Sulfur Loading
Supporting Safer Work Environments with Reliable Access Solutions
About Industrial Sulfur Transport
Sulfur is the 10th most abundant element in the universe, accounting for nearly 3% of Earth’s total mass. It plays a crucial role in producing rubbers, detergents, fungicides, plastics, fertilizers, and sulfuric acid, the world’s most widely used chemical.
Globally, approximately 70 million tons of sulfur are produced annually, primarily as a byproduct from petroleum refineries and natural gas plants. The growing demand for sulfur presents molten sulfur transport facilities with unique safety and operational challenges, requiring specialized loading systems and compliance with OSHA sulfur handling safety requirements.
How Is Molten Sulfur Transported?
Molten sulfur transport requires maintaining a specific temperature range to keep the material in liquid form while preventing dangerous vapor buildup. Before transport, sulfur is heated to its melting point of 239°F, and during transit, it must remain between 266°F and 309°F to ensure safe loading and unloading.
If sulfur exceeds 309°F, it can generate sulfur dioxide, a toxic gas that is fatal if inhaled. Additionally, high concentrations of sulfur vapor combined with water vapor can trigger explosions. Since liquid sulfur is highly flammable, sulfur loading platforms and bulk liquid sulfur loading equipment must be designed to mitigate heat exposure risks and protect workers.

Crude oil sample catchers and oil thieves
We offer Tulsa Oil Thieves in three models and five sizes. All of the sample catchers feature single trip (original with the Tulsa Thief), antifouling flat-ball assembly, a full opening horizontal closure system with rotating valve, two adjustable springs (one for closing tension and one for tripping tension for more flexible adjustment) and adjustable graduated trip rods that hold the thief in an upright position as a hydrometer cylinder.
