  2. Hydrogen sulfide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_sulfide

    Hydrogen sulfide is a chemical compound with the formula H 2 S.It is a colorless chalcogen-hydride gas, and is toxic, corrosive, and flammable, with trace amounts in ambient atmosphere having a characteristic foul odor of rotten eggs. [11]

  3. CrystaSulf - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CrystaSulf

    CrystaSulf is the trade name for a chemical process used for removing hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) from natural gas, synthesis gas and other gas streams in refineries and chemical plants. [1] [2] CrystaSulf uses a modified liquid-phase Claus reaction to convert the hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) into elemental sulfur which is then removed from the ...

  4. Amine gas treating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amine_gas_treating

    In oil refineries, that stripped gas is mostly H 2 S, much of which often comes from a sulfur-removing process called hydrodesulfurization. This H 2 S-rich stripped gas stream is then usually routed into a Claus process to convert it into elemental sulfur. In fact, the vast majority of the 64,000,000 metric tons of sulfur produced worldwide in ...

  5. List of gases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gases

    This list is sorted by boiling point of gases in ascending order, but can be sorted on different values. "sub" and "triple" refer to the sublimation point and the triple point, which are given in the case of a substance that sublimes at 1 atm; "dec" refers to decomposition. "~" means approximately.

  6. Sulfide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfide

    Hydrogen sulfide is a very toxic and corrosive gas characterised by a typical odour of "rotten egg". −85.7: −60.20: 7783-06-4: CdS: Cadmium sulfide can be used in photocells. 1750: 1306-23-6: Calcium polysulfide ("lime sulfur") is a traditional fungicide in gardening. CS 2: Carbon disulfide is a precursor to organosulfur compounds. −111.6 ...

  7. Claus process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claus_process

    In the thermal step, hydrogen sulfide-laden gas reacts in a substoichiometric combustion at temperatures above 850 °C [8] such that elemental sulfur precipitates in the downstream process gas cooler. The H 2 S content and the concentration of other combustible components (hydrocarbons or ammonia) determine the location where the feed gas is ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_chemistry_terms

    Also acid ionization constant or acidity constant. A quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution expressed as an equilibrium constant for a chemical dissociation reaction in the context of acid-base reactions. It is often given as its base-10 cologarithm, p K a. acid–base extraction A chemical reaction in which chemical species are separated from other acids and bases. acid ...

  9. Sulfur-reducing bacteria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur-reducing_bacteria

    Sulfur reduction metabolism is an ancient process, found in the deep branches of the phylogenetic tree. [15] Sulfur reduction uses elemental sulfur (S 0) and generates hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) as the main end product. This metabolism is largely present in extreme environments where, especially in recent years, many microorganisms have been ...
