Title:
METHOD OF TREATING ALKALI AQUEOUS SOLUTION OF SALT OF ANTHRAQUINONE DISULFONIC ACID
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS5724620
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
In the scrubbing of gases containing sulfur compounds with an aqueous alkaline solution of salts of anthraquinonedisulfonic acid, alkali sulfates are formed during a salt regeneration step, and these sulfates must be kept under a certain upper limit. This is accomplished by subjecting a partial stream of scrubbing solution to combustion under reducing conditions; however, thiosulfate is also removed, resulting ultimately in the decomposition of the anthraquinonedisulfonates. To overcome this drawback, the liquid product withdrawn from the combustion step is contacted with an oxygen-containing gas to convert alkali sulfides and/or alkali hydrogen sulfides contained therein to alkali thiosulfate, preferably in the presence of a catalytic amount of said salts of anthraquinonedisulfonic acid.
