Sulfur Aerosol - Formation and Elimination?

[chiukee]

Hello,
I would like to know if the someone has experience of sulfur aerosols. I'm looking to regenerate a catalyst (340 °C) whereby sulfur is formed (ca. 3 wt% in gas). If I were to quench the hot gas with water, I assume sulfur aerosol will be formed. Does anyone know to what extent? How best can the sulfur aerosol be treated before discharge into the atmosphere?

Thanks for your help!

You have to burn it in an special burner, at very high temperature (around 1200 °C) in presence of an oxigen flow. You will get solid Sulphur and H20. For refences, check Claus reaction. Other information about Claus and SRU are available at
