Abstract

A heated, jacketed pressure vessel is divided into a top mixing part d and a bottom settling part e by means of an apertured partition c. Two coaxially spaced cylinders of heating coils f1 and f2, mounted one within the other, are located in the top part, the outer cylinder f1 defining an annular chamber m with the wall a of the pressure vessel. A propellor g is mounted in the chamber enclosed by the inner cylinder f2 and circulates the liquid in the vessel. A ring of inclined separator plates r is mounted in the annular chamber m in order to separate very fine sulphur droplets. Devices are provided for measuring the differential pressure between the gas and water phases and the water and sulphur phases. Regulating devices maintain a constant water level o and phase boundary surface k and regulate the outflow of the separated liquids. Sulphur paste is introduced through valved nozzle h and the suspended sulphur melts as the paste heats up, molten sulphur being withdrawn through line 1 and water through pipe p. <IMAGE>
