Ruhollah Nourian said: “We expect to set a new record in sulfur production this year.”

This is a good advantage for all industries that consume sulfur, he said adding: “Sulfur produced in the province has the highest quality in the country and its purity is 99.98%.”

Emphasizing that the sulfur produced by Ilam Gas Refinery is one of the highest quality sulfurs produced in the country, which also has its own customers, he said: “Last calendar year, the trial production line of bentonite fertilizer was launched by the experts of this industrial unit, and now we are seeking the necessary licenses to produce this item. Production of this item can help increase the productivity of agricultural products in the province by 15 to 20%.”
