Can the gas used for sulfur degassing be replaced with nitrogen?

Can the air in the sulfur degassing tank be replaced with nitrogen? What are the respective effects of using degassed exhaust gas containing air and nitrogen on the reaction furnace? I would appreciate it if the teachers could give me some guidance. Thank you!

Blast air participates in the oxidation reaction; nitrogen does not

Nitrogen should be used; if air is used, won’t that reach the explosive limit? It’s very dangerous.

I’m thinking that the wind enters from the middle of the furnace; without mixing as it passes through the burner, there will definitely be uneven mixing. This, in turn, accelerates the sulfation of the catalyst when it reaches the reactor. Besides, for oxidation reactions, proper air supply is sufficient – there’s not much point in it entering the reactor to participate in the reaction. I’m a bit confused about this

We use unpurified air; the hydrogen sulfide content in liquid sulfur is very low, at the PPM level, which is far below the explosion limit. Do you use nitrogen?

With steam? Can the sulfur content in the water meet the standards? Our steam is used for the ejector, to remove the air from the sulfur tank

What’s the use of this “deaeration tank fan” of yours?

Our ejectors also use steam.

Used for removing hydrogen sulfide from liquid sulfur
