PROCESS FOR REMOVAL OF SULFUR COMPOUNDS FROM GASES

摘要

Process for removal of sulfur compounds from gases Process for removal of sulfur compounds from gases by passing the gases over an absorption mass which, on an inert support having a specific surface area of more than 10 m2 per g, contains metal oxides which react with hydrogen sulfide to give metal-sulfur compounds and at least 20% by weight of which metal oxides are present in finely divided form with a particle size of less than 40 nm. The gases are passed at a temperature of 5 to 800.degree.C over the support loaded with metal oxide, and the resultant support loaded with metal-sulfur compounds is regenerated by passing gases containing oxidising agents over it.
