The
Technology
The 'Omni-Drop' process employs readily available technology and equipment that has many worldwide applications. Among them are the forming of food products, industrial chemicals, and elemental sulphur. With respect to elemental sulphur, the Omni-Drop process is used extensively around the world whereby molten elemental sulphur is refined and scrubbed out of sour natural gas. The molten sulphur then needs to be formed so it can be transported around the world for a variety of uses; primarily for making sulphuric acid for use in producing phosphate fertilizers as well as a variety of other chemical processes. This Omni-Drop process, though not uncommon for forming elemental sulphur, is uncommon (particularly outside of North America) for making a useable fertilizer product. Elemental sulphur pastilles or flakes alone make a very poor fertilizer, but with the ability to add other materials such as bentonite and micronutrients to the sulphur it can make an extremely effective fertilizer. The most redeeming features of the Omni-Drop technology are as follows: • The equipment is inexpensive • The equipment is portable • Raw material is typically inexpensive • Product quality is exceptional • Products can be produced in a very environmentally friendly manner,    and conforming to the trend of 'controlled release' (US EPA, Europe) • The plants have few environmental or occupational health and safety    risks associated with them • Manufacturing locations can be 'cookie cutter' facilities, easily duplicated.    Assembled plants are also semi-portable & easy to relocate if necessary ![]() Click Here To View A Diagram The process is divided into four distinct stages: a) Raw materials handling: b) Mixing of liquid sulphur and bentonite and other metals if desired: c) Granulation with the Omni-Drop process: d) Storage, packaging, and shipping: |
