Coating of components of sulfur absorbants

摘要

Provided is an improved process for removing hydrogen sulfide from fluid streams by contacting hydrogen sulfide contaminated fluid streams with a novel composition comprising zinc oxide and a diatomite material coated with a colloidal oxide. Additionally, a novel method for producing a composition comprising the steps of coating a diatomite material with a colloidal oxide solution followed by mixing the thus coated diatomite material with zinc oxide to form a paste is further provided.
