PhD-thesis Wageningen University, Wageningen, The Netherlands – with references – with summaries in English and Dutch ISBN: 978-90-8504-787-2 Abstract Due to increasingly stringent environmental legislation car fuels have to be desulfurized to levels below 10 ppm in order to minimize negative effects on the environment as sulfur-containing emissions contribute to acid deposition (‘acid rain’) and to reduce the amount of particulates formed during the burning of the fuel. Moreover, low sulfur specifications are also needed to lengthen the lifetime of car exhaust catalysts.

  • Removal of Hydrogen Sulfide from Landfill Gas Using a Solar Regenerable Adsorbent
    Removal of Hydrogen Sulfide from Landfill Gas Using a Solar Regenerable Adsorbent by Sreevani Kalapala Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in the Chemistry Program YOUNGSTOWN STATE UNIVERSITY May, 2014 Removal of Hydrogen Sulfide from Landfill Gas Using A Solar Regenerable Adsorbent Sreevani Kalapala I hereby release this thesis to the public. I understand that this thesis will be made available from the OhioLINK ETD Center and the Maag Library Circulation Desk for public access. I also authorize the University or other individuals to make copies of this thesis as needed for scholarly research. Signature: Sreevani Kalapala, Student Date Approvals: Dr. Clovis A. Linkous, Thesis Advisor Date Dr. Daryl Mincey, Committee Member Date Dr. Sherri Lovelace-Cameron, Committee Member Date Dr. Salvatore A. Sanders, Associate Dean of Graduate Studies Date ABSTRACT: Landfill gas is a complex mix of gases, containing methane, carbon dioxide, nitrogen and hydrogen sulfide (H2S), created by the action of microorganisms within the landfill. The gas can be collected and flared off or used to produce electricity. However, the H2S content, which may vary from 10’s to 1000’s of ppm, can cause irreversible damage to equipment, and when combusted creates SO2, a precursor of acid rain. It is also a toxic eye and lung irritant, so that prolonged exposure must be kept below a few ppm. Therefore, H2S must be removed before landfill gas can be utilized. Our approach is to scrub H2S into aqueous media and then use an adsorbent to sequester it. The adsorbent is then regenerated in a photocatalytic reaction potentially using sunlight.

  • Method 9215: Potentiometric Determination of Sulfide in Aqueous Samples and Distillates with Ion-Selective Electrode, Part of Te
    METHOD 9215 POTENTIOMETRIC DETERMINATION OF SULFIDE IN AQUEOUS SAMPLES AND DISTILLATES WITH ION-SELECTIVE ELECTRODE 1.0 SCOPE AND APPLICATION 1.1 This method can be used for measuring total sulfide in a distilled sample. The method is meant to be used as an alternate determinative step following the distillation in either SW- 846 Methods 9030 or 9031. 1.2 This method must not be used for undistilled samples because of possible mercury and silver ion interferences. Also, the ISE only responds to free sulfide dianion and will not detect sulfide in complexes. Therefore, this method would provide low recoveries for undistilled samples. 1.3 The method detection limit is 1.0 mg/L. Sulfide concentrations from 0.1 to 12,000 mg/L may be measured. However, when a linear calibration is used, results less than 1 mg/L may be biased up to approximately 90 percent low. 2.0 SUMMARY OF METHOD 2.1 The distillations in Methods 9030 and/or 9031 are performed, except that the scrubber solution is sulfide anti-oxidant buffer (SAOB), with ascorbic and salicylic acids added as oxygen scavengers. The distillates are then analyzed potentiometrically using a sulfide ion-selective electrode (ISE) in conjunction with a double-junction reference electrode and a pH meter with an expanded millivolt scale or an ISE meter capable of being calibrated directly in terms of sulfide concentration. 2.2 This method is an alternative to the iodometric titration procedure, where a solution of thiosulfate is standardized against the thiosulfate solution, and the sulfide standard is standardized against the iodine solution/thiosulfate solution (which requires daily calibration itself).

The solution is typically yellow to dark green and has a rotten-egg odor due to the Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) content. The product strength ranges from 20% to 45% by weight and weighs 9 to 11 pounds per gallon (specific gravity from 1.13 to 1.30 g/cm3). Solutions of NaHS are considered stable in normal transportation. The vapor space over NaHS solutions contains highly toxic Hydrogen Sulfide gas. The Hydrogen Sulfide gas is colorless and it is heavier than air. It will remain close to the ground and collect in low lying areas. The amount of Hydrogen Sulfide gas evolved from NaHS solutions is noticeably increased when the pH of the solution is below the pH of 10.2. This hap pens when the solution comes into contact with acidic materials or other materials that have a pH lower than 10.2. Dilution of the material will also create a minimal amount of Hydrogen Sulfide gas due to the lower pH of water coming in contact with the solution.

The forMer t~o cheMicals are environMentally benign and their disposal will have no significant effect on groundwater quality. SodiuM sulfide and bisulfide can 7 however~ have substantial iMpacts on water quality due to their toxicity at Moderate concentrations and their potential for odor generation at extreMely low concentrations. Hence 7 the fate of these cheMicals under norMal environMental conditions is of concern in considering their production and disposal as a result of treatMent of geotherMal steaM. Hydrogen sulfide abateMent froM geotherMal steaM has been accoMplished in Hawaii by the injection of a lOX solution of sodiuM hydroxide into the steaM phase at a Mole ratio of three Moles of sodiuM hydroxide to one Mole of hydrogen sulfide. The pH of the resultant solution will be in the range of 12 to 13 and hence the predoMinant sulfide species in solution will be sodiuM sulfide- Because a quantitative reaction of hydrogen sulfide to sodiuM sulfide ~auld require only two Moles of caustic to one MOle of sulfide~ an excess of caustic will be present that will Maintain the pH at a high level for a substantial period after the scrubber effluent is exposed to atMospheric air. Upon exposure of the sodiuM sulfide solution to air 7 the Most iMportant reaction that will occur is the oxidation of the sodiuM sulfide.

  • Production of Sodium Sulfide Depending on the Local Conditions
    Archive of SID 17th Iranian Chemistry Congress Vali-e-Asr University of Rafsanjan 1-3 september 2014 Production of Sodium Sulfide Depending on the Local Conditions Amir Seraji,* Fatemeh Teimouri Department of Chemistry, Islamic Azad University- Saveh Branch, P. O. box 39187-366, Saveh, Iran. [email protected] Background: Sodium sulfide (Na2S) is the most important and applicable compound among alkali and alkaline earth sulfides. Na2S is used in a process for producing poly (phenylene sulfide) and polysulfide polymers. It also is used in reduction of polynitroaromatics and in engine oils [1]. In the laboratory, anhydrous Na2S can be prepared by reaction of sulfur with sodium in anhydrous ammonia or in dry THF with a catalytic amount of naphthalene [2]: 2 Na + S → Na2S ◦ Industrially Na2S is produced by reduction of sodium sulfate with carbon, in the form of coal at 700- 900 C [3]: Na2SO4 +2C→Na2S+2CO2 Methods: In this research we wish to report optimized process for the synthesis of Na2S using Na2SO4 and coal. Raw materials of the reaction are grinded very well in mortar which pass trough sieve with mesh 100. The mix of Na2SO4 and coal is heated in electrical furnace. After evolution of CO2 and CO begins the reaction mass becomes very fluid on further heating, it becomes pasty and finally solid. The produced sodium sulfide that contains excess carbon, ash components and other solid impurities is leached with water, and the undissolvable components are removed by filtration. The filtrate is concentrated by evaporation and solidifies by cooling. ◦ Results: Optimized weight ratio of Na2SO4 to coal was 3.94:1.
