What is Sulphur Granular?
Granular sulphur is formed elemental sulphur recovered from natural gas and refinery processing — the primary feedstock for sulphuric acid and phosphate fertilizer production, with further uses in rubber vulcanization and chemicals. Forming (granulation) gives a dust-suppressed, free-flowing product suited to bulk ocean transport. Related solids: Urea 46% and Petroleum Coke.
