Title: Process for removing hydrogen sulphide from process gases using solid acceptors, process for cyclic regenerating the used acceptors at high temperature, as well as process for preparing acceptors, which are suitable for this process

Patent ·
OSTI ID:5866642

An acceptor of MnO /SUB x/ or iron oxide, wherein x has a value of from 1 to 1.5, supported on a (y)-alumina carrier which may contain silica, is used to remove hydrogen sulfide from process gases. The acceptor is regenerated with steam in a reducing atmosphere at a temperature of from 300/sup 0/ C. to 700/sup 0/ C.
