Sulfa-Check® process uses sodium nitrite (NaNO2) in aqueous solution to oxidize H2S to sulfur. This process was developed and patented by NL Treating Chemicals and…
Category: Direct Conversion of H2S to Sulfur
The Institute Francais du Petrole has developed a process for reacting H2S with SO2 to produce water and sulfur. The overall reaction is 2H2S +…
An example of a process using O2 to oxidize H2S is the Stretford® process, which is licensed by the British Gas Corporation. In this process…
The LOCAT® process is a liquid phase oxidation process based on a dilute solution of a proprietary, organically chelated iron in water that converts the…
This process is used to treat gas streams containing high concentrations of H2S. The chemistry of the units involves partial oxidation of hydrogen sulfide to…
The chemical and solvent processes previously discussed remove acid gases from the gas stream but result in a release of H2S and CO2 when the…
