Study on hydrogen sulfide removal based on bench-scale experiment by bio-trickling filter

A bench-scale experiment for control of hydrogen sulfide （H2S） emissions was carried out continuously for nearly four months by using bio-trickling filter packed with ZX01 stuffing. The results suggested that the bio-trickling filter had proven excellent performance over substantial operational periods. Removal efficiency of H2S was nearly 100% when volumetric loading of the bio-trickling filter varied from 0.64 g/（m^3·h） to 38.20 g/（m^3·h） and metabolism products of H2S were mainly composed of SO4^2-. When inlet concentration of H2S was 250 mg/m^3, the optimum gas retention time was 30 s and the optimum spray water flow rate was 0.005 9-0.012 L/（cm^2·h）. The bio-trickling filter had good ability to resist shock of high volumetric loading, and was not blocked during experiments for nearly four months during which resistance was maintained at relatively lower value, so that the bio-trickling filter need not carry out back washing frequently and can be operated steadily for long-term.

Enhanced sulfidization flotation of cuprite by surface modification with hydrogen peroxide

Hydrogen peroxide was used as an oxidant to modify the cuprite surface and enhance its sulfidization.Surface-adsorption and infrared spectroscopy measurements indicated that the modification of the cuprite surface with hydrogen peroxide before sulfidization increased the adsorption capacity of xanthate.Zeta potential,scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy,X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy,and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry results showed that the modification with hydrogen peroxide increased the contents of S^(2−)and Sn^(2−)species on the cuprite surface.Microflotation tests showed that the recovery of cuprite increased from 61.74%to 83.30%after the modification of the surface with hydrogen peroxide.These results confirm that the modification of the cuprite surface with hydrogen peroxide enhances the sulfidization of cuprite,which in turn improves its flotation.

Reactions of Group V Metal Atoms with Hydrogen Sulfide： Argon Matrix Infrared Spectra and Theoretical Calculations

The reaction of laser-ablated vanadium, niobium and tantalum atoms with hydrogen sulfide has been investigated using matrix isolation FTIR and theoretical calculations. The metal atoms inserted into the H-S bond of H2S to form the HMSH molecules （M=V, Nb, Ta）, which rearranged to H2MS molecules on annealing for Nb and Ta. The HMSH molecule can also further react with another H2S to form the H2M（SH）2 molecules. These new molecules were identified on the basis of the D2S and H234S isotopic substitutions. DFT （B3LYP and BPW91） theoretical calculations are used to predict energies, geometries, and vibrational frequencies for these novel metal dihydrido complexes and molecules. Reaction mechanism for formation of group V dihydrido complex was investigated by DFT internal reaction coordinate calculations. The dissociation of HVSH gave VS＋H2 on broad band irradiation and reverse reaction happened on annealing. Based on B3LYP calculation releasing hydrogen from HVSH is endothermic only by 13.5 kcal/mol with lower energy barrier of 16.9 kcal/mol.

Purification of Sulfuric and Hydriodic Acids Phases in the Iodine-sulfur Process

Iodine-sulfur （IS） thermochemical water-splitting cycle is the most promising massive hydrogen production process. To avoid the undesirable side reactions between hydriodic acid（HI） and sulfuric acid （H2SO4）, it is necessary to purify the two phases formed by the Bunsen reaction. The purification process could be achieved by reverse reaction of the Bunsen reaction. In this study, the purification of the H2SO4 and HI Phases was studied. The purification proceeded in both batches and the continuous mode, the influences of operational parameters, including the reaction temperature, the flow rate of nitrogen gas, and the composition of the raw material solutions, on the purification effect, were investigated. Results showed that the purification of the H2SO4 phase was dominantly-affected by the reaction temperature, and iodine ion in the sulfuric acid phase could be removed completely when the temperature was above 130℃; although, the purification effect of the HI phase improved with increasing of both the flow rate of nitrogen gas and temperature.

ZIF-67 derived CoSx/NC catalysts for selective reduction of nitro compounds

Transition metal sulfides(TMSs)-based materials have been extensively investigated as effective non-noble catalysts for various applications.However,the exploration of TMSs-based catalysts for hydrogenation of nitro compounds is limited.Herein,CoSx/NC catalysts were prepared by solvothermal sulfurization of ZIF-67,followed by high-temperature annealing(300–600℃)under NH3 atmosphere.It was found that the structures and compositions of the as-prepared CoSx/NC can be readily tuned by varying the annealing temperature.Particularly,CoSx/NC-500,which possesses higher degree of S defects and larger specific surface areas,can achieve high conversion,selectivity and stability for catalytic reduction of nitro compounds into amines under mild reaction conditions.

Cyanide removal for ultrafine gold cyanide residues by chemical oxidation methods

Because of the highly toxic cyanide in the gold cyanide residues,cyanide must be removed for environmental protection.The process mineralogy of residues was studied firstly,and then cyanide removal was carried out by three chemical methods.The results showed that the residue mainly contained Si,S and Fe.Pyrite was the main metallic mineral,and the iron-complex cyanides make cyanide removal difficult.The minerals in residues were in ultrafine particle size with high monomer dissociation degrees.In H_(2)O_(2)oxidation process,the self-decomposition and side reactions resulted in high consumption of H_(2)O_(2).In Na_(2)S_(2)O_(5)-air oxidation process,the time for complete process was long because of the reactions between Na_(2)S_(2)O_(5)and O_(2).Na_(2)SO_(3)oxidation method was found to be a new method for cyanide removal without air inflation device.The cyanide content was reduced to the national standard level in 90 min at pH 9.0 with optimum Na_(2)SO_(3)dose of 2.0 g/L.

Effect of the surface properties of an activated coke on its desulphurization performance

Commercial coke was modified by H2O2 and/or NH3.H2O to obtain an activated coke containing additional oxygen functional groups and/or nitrogen functional groups. The aim of the modification was to enhance the SO2 adsorption capacity of the activated coke. Several techniques, including total nitrogen content measurements, SO2 adsorption, XPS and FTIR analysis, were used to characterize the coke samples. The XPS and FTIR spectra suggest the existence of -CONH2 groups in the H2O2 plus ammonia modified coke. The SO2 adsorption capacity of an activated coke increases slightly with an increase in H2O2 concentration during the modification process. The desulphurization performance of a modified coke is considerably enhanced by increasing the treatment temperature during ammonia modification. The amount of nitrogen in a coke modified by H2O2 plus NH3.H2O is the highest, and the SO2 adsorption capacity of the coke is also the highest (89.9 mg/gC). The NH3.H2O (only) modified sample has lower nitrogen content and lower desulphurization capacity (79.9 mg/gC). H2O modification gives the lowest SO2 adsorption capacity (28.9 mg/gC). The H2O2 pre-treatment is beneficial for the introduction of nitrogen onto the surface of a sample during the following ammonia treatment process.

Strategies to improve electrocatalytic and photocatalytic performance of two-dimensional materials for hydrogen evolution reaction

Two-dimensional materials(2D)with unique physicochemical properties have been widely studied for their use in many applications,including as hydrogen evolution catalysts to improve the efficiency of water splitting.Recently,typical 2D materials MoS2,graphene,MXenes,and black phosphorus have been widely investigated for their application in the hydrogen evolution reaction(HER).In this review,we summarize three efficient strategies—defect engineering,heterostructure formation,and heteroatom doping—for improving the HER performance of 2D catalysts.The d-band theory,density of states,and Fermi energy level are discussed to provide guidance for the design and construction of novel 2D materials.The challenges and prospects of 2D materials in the HER are also considered.

Oxidative Desulfurization of Diesel Fuel with Hydrogen Peroxide Using Na_2WO_4 as Catalyst

Oxidative desulfurization was performed on Na2WO4 catalyst in the presence of hydrogen peroxide and acetic acid under mild reaction conditions （atmospheric pressure and temperature range of 293--343 K）. Different organic compounds including benzothiophene （BT）, dibenzothiophene （DBT）, 4, 6-dimethyl dibenzothiophene （4, 6-DMDBT） were used to investigate the reactivity of this catalyst, and the effect of various parameters, such as temperature, solvents and the amount of oxidant reagent used in oxidative desulfurization reaction, was also examined. The results showed that the Na2WO4- H202 system was very effective for oxidative desulfurization, and the oxidation of BT, DBT and 4, 6-DMDBT was influenced by different parameters.

Comparative Study on Oxidative Desulfurization of FCC Gasoline by Ce^(4+) Compound and H_2O_2

This article describes two kinds of model oil samples made of a benzothiophene/octane mixture and a 2-me- thylthiophene/octane mixture. Furthermore, this paper investigates the oxidative desulfurization selectivity and reaction efficiency when Ce4+ compound and H2O2 having identical electron equivalent weight were used as oxidants. The test re- sults showed that the two kinds of oxidants were more effective to remove benzothiophene in the model oil samples. For oxidative desulfurization of 2-methylthiophene, Ce4+ compound was obviously superior than H2O2. This paper by means of quantum chemistry analyses elaborates the complex formed between Ce4+ species and 2-methylthiophene and FT-IR spec- trograms of model oil samples before and after oxidation by Ce4+ compound and H2O2, respectively. The results demonstrat- ed that Ce4+ compound could remove sulfur compounds not only through oxidation reaction but also through complexation reaction.

Catalytic Oxidative Desulfurization of Gasoline Using Vanadium(V)-substituted Polyoxometalate/H_2O_2/Ionic Liquid Emulsion System

Aiming at deep desulfurization of gasoline,three amphiphilic catalysts [C18H37N(CH3)3]3+x [PMo12-xVxO40](x=1,2,or 3) were prepared and characterized.The amphiphilic vanadium(V)-substituted polyoxometalates were dissolved in water-immiscible ionic liquid([Bmim]PF6),forming a H2O2-in-[Bmim]PF6 emulsion desulfurization system with 30 m% H2O2 serving as the oxidant.The catalytic oxidation of sulfur-containing model oil has been studied in detail under various reaction conditions using this system.The ionic liquid emulsion system showed high catalytic oxidative activity in the treatment of commodity gasoline.Furthermore,the mechanism of catalytic oxidative desulfurization was also elaborated.

Simultaneous desulfurization and denitrogen of liquid fuels using two functionalized group ionic liquids

Deep desulfurization of liquid fuels is an important and challenging issue in worldwide petroleum refining industry.Extraction and catalytic oxidative desulfurization(ECODS)of liquid fuels using a series of ionic liquids(ILs)with two functionalized groups,such as[(CH2)2COOHmim]Cl/n Fe Cl3,[(CH2)2COOHmim]Cl/n Zn Cl2,and[Amim]Cl/n Fe Cl3,was studied.In the ECODS,the ILs were used as both extractant and catalyst and 30 wt%hydrogen peroxide(H2O2)solution as oxidant.The effects of molar ratios of[(CH2)2COOHmim]Cl(or[Amim]Cl)to Fe Cl3(or Zn Cl2)in ILs,H2O2/sulfur(O/S)molar ratio,reaction temperature,and the nature of sulfur compounds on sulfur removal were investigated.The natures of the functional groups(–COOH,–CH2–CH=CH2)in cations and the acid strength of anions play important roles in the ECODS and affect the reaction time,temperature,and desulfurization efficiency of different substrates.Also,nitrogen-containing compounds(pyridine,pyrrole,and quinoline)could be removed simultaneously in the ECODS and had different effects on dibenzothiophene removal.

Performance of biotrickling filters for hydrogen sulfide removal under starvation and shock loads conditions

In the industrial operation of biotrickling filters for hydrogen sulfide(H2S) removal,shock loads or starvation was common due to process variations or equipment malfunctions.In this study,effects of starvation and shock loads on the performance of biotrickling filters for H2S removal were investigated.Four experiments were conducted to evaluate the changes of biomass and viable bacteria numbers in the biotrickling filters during a 24-d starvation.Compared to biomass,viable bacteria numbers decreased significantly during the starvation,especially when airflow was maintained in the absence of spray liquid.During the subsequent re-acclimation,all the bioreactors could resume high removal efficiencies within 4 d regardless of the previous starvation conditions.The results show that the re-acclimation time,in the case of biotrickling filters for H2S removal,is mainly controlled by viable H2S oxidizing bacteria numbers.On the other hand,the biotrickling filters can protect against shock loads in inlet fluctuating H2S concentration after resuming normal operation.When the biotrickling filters were supplied with H2S at an input of lower than 1700 mg/m3,their removal efficiencies were nearly 98% regardless of previous H2S input.

A quantum chemistry study on reaction mechanisms of SO_2 with O_3 and H_2O_2

Reaction mechanisms of SO2 with O3 and H2O2 were investigated using quantum chemistry ab initio methods. Structures of all reactants, products, and transition states were optimized at the B3LYP/6-311G＋（3df,2p） level, and energy calculations were made at the G2M level. SO2 reactions with O3 and H2O2 occurred by O-abstraction and OH-abstraction by SO2, respectively, at length forming SO3＋O2 （3Eg） and H2SO4. For SO2＋O3 reactions the barrier height was predicted to be 9.68 kcal/mol with a rate constant of 3.61 × 10^-23 cm^3/（molecule.s） at 300 K, which is below the experimental upper limit. The rate constant predicted for this reaction accords well with the one provided by National Institute for Standards and Technology （NIST） in 250-500 K. For SO2＋H2O2 reactions the barrier height was predicted to be 62.39 kcal/mol with a rate constant of 2.48× 10^-61 cm^3/（molecule.s） at 300 K.

Kinetic study on hydrolysis and oxidation of formamidine disulfide in acidic solutions

Hydrolysis and oxidation of formamidine disulfide in acidic medium were investigated using high-performance liquid chro- matography （HPLC） and mass spectrometry （MS） at 25 ~C. By controlling the slow reaction rate and choosing appropriate mobile phase, HPLC provides the unique advantages over other methods （UV-Vis, chemical separation） in species tracking and kinetic study. In addition to thiourea and formamidine sulfinic acid, two unreported products were also detected in the hy- drolysis reaction. Mass spectrometry measurement indicates these two products to be formamidine sulfenic acid and thiocyan- ogen with mass weights of 92.28 and 116,36, respectively. In the oxidation of formamidine disulfide by hydrogen peroxide, besides thiourea, formamidine sulfenic acid, formamidine sulfinic acid, thiocyanogen and urea, formamidine sulfonic acid and sulfate could be detected. The oxidation reaction was found to be first order in both forrnamidine disulfide and hydrogen per- oxide. The rate constants of hydrolysis and oxidation reactions were determined in the pH range of 1.5-3.0. It was found both rate constants are increased with the increasing of pH. Experimental curves of different species can be effectively simulated via a mechanism scheme for formamidine disulfide oxidation, including hydrolysis equilibrium of formamidine disulfide and irre- versible hydrolysis of formamidine sulfenic acid.
