Sulphur extracted from oil, Canada
Sulphur extracted from oil. Aerial photograph of stores of sulphur (yellow) that have been extracted from crude oil and bitumen. This is the Syncrude oil processing plant, in the Athabasca Oil Sands, Alberta, Canada. Syncrude began operating in the 1970s. As of 2008, it is the worlds largest producer of crude oil from oil sands, extracting hundreds of thousands of barrels a day, with large amounts of sulphur as a byproduct. One of the open pit mine sites, where the oil sands are extracted, is in the background

EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph captures the immense stores of sulphur extracted from crude oil and bitumen at the Syncrude oil processing plant in Alberta, Canada. The vibrant yellow hue of the sulphur stands out against the industrial landscape, showcasing the scale of production at one of the world's largest crude oil producers. Syncrude has been operating since the 1970s and has become a significant player in extracting crude oil from oil sands. With its advanced technological processes, it extracts hundreds of thousands of barrels per day while generating substantial amounts of sulphur as a byproduct. In this image, we see one of Syncrude's open pit mine sites in the background where massive quantities of oil sands are excavated for processing. This photo not only highlights Canada's rich energy resources but also sheds light on our reliance on nonrenewable fossil fuels as an essential energy source. The presence of this storage area filled with sulphur serves as a reminder that every step towards meeting our energy needs comes with environmental consequences. As we navigate through the 21st century, it is crucial to strike a balance between industrial progress and sustainable practices to safeguard our environment for future generations. This remarkable image was captured by Science Photo Library, offering us a glimpse into Canada's booming energy industry without mentioning any commercial use or specific company involved.
