Abstract

Sulfur is a key element in most anionic surfactants. About 75% of sulfur currently is generated as a waste byproduct of petroleum refining, while most of the remainder is generated as a waste byproduct of natural gas refining. Assuming the world's fossil fuel use decreases in the future, what will happen with sulfur-containing surfactants? Three possible alternatives are explored. First, alternate sources of sulfur could replace sulfur from fossil fuel. Second, surfactants that do not contain sulfur could replace those that contain sulfur. Third, other industries could replace sulfur in their products, while sulfur remains in surfactants. Each of these will be considered, and predictions will be made in terms of the likeliest outcomes.

硫:表面活性剂生产关键元素的长期展望
硫是大多数阴离子表面活性剂的关键元素。目前,约 75% 的硫是石油提炼过程中产生的废弃副产品,其余大部分是天然气提炼过程中产生的废弃副产品。假设未来全球化石燃料使用量减少,含硫表面活性剂将如何发展?本文探讨了三种可能的替代方案。首先,硫的替代来源可以取代化石燃料中的硫。第二,不含硫的表面活性剂可以取代含硫的表面活性剂。第三,其他行业可以替代其产品中的硫,而硫仍然存在于表面活性剂中。我们将考虑上述每一种情况,并对最有可能出现的结果进行预测。
