- Chinese sulphuric acid production and exports - China’s acid production continues to grow as new smelters come on-stream. But high domestic demand from phosphate production as export restrictions are lifted and a shortage of copper concentrate may limit the potential for acid exports.
- A history of sulphur forming - Over the years, various forming processes have been developed to try and minimise dust formation and produce the strongest, most resilient formed sulphur particles.
- How does inventory change influence sulphur availability and pricing? - Sulphur inventory plays a necessary role in balancing the sulphur market but exactly when, where, how and why inventory enters the market can trigger a diverse range of price responses. Peter Harrison of CRU provides this latest sulphur market insight.
- The Sulphur Conference at 40 - This year will be the 40th Sulphur - now Sulphur + Sulphuric Acid - Conference to be held. A look back at some of the past Sulphur Conferences.
