Why visit
Delegates attend CRU's Sulphur + Sulphuric Acid Expoconference to work through the technical and commercial agenda of the sulphur and sulphuric acid chain: acid plant operation and revamps, gas cleaning, catalytic systems, sulphur handling and forming, and the market balances that set sulphur and acid pricing. The programme combines plenary and commercial sessions with an exhibition floor where technology suppliers, licensors and equipment vendors present plant-scale solutions. Berlin's Estrel Hotel keeps sessions, networking and the exhibition under one roof, so delegates can move between technical papers, supplier meetings and informal discussion without transit time. It suits producers, refiners, gas processing operators, fertiliser and metals consumers, licensors and EPC contractors who need current market intelligence and direct access to the companies building and servicing acid capacity.
Why exhibit
Exhibiting puts your technology in front of the owners and operators who specify acid plants, gas cleaning trains, catalysts, sulphur forming and handling equipment, and corrosion-resistant materials. The audience is narrow and qualified: technical managers, plant engineers, procurement leads and commercial teams from acid producers, refiners, smelters, fertiliser producers and engineering contractors. The co-located conference programme keeps delegates on the exhibition floor between sessions, creating repeated contact across the three days rather than a single pass-by. CRU's sponsorship and exhibition packages, together with the published floorplan and sponsor listing, give partners clear visibility in front of this specialist buying group.

Payments and currency
Germany uses the euro (EUR). Card payments are widely accepted in hotels and restaurants, but some smaller venues remain cash-preferred, so carry a small amount of cash for taxis and casual purchases. Tipping around 5-10 percent is standard for table service.

Frequently asked
Glossary
- Expoconference
- CRU's format for this event, combining a technical and commercial conference programme with a co-located exhibition of sulphur and sulphuric acid technology and services.
- Sulphuric acid plant
- An industrial facility that converts sulphur dioxide, typically from sulphur burning or metallurgical off-gas, into sulphuric acid through catalytic conversion and absorption.

- A project to upgrade an existing sulphuric acid plant for higher capacity, better energy recovery or tighter emission limits, often involving new catalysts, heat exchangers or gas cleaning stages.
- Gas cleaning
- Upstream treatment of smelter or roaster off-gas, including scrubbing and cooling, to remove impurities before gas enters the acid plant conversion train.
- Sulphur forming
- Conversion of liquid sulphur into solid, transportable shapes such as prills, granules, pastilles or blocks for storage and shipping.
- Sulphur recovery unit (SRU)
- A unit in refining and gas processing that recovers elemental sulphur from hydrogen sulphide streams, typically using the Claus process.
- Catalyst
- The material, commonly vanadium-based, that drives the conversion of sulphur dioxide to sulphur trioxide in the contact process of an acid plant.
