Yes, steel consists of carbon and iron mainly and usually traces of sulfur. To avoid the deleterious effects of sulfur, manganese is usually added which forms MnS and improves the performance. To make this stainless, chromium at minimum 10% is then added.
Steel is an alloy, not a purified metal; but sometimes the excess of phosphorous, sulfur, carbon etc. in the melt need to be deleted.
For example the steel Fe 500 1586 contain 0,3 % carbon, 0,05 % sulfur, 0,05 % phosphorus.
One if it is pure sulfur. Sulfur is an element so the on atom is sulfur!
S is the chemical formula for Sulfur.
No, sulfur is an element and sulfur dioxide is a gaseous compound. Sulfur dioxide is the combustion product of sulfur in an oxygen atmosphere (S+O2 --> SO2) Where sulfur is an element, sulfur dioxide is a compound and where sulfur is an insoluble yellow solid, sulfur dioxide is a colorless soluble gas.
In its steel industry sulfur emissions and CO2 Exhalant of metallurgy are polluting.
increases the machinability

Carbon: <0,17 % Phosphorous and sulfur: < 0,o4 %
Sulfur decreases ductility and notch impact toughness especially in the transverse direction. Weldability decreases with increasing sulfur content. Sulfur is found primarily in the form of sulfide inclusions. Sulfur levels are normally controlled to low levels. The only exception is free-machining steels, where sulfur is added to improve machinability.
In steel making, a relatively pure form without sulfur is used.
To remove unwanted oxygen and to control sulfur.
The steel wool will burned and turned in black substance.
they help eliminate undesired elements such as oxygen and sulfur; they impart special characteristics, such as heat- and corrosion-resistance and strength; and they neutralize undesirable elements in the steel
440A is a US standard of a martensitic stainless steel. It is known to keep a hard edge but not as tough as some of the other martensitic stainless steel.
I'm not sure that it's a regularly used method, but since iron is magnetic and sulfur isn't, you could use a magnet to pick up the iron filings.
If, for some reason, there were no sulfur in the world at any time:there would be no sulfa drugsthere would be no steel as H2SO4 is an important chemical in steel manufacurefertilizer production would be hamperedgunpwder couldn't have been developed and aside from wars it was essential for construction and miningsome plants and animals would not have their present taste . Garlic's taste results from sulfur compoundsskunks would be unscented as there would be no butyl mercaptanbeeer drinkers who eat pickled egs would be more pleasant to be downwind from.
