Large quantities of sulphur are transported, stored, handled & comsumed as an additive in cement industry. Various storage methods are required to ensure that the sulphur is not contaminated & it doesn't damage equipment from corrosion, fires, etc. The stored sulphur usually exist in larger pieces & posses many sharp edges due to irregularity in shapes which can be easily broken into its smaller particles.

Factors affecting losses of sulphur during its storage & handling:

Being a brittle material, sulphur is easily degraded during its handling procedures. Minimum Losses will occur during the loading/unloading, transportation of sulphur due to the creation of airborne dust. The losses that occurs during its handling depends upon the following factors:

·Form of sulphur being handled
·Ambient Environmental conditions (i.e. wind speed and direction)
·Handling procedures/methods
·Exposure to air, sunlight and rain
