ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This invention relates to a method and apparatus for the insitu melting and removal of liquid sulphur from a solid free-standing sulphur storage block. A row of horizontal bores is drilled into the block adjacent the base of the block and elongated heat exchange tubes are inserted into these bores to provide a horizontal array of such tubes. A weir is provided adjacent the base of the block to enable a layer of molten sulphur to be retained in contact with the heating elements, and heat is supplied to the tubes to cause sulphur in contact with the tubes to melt and to form this molten layer, means being provided to remove the molten sulphur at a rate suitable for maintaining the liquid layer in contact with the tubes.
