Title:
PROCESS FOR REDUCTION OF GASEOUS SULFUR COMPOUNDS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002026356
Kind Code:
B1
Abstract:
A process for the reduction of gaseous sulfur compounds in gaseous streams. The gaseous stream is contacted with a sorber, e.g., zinc oxide, which is capable of sorbing the sulfur compounds under sulfur sorbing conditions. The sorber is present in the form of one or more layers on the surface of a monolith carrier, e.g., cordierite. The layers of the sorber have a total thickness of at least 3 g/in<3> of the carrier. The process is especially useful for the removal of gaseous sulfur compounds such as H2S from gaseous streams.
