ABSTRACT:
There is provided a method for converting sulfur dioxide in an exhaust gas to sulfur, which comprises the reduction step of reducing sulfur dioxide in an exhaust gas containing water vapor to hydrogen sulfide in the presence of carbon, a part of the exhaust gas is caused to bypass the reduction step and the remainder of the exhaust gas is fed to the reduction step to convert sulfur dioxide in the exhaust gas to hydrogen sulfide; the gas from the reduction step is mixed with the exhaust gas bypassing the reduction step while controlling the amount of the bypassing exhaust gas so that the ratio of hydrogen sulfide to sulfur dioxide in the mixed gas is maintained at 2; the mixed gas is fed to the Claus reaction step; and the Claus reaction step of reacting hydrogen sulfide formed at the reduction step with sulfur dioxide to convert hydrogen sulfide to sulfur.
