ABSTRACT:
Sulphur pellets are produced by spraying molten sulphur from a vortex nozzle in the form of a downwardly diverging conical sheet or jet. The sulphur impacts on the surface of cooling water in a tank. The diverging nature of the jet and the resulting turbulent swirling action promotes the formation of pellets. Control of the size, surface texture, porosity and density of the pellets can be obtained for a vortex nozzle of any particular design by varying the supply pressure or pressure drop across the nozzle and the distance between the nozzle and the water surface.
