WASTE (EFFLUENT) GENERATION


The design basis for the remelter assumes that
the discharged waste will contain 50% sulphur
and 50% contaminates. This ratio can be affected
by the particle size distribution of the solids as
finer material will have more particle surface area
that can be ‘wetted’ by molten sulphur.

The remelting system is capable of removing


contaminates such as stones, foreign debris,
sand, and soils. The coarsest material will be
discharged from a filter basket (>6 mm), small CSR575™ model available for wetter,
material will be discharged from the screw more contaminated sulphur
