Process for the granulating of sulphur and a sulphur granulator

Abstract From the Canadian patent

Sulphur is obtained to the desired granulation and at the same time cooled by means of a directed hollow cylindrical jet of melted sulphur on, either side of which, i.e. both inside and outside the cylinder of molten sulphur, there are jets of cold water, the three jets directed onto a disk which disk is able to turn freely. The jets of water and sulphur strike the disk between the middle of the disk and its outer edge and make it turn while at the same time the sulphur hardens into granules. The turning spins the granules off the disk. The fact that there are two jets of water leads to a better particle size of the sulphur and because there is a better, contact between the water and the …
