I've worked in it for a few years and haven't yet seen any sulphur.
All fossil fuels contain sulphur, at least to some extent. Oil that has a high level of sulphur is called 'sour' crude, as opposed to 'sweet' crude which has a low sulphur level. Natural gas can also be 'sweet' or 'sour'. Sulphur in natural gas is usually present as the poisonous gas hydrogen sulphide, and it is usually removed from natural gas as it emerges from the ground. In remote regions like northern Canada or Kazakhstan its storage can be a problem. On the other hand, oil is processed at refineries, often a long way from the source of the oil, and the sulphur is used in various industrial processes. High sulphur concentrations are also found in oil or tar sands such as are found in northern Canada and Venezuela. Coal also contains sulphur, but being a solid it is difficult to extract using conventional technologies. High-sulphur coal used to produce a lot of sulphur dioxide when it was burned, which formed sulphuric acid in the air, leading to acid rain, but nowadays the waste gases are 'scrubbed' of sulphur using a limestone wash, and the mineral gypsum is formed, which is used in plasterboard and other building materials.
Coal and oli contain sulphur. When either one burns, it produces sulphur dioxide. The sulphur dioxide gradually turns into sulphur trioxide which mixes with rain and becomes acid rain. It is easy to remove the sulphur in refineries or power plants.
yes celecoxib etoricoxib and pofecoxib (these three COX-2 inhibitor) drugs contain sulphur.
No, sulfites do not contain iodine. Sulfites are a group of chemical compounds containing sulfur and oxygen often used as preservatives in foods and beverages, while iodine is a separate chemical element found in nature and used in some disinfectants and medications.

No. All acids contain Hydrogen. That is the only component they have in common.
Some petroleum fuels such as Bunker C or heavy diesel contain significant amounts of sulphidic compounds and some natural fuel gases are known as sour when they contain hydrogen sulfide. In both of these cases when the fuels are burned they will produce sulphur dioxide. In automotive diesel there is a small amount of sulphur. This, because of the combustion conditions, is not released as sulpur dioxide, but as solid sulfate particulate. Fuels which contain no sulphur (refined and treaterd by sulphur removal) do not give off sulphur dioxide.
Natural gas
Sulphuric acid (H2SO4), Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S) and Sulphur dioxide (SO2). Also Cysteine, an amino acid.
No, hydrochloric acid (HCl) does not contain sulfur. It is a compound made up of hydrogen and chlorine atoms.
I'm trying to find out. hope this helps. O.
Sulphur dioxide is not intentionally added to whiskey as an ingredient. However, during the fermentation and aging process, small amounts of sulphur compounds may be naturally produced. Some distilleries may also use sulphur candles to sanitize barrels, which can lead to traces of sulphur dioxide in the final product.
All proteins contain carbon, oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen. Some also contain sulphur in the amino acids Methionine and Cysteine.
Sodium sulphate has the chemical formula ' Na2SO4'. This tells us that it contains;- 2 atoms of sodium (Na ; Nadium) 1 atom of sulphur (S) 4 atoms of oxygen (O) So yes!!! It does contain sulphur.
Yes, heparin does contain sulfur. It is a sulfated glycosaminoglycan that is composed of repeating disaccharide units, some of which contain sulfate groups.
