A cyclic process for the simultaneous removal of hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide from a variety of gas streams is disclosed. The gas stream containing the sour gases is contacted with a solution of the Fe(III) chelate of nitrilotriacetic acid in an absorbent comprising diethylene glycol monoethyl ether. The hydrogen sulfide is converted to sulfur, the CO2 is absorbed to produce a purified gas stream, and the Fe(III) chelate is converted to the Fe(II) chelate. The process includes sulfur removal and regeneration of the absorbent and the Fe(III) chelate.
