Sulfur

– element of the periodic system of chemical elements D.I. Mendeleev, with atomic numbers 16. Denoted by the symbol S (from the Latin Sulfur). In hydrogen and oxygen compounds it is found in various ions and forms many salts and acids.

Sulfur is the sixteenth most abundant chemical element on Earth. It is found in a free (native) state, and in the form of compounds.

Sulfur, along with oil, coal, table salt and limestone, is one of the five main types of raw materials of the chemical industry and is of strategic importance for providing the population with food, since in addition to nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium and magnesium, it is a necessary mineral nutrient for plants, a source soil fertility and increased productivity.
In general, the global sulfur industry can be divided into two sectors based on the forms of sulfur production: specialized and “by-product”. The specialized sector focuses exclusively on the extraction of sulfur or pyrites from deposits of these raw materials. This sector accounts for about 10.5% of the total global sulfur production.
Production:
Modern methods of industrial sulfur production can be reduced to three types:
– Extraction of native sulfur (10.5%);

– Production of industrial and natural gases from hydrogen sulfide;

– Obtained from sulfur dioxide released in the process of metallurgical production. The extraction of sulfur from hydrogen sulfide contained in oil and natural gas fields has, first of all, an environmental goal, since the utilization of sulfur or the neutralization of its compounds is mandatory when obtaining the main hydrocarbon products. Thus, in the process of refining oil, natural gas, as well as coke production, sulfur is a by-product.

It is necessary to note the exceptional diversity of commercial forms of sulfur. Such a wide range reflects the different origins of sulfur (natural, associated, etc.), features of isolation or purification technology, and areas of application. Currently, the main ones are lump, granular and liquid The advantages of lump sulfur are the simplicity of the preparation technology, which consists of pouring and solidifying liquid sulfur on a concrete site, followed by breaking up sulfur blocks up to 3 m high, stacking them and loading them onto vehicles. The main disadvantage is losses of up to 3% during the operation of excavator loosening of sulfur blocks
Granular Granulated sulfur is called sulfur, consisting of homogeneous particles with a diameter of 1 to 5 millimeters. The presence of particles less than the specified size and sulfur dust is unacceptable. Granulated sulfur is convenient for the consumer and transportation, practically does not generate dust during loading and unloading operations, which improves sanitary and hygienic working conditions and production culture.
Scaled Sulfur flakes 0.5-2 mm thick, formed when solidified sulfur is cut off from the surface of a crystallizer drum, partially immersed in a liquid medium and rotating at a certain speed
Liquid Liquid sulfur as a primary form is in growing demand. This is especially true for large-capacity consumers and transportation over relatively short distances (up to 800-1000 km), when energy costs for maintaining sulfur in a molten state are less than when melting it at the point of use. Capital investments and energy costs associated with storage, transportation, and unloading of liquid sulfur are compensated by the high purity of the product, the impossibility of its contamination, the absence of losses and high production standards.

Application:
Sulfur is used throughout chemical production. Sulfur is necessary for the production of sulfuric acid, dyes, sulfites, in pulp and paper, textile and other industries.

According to various sources, approximately half of sulfur use is for the production of sulfuric acid.

Approximately 20-25% of sulfur and technical sulfur is spent on the production of various sulfites.

About 10-15% is for agricultural needs as raw materials for the production of pesticides to protect plants from harmful insects.

Also, 10% of sulfur is used in the rubber vulcanization process.

Sulfur is also used in the areas of artificial fibers, phosphors, pigments, dyes, in the production of matches, explosives, and dosage forms.

Recently, in North America and Europe, sulfur has found exotic use as an additive or replacement for bitumen, for four main reasons:
– The first reason is the possibility of reducing the consumption of bitumen, the price of which has increased significantly due to rising oil prices and the energy crisis. And reducing the bitumen content in sulfur bitumen binders due to the addition of cheaper and available in significant quantities of sulfur makes it possible to reduce the cost of constructing a road surface;
– The second reason is the significant depletion of available reserves of non-metallic materials used in the construction of road surface layers, which have to be imported from other, usually remote, areas. The use of sulfur bitumen binders allows the widespread use of local sandy soils, weak stone materials, ash and slag in road construction, which also provides a significant economic effect.
– The third reason is the significant improvement in the properties of asphalt concrete mixtures based on sulfur bitumen binder. These include higher compressive strength, which makes it possible to reduce the thickness of the corresponding layers of road surfaces; higher thermal stability without a significant increase in rigidity at low temperatures, which reduces the risk of cracks forming in the layers of road pavements in cold (winter) times and plastic deformations in hot (summer) periods.
– Possibility of preparing mixtures based on sulfur bitumen binder at lower heating temperatures of the components; higher resistance of sulfur bitumen materials to dynamic loads; higher resistance to gasoline, diesel fuel and other organic solvents, which makes it possible to use them in coatings in parking lots and service stations.
– The conclusions are based on twenty years of experience in the use of sulfur in road construction in the USA, Canada and Western Europe.

World sulfur production is 80,000,000 tons/year (first decade of the 21st century).

Ecology:
Sulfur compounds occupy one of the first places among pollutants in their negative impact on the environment. The main source of pollution with sulfur compounds is the combustion of coal and petroleum products. 96% of sulfur enters the Earth's atmosphere in the form of SO 2, the rest comes from sulfates, H 2 S, CS 2, COS, etc.

In the form of dust, elemental sulfur irritates the respiratory system and human mucous membranes, and can cause eczema and other disorders. The maximum permissible concentration of sulfur in air is 0.07 mg/m 3 (aerosol, hazard class 4). Many sulfur compounds are toxic.

This standard applies to natural technical sulfur obtained from native sulfur and polymetallic sulfide ores, and industrial gas sulfur obtained from the purification of natural and coke oven gases, as well as waste gases from oil and shale processing.
Technical sulfur is used for the production of sulfuric acid, carbon disulfide, dyes, in pulp and paper, textile and other industries and for export.
The requirements of this standard are mandatory.

INFORMATION DATA

REFERENCE REGULATIVE AND TECHNICAL DOCUMENTS

Sulfur is a substance that is located in the periodic table in group 16, under the third period and has an atomic number of 16. It can be found both in native and bound form. Sulfur is designated by the letter S. The known formula for sulfur is (Ne)3s23p4. Sulfur as an element is part of many proteins.

If we talk about the structure of the atom of the element sulfur, then in its outer orbit there are electrons, the valence number of which reaches six.

This explains the element's property of being maximally hexavalent in most combinations. There are four isotopes in the structure of a natural chemical element, and these are 32S, 33S, 34S and 36S. Speaking about the outer electron shell, the atom has a 3s2 3p4 scheme. The radius of the atom is 0.104 nanometers.

The properties of sulfur are primarily divided into physical types. This includes the fact that the element has a solid crystalline composition. Two allotropic modifications are the basic state in which this sulfur element is stable.

The first modification is rhombic, lemon-yellow in color. Its stability is lower than 95.6 °C. The second is monoclinic, having a honey-yellow color. Its resistance ranges from 95.6 °C and 119.3 °C.

During smelting, the chemical element becomes a moving liquid that is yellow in color. It turns brown, reaching temperatures of more than 160 °C. And at 190 °C the color of sulfur turns into dark brown. After reaching 190 °C, a decrease in the viscosity of the substance is observed, which nevertheless becomes liquid after heating to 300 °C.

Other properties of sulfur:

  • Practically does not conduct heat or electricity.
  • Does not dissolve when immersed in water.
  • It is soluble in ammonia, which has an anhydrous structure.
  • It is also soluble in carbon disulfide and other organic solvents.

It is important to add its chemical characteristics to the characteristics of sulfur. She is active in this regard. If sulfur is heated, it can simply combine with almost any chemical element.

With the exception of inert gases. Upon contact with metals, chemicals. the element forms sulfides. Room temperature allows the element to react with mercury. Increased temperature increases the activity of sulfur.

Let's consider how sulfur behaves with individual substances:

  • With metals it is an oxidizing agent. Forms sulfides.
  • Active interaction occurs with hydrogen at high temperatures - up to 200 ° C.
  • With oxygen. Oxides form at temperatures up to 280 °C.
  • With phosphorus, carbon - it is an oxidizing agent. Only if there is no air during the reaction.
  • With fluorine it acts as a reducing agent.
  • With substances that have a complex structure - also as a reducing agent.

Sulfur deposits and production

The main source for obtaining sulfur is its deposits. In total, there are 1.4 billion tons of reserves of this substance worldwide. It is mined both by open and underground mining and by smelting from underground.

If the latter case applies, then water is used, which is overheated and melts the sulfur with it. In low-grade ores, the element is contained in approximately 12%. Rich - 25% and more.

Common types of deposits:

  1. Stratiform - up to 60%.
  2. Salt dome - up to 35%.
  3. Volcanogenic - up to 5%.

The first type is associated with strata called sulfate-carbonate. At the same time, ore bodies that have a thickness of up to several tens of meters and a size of up to hundreds of meters are located in sulfate rocks.

Also, these strata deposits can be found among rocks of sulfate and carbonate origin. The second type is characterized by gray deposits, which are confined to salt domes.

The latter type is associated with volcanoes that have a young and modern structure. In this case, the ore element has a sheet-like, lens-shaped shape. It may contain sulfur in the amount of 40%. This type of deposit is common in the Pacific volcanic belt.

Sulfur deposit in Eurasia is located in Turkmenistan, the Volga region and other places. Sulfur rocks are found near the left banks of the Volga, which stretch from Samara. The width of the rock strip reaches several kilometers. Moreover, they can be found all the way to Kazan.

Various methods are used to extract sulfur. It all depends on the conditions of its occurrence. At the same time, of course, special attention is paid to safety.

Since hydrogen sulfide accumulates along with sulfur ore, it is necessary to take a particularly serious approach to any mining method, because this gas is poisonous to humans. Sulfur also tends to ignite.

Most often they use the open method. So, with the help of excavators, significant parts of the rocks are removed. Then the ore part is crushed using explosions. The lumps are sent to the factory for enrichment. Then - to the sulfur smelting plant, where sulfur is obtained from concentrate.

In the case of deep occurrence of sulfur in many volumes, the Frasch method is used. The sulfur melts while still underground. Then, like oil, it is pumped out through a broken well. This approach is based on the fact that the element melts easily and has a low density.

A separation method using centrifuges is also known. Only this method has a drawback: sulfur is obtained with impurities. And then it is necessary to carry out additional cleaning.

In some cases, the borehole method is used. Other possibilities for extracting the sulfur element:

  • Steam-water.
  • Filtration.
  • Thermal.
  • Centrifugal.
  • Extraction.

Application of sulfur

Most of the mined sulfur is used to make sulfuric acid. And the role of this substance is very huge in chemical production. It is noteworthy that to obtain 1 ton of sulfuric substance, 300 kg of sulfur is needed.

Sparklers, which glow brightly and have many dyes, are also made using sulfur. The paper industry is another area where a significant portion of the extracted substance goes.

Most often, sulfur is used to satisfy industrial needs. Here are some of them:

  • Use in chemical production.
  • For the production of sulfites, sulfates.
  • Production of substances for fertilizing plants.
  • To obtain non-ferrous types of metals.
  • To give steel additional properties.
  • For making matches, materials for explosions and pyrotechnics.
  • Paints and fibers from artificial materials are produced using this element.
  • For bleaching fabrics.

In some cases, sulfur is included in ointments that treat skin diseases.

    sulfur comparison sample containing 0.03% carbon for sulfur grades 9998,9995, 9990 and 9985 and 0.15% for other grades.

    (Changed edition, Amendment No. 2).

    3.5.1.1a. Preparing the installation for anaaisis

    A quartz or porcelain tube 8 is inserted into furnaces 9 and 75, which should protrude from the furnaces by at least 175 mm on each side. Both ends of the pipe are closed with plugs 7 and 74, into the holes of which one-way glass taps are inserted b.

    In pipe 8 of furnace 75, between asbestos plugs, a copper mesh 12 is placed, rolled up in the form of a cylinder, sprinkled with calcium silicate that does not contain CO 2. Instead of a mesh, you can use copper wire

    drawing wire, copper filings or copper oxide.

    To burn the sulfur sample, oxygen is supplied to the furnace from a cylinder 7 with a reducer 2 or from a gasometer 5. The oxygen is purified by passing through a Tishchenko flask 4 containing a solution of potassium permanganate with mass

    fractions of 5% in a solution of potassium hydroxide with a mass fraction of 35%, then through column 5 for dry absorbents, filled at the bottom with glass beads, and at the top with roundworm and calcium chloride, separated by glass or absorbent wool. The oxygen supply is regulated by tap b #

    Gases from the furnace to remove sulfur combustion products are passed sequentially through a U-shaped tube 15 filled with glass or hygroscopic wool (to retain solid particles entrained by the gas and condensing sulfuric acid mist), through a buffer vessel 16, which prevents the transfer of chromic anhydride into the U- shaped tube 15, through two absorption vessels 17 containing 50 cm 3 of a solution of chromic anhydride in sulfuric acid. After this, the gas enters a gas analyzer of the GOU-1 type to measure the volume of carbon dioxide.

    A gas analyzer of type GOU-1 consists of a gas measuring burette (eudiometer) 1 24 with a capacity of 250 cm 3 with an automatic float shutter 22, a thermometer 23 and a scale 26, a refrigerator 25 and an absorption vessel 18 filled with a solution of potassium hydroxide and equipped with an automatic float shutter 22. The scale divisions show the percentage of carbon in sulfur in a 1 g sample.

    Burette 24 has double walls (jacket), the space between which is filled with water through a special hole at the top of the burette to maintain a constant temperature.

    The equalization bottle 27 has a side tube 31, closed with a stopper 32. The bottle 27 is filled with 400 to 500 cm 3 of an aqueous solution of sodium sulfate and closed with a rubber stopper 29, into the hole of which a three-way valve 28 with a rubber bulb 30 is inserted. Using the bulb, the gas mixture is pumped from burettes 24 into absorption vessel 18 and back.

    (Introduced additionally, Amendment No. 2).

    3.5 L.2. Preparing the instrument for analysis

    Before starting operation, furnaces 9 and 13 are heated to a temperature of (850 ± 50) °C and (525 ± 25) °C, respectively. Check all connections and taps for leaks and bring the device into working condition. To do this, the valve 21 of the comb 19 is placed in a position in which the burette 24, the absorption vessel 18 and the refrigerator 25 are disconnected from each other. Having opened the valve 20 to connect the burette 24 to the atmosphere, using the equalizing bottle 27 and the bulb 30, fill the burette 24 with barrier liquid (in this case, the valve 28 of the equalizing bottle 27 is placed in the position of isolation from the atmosphere, and the tube 31 is closed with a stopper 32).

    As soon as the liquid fills the burette 24, the valve 20 is closed, the valve 21 is placed in a position in which the burette 24 is connected to the absorption vessel 18. The valve 28 of the equalizing flask 27 is placed in connection with the atmosphere, while the liquid from the burette 24 begins to flow into the flask.

    ku 27, the level of alkali solution in the absorption vessel 18 increases, raising the float 22.

    As soon as the float closes the outlet from the absorption vessel 18, the valve 21 of the comb 19 is placed in a position in which the burette 24, the absorption vessel 18 and the refrigerator 25 are disconnected from each other. The small tap 20 is again placed at the connection of the burette with the atmosphere and, in the same way as indicated above, using the equalizing flask 27, tap 28 and bulb 30, the burette 24 is filled with liquid to the upper limit (the float closes the exit from the burette).

    When the burette 24 is filled with liquid, the valve 20 is closed, and the valve 28 of the equalizing flask 27 is connected to the atmosphere.

    If the device is sealed, then the absorption vessel 18 remains filled, and the liquid level in the burette remains unchanged. The constancy of the level is observed when the liquid is in the narrow part of the burette 24; the reading is carried out according to the divisions of the scale 26.

    If the solution levels drop, then the device is not sealed; it should be disassembled, the taps wiped, lubricated with Vaseline and checked again for leaks.

    After making sure that the device is sealed, a control determination of the sulfur reference sample is carried out.

    (Changed edition, Amendment No. 2).

    3.5.1.3. Analysis conditions

    The measuring burette must be thoroughly cleaned of contamination by rinsing with a chrome mixture and then with distilled water.

    When reading the burette scale, you must always bring the tube 31 of the equalizing flask 27 to the burette in the same way, holding it so that the liquid is always at the same level. The hose connecting the burette to the equalizing flask must always be in the same position and not hang down from the table.

    Readings of the burette can be carried out only after 15-20 seconds of exposure (measured using a stopwatch), so that the liquid can completely drain from the walls.

    When 8 drops of sulfuric acid appear in the tube, calcium silicate (barium) is replaced with fresh one.

    Porcelain or quartz boats 80-100 mm long are calcined in an oven at 800-900°C and stored in a desiccator.

    3.5 L.4. Carrying out analysis

    Before starting work, three boats 10 ts 11 with calcium silicate (barium) are pushed into the combustion tube 8 using a copper hook through the hole for the plug 7 and the heating of furnaces 9 and 13 is turned on.

    As soon as the furnaces are heated to the appropriate temperatures, the gas analyzer is placed in the working position, and tube 8 is connected with plugs 7 and 14 to U-shaped tube 75 and tap 6, after which a control experiment is carried out, i.e. pass a current of oxygen through a heated tube 8 and observe the readings on the scale 26 of the burette 24 before and after the absorption of carbon dioxide.

    As soon as carbon disappears from the system, the difference in scale readings before and after the absorption of carbon dioxide will be zero or will give the same value (1-2 scale divisions), which is subtracted in the calculation. Then the operation of the device is checked using a sulfur comparison sample, for this, boats 10 and 11 are removed from tube 8 of furnace 9, 0.3 - 0.5 g of a sulfur comparison sample is placed in boat 10, calcium silicate (barium) is poured over Boats 10 and 11 quickly push it into tube 8 of oven 9 using a hook and close the tube with rubber stopper 7. Open tap 6 and pass a current of oxygen from gasometer 3 at a speed of 4 - 5 bubbles per second. The valve 21 must be adjusted so that the discharge of the barrier liquid from the burette 24 into the flask 27 occurs evenly (filling the burette 24 with gases should last about 1-1.5 minutes). In this case, the valve 28 of the equalizing flask 27 is placed in connection with the atmosphere.

    As soon as the narrow (lower) part of the burette is filled with gases and the liquid level reaches the zero division of scale 26, valve 21 is placed in the position of disconnection from the refrigerator 25, burette 24 and absorber 18, the oxygen supply is stopped (the valve 6 is closed), the liquid is allowed to drain from the walls and After 15 - 20 s, the volume of the resulting gas mixture is measured. To do this, remove the stopper 32 from the tube 31 of the bottle 2 7 and, moving the bottle 27 at the appropriate position of the valve 28 along the burette (next to it), reach a position at which the liquid levels in the burette 24 and the tube 31 of the bottle 27 are at the same level. The readings of the scale 26 are recorded, the tube 31 is closed with a stopper 32. The flask 27 is disconnected from the atmosphere with a tap 28, the burette 24 is connected to the vessel 18 by turning the tap 21, and with the help of a bulb 30 the gaseous products are transferred 2-3 times from the burette 24 to the absorption vessel 18 and back. When transferring gas to burette 24, valve 28 of the equalizing flask is placed in the position of communication with the atmosphere. Record the scale readings. The difference in readings before and after absorption of CO 2 indicates the volume of absorbed carbon dioxide. After measuring the volume of absorbed carbon dioxide using tap 20, the burette is emptied of gas, filled with a barrier liquid, and secondary combustion is carried out. The determination is considered complete if, during the control combustion of the sample, the difference in the counts before and after the absorption of CO 2 is equal to zero. At the end of each test, temperature and atmospheric pressure are measured and, using the table attached to the device, a correction is found for the conditions under which the carbon determination was carried out.

    3.5 L.5 o Processing of results

    The mass fraction of carbon (X 3) as a percentage is calculated using the formula
