SulfoTreat S & R

Catalytic Solutions for Sulphite & Sulphide Control in Process Streams

Elevated sulphite and sulphide levels can create significant challenges across distillery, sugar processing, and industrial water systems. Sulphite in syrup or molasses can inhibit microbial activity and disturb fermentation stability, while sulphide contamination in water can lead to odour, turbidity, colour formation, and microbial imbalance.

Effective control of these contaminants is therefore important for maintaining fermentation efficiency, improving water quality, and supporting safe reuse of process streams.

SulfoTreat S & R are catalytic formulations developed for targeted sulphur contaminant reduction. SulfoTreat-S reduces sulphite concentration in sugar syrup and molasses without adversely affecting sugar concentration or key syrup parameters, while SulfoTreat-R reduces sulphide levels in industrial water and wastewater through catalytic oxidation, supporting improved water quality and reuse.

FAQ's

What is the difference between SulfoTreat-S and SulfoTreat-R?

SulfoTreat-S is formulated to reduce sulphite toxicity in syrup and molasses before fermentation, whereas SulfoTreat-R is designed to reduce sulphide levels in industrial water, condensate, lagoon water, and cooling tower systems for improved water quality and reuse.

Does SulfoTreat-S affect syrup quality, and how effective is it at sulphite removal?

SulfoTreat-S selectively removes sulphite without adversely affecting sugar concentration or key syrup quality parameters. Under recommended operating conditions, it can achieve 70–100% sulphite removal, depending on the initial sulphite concentration and process conditions.

What business benefits can a distillery expect from using SulfoTreat?

SulfoTreat helps improve fermentation consistency, supports higher ethanol recovery, reduces sulphite-related process losses, and enables better utilization of existing fermentation assets, contributing to improved overall plant economics.
