ABSTRACT:
A fuel gas is desulfurized while hot by contact with a molten alkali salt. The salt is regenerated for further use by contact with a recirculating gas stream. The H.sub.2 S and COS picked up by the recirculating gas stream is scrubbed at low temperature in an aqueous alkaline salt scrub system such as hot potash. H.sub.2 S regenerated from the low temperature alkaline scrub system is subsequently converted to sulfur. By combining both high temperature and low temperature alkali scrubbing in a single dual temperature dual alkali (DTDA) process, the best advantages of both scrub techniques are retained whereas the serious disadvantages of molten salt scrubbing are eliminated.
