sulfuric acid, phosphorus fertilizers, plant protection chemicals, paper, food industry, agriculture, auto tires, explosives, chemicals and dyes, wastewater treatment, such as wastewater treatment also finds a wide range of uses and in the steel industry. Granulated sulphur is used in the manufacture of sulfuric acid, phosphate fertilizers and plant protection products, and in the steel industry.
Granular sulphur is a form of elemental sulphur that is processed into small, uniform granules. It is widely used in various industries due to its versatility and ease of handling. Here are some of its key applications:
1-Agriculture: Used as a soil amendment to lower pH levels and improve soil fertility. It is also a key ingredient in the production of sulphur-based fertilizers.
2- Chemical Industry: Acts as a raw material for producing sulphuric acid, which is essential in many industrial processes.
3-Rubber and Plastics: Used in the vulcanization process to strengthen rubber and in the production of certain plastics.
4-Mining and Metallurgy: Helps in the extraction of metals like copper and zinc.
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.

Granulated Sulphur
While the Benur Elemental Sulphur, which is produced in powder and granule, balances th PH value of the soil, also helps to increase the harvest bynourishing the soil.
