    1. Durco Molten Sulfur Processing Filtration Expertise & Solution


    Durco Molten Sulfur Filtration Expertise
    Durco knows more about molten sulfur filtration than any other filtration manufacturer. We have improved process performance and eliminated costly maintenance for many sulfuric acid producers. Technologically advanced designs based on over 60 years of experience have made Durco the unchallenged leader in molten sulfur filtration.

    Application
    Molten sulfur is commonly used to produce sulfuric acid (H2S04). Sulfuric acid is typically used in the manufacture of fertilizer or in acid leach mining. The process of converting elemental sulfur to sulfuric acid begins with the burning of the sulfur to form S02 gas. The S02 is recovered and converted by catalyst step-wise from S02 to H2S04.

    Solution The Durco Molten Sulfur Filter


    Durco specially designed pressure leaf filters greatly reduce the maintenance costs in molten sulfur processing: Burner cleaning is reduced from a burdensome and costly task every 2 hours to a 3 monthly maintenance event. Shut-downs are minimized and S02 gas filters can be eliminated. Only Durco Molten Sulfur Pressure Leaf Filters incorporate exclusive features such as a full steam jacket, proprietary filter leaves, and devices for eliminating build-up of hardened sulfur.

    Challenge
    During storage and handling, sulfur becomes contaminated with solids such as dirt and ash. This contamination quickly plugs sulfur burners, S02 gas filters and catalyst beds. The burners need to be "rodded" regularly and long shutdowns are needed to clean the catalyst beds.

    3. Durco Molten Sulfur Pressure Leaf Filters Filtration Features & Benefits
    Durcos molten sulfur filters incorporate many proprietary design features:
    Overhead Frame (Optional) - Ascension Industries' unique overhead frame eliminates sulfur deposits on the shell retraction rails. Also protects the shell retraction mechanism and provides usable area under the rear section while on-stream. Quick Open Closure (QOC) - Fast access to the internals during cake discharge is important. Ascension Industries' QOC makes quick access easy. An integral mechanical interlock will not allow the filter to open under pressure. Teflon Scraper Plate - When the vessel is opened this proprietary device removes residual molten sulfur from the interior of the shell, eliminating buildup of hardened sulfur. Optimum Leaf Spacing - Leaf spacing is critical. Ascension Industries' proprietary leaf design allows large cakes to be built, permits easy cleaning and prevents damage to leaf nest by discouraging bridging. Proprietary Leaf Construction - Ascension Industries' exclusive welded leaf construction provides higher throughput, greater strength than competitors' designs. The unique design insures cake break up and prevents build up on the filtrate manifold. Full Steam Jacket - Specifically designed for molten sulfur filters, the steam jacket maintains process temperature throughout the vessel - even extending to the nozzle area to prevent cooling. The steam jacket also incorporates pressure relief valves on both the head and shell sections to allow safe operation at maximum steam pressure. High-Speed Shell Retraction - A powerful stainless steel reversing chain drive opens the shell quickly. Quick opening is vital to prevent cake cooling during discharge. Cake Deflectors - Located at both the front and rear of the leaf nest, these guides direct discharging cake into the cake container, preventing build-up inside the shell.
