Regarding the loading of liquid sulfur
Thread Content
Help: What is the method for loading liquid sulfur onto ships? For example: the connection method between the dock and the ship’s cabin, the location of the connection, the heating arrangement, the measurement method, the selection of pumps, etc.
Liquid sulfur has a very high melting point; to facilitate transportation and reduce its viscosity, the transport temperature is around 160 degrees. Compared to asphalt and fuel oils with high freezing points, there is no significant difference; the pipelines require steam tracing or double-walled jackets, and loading/unloading arms are used for connection to ships. For measurement, it depends on the requirements of both trading parties; a mass flow meter is recommended.
After the metal pipes are delivered to the dock, is there a loading platform at the edge of the dock? What type is this loading and unloading arm? Is it equipped with a jacket? Is the distance between the dock and the ship’s hold fixed? If not, how is the length of this loading arm determined? Can a regular, detachable metal-jacketed hose meet the requirements?

Nowadays, tank cars are no longer unloaded at the docks for reloading onto ships; this was only an informal and occasional practice in the past at such docks. It is not done even when large quantities of goods need to be handled, as it is not advisable from either economic or safety perspectives. The loading and unloading arm can be equipped with a jacket; there is no issue with its length. The manufacturer designs the arm based on design specifications, the ship’s design, water level, etc. Regular models are all fine; you can consult the manufacturers in Lianyungang for more information. “I’ve never seen a \"metal jacketed hose\"; if it exists, it should be possible to use it.
Our company’s newly patented product, the liquid sulfur self-priming pump, can perfectly replace long-shaft submersible pumps. It enables automatic evacuation of the pump chamber after it is stopped, ensuring no residue of fluid remains in the chamber, preventing scaling, and avoiding blockages; it is also efficient, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly. It is also easy to maintain and has a long service life. I hope to be able to collaborate with Fa Jia. QQ: 410053248:handshake. Additionally, the production-based automatic unloading and silo-emptying pump can stop automatically once the materials have been unloaded, making it safe and reliable to use
