ABSTRACT:
The hydrogen sulfide concentration of a gas is reduced by reacting hydrogen sulfide in the gas with oxygen in the presence of raw oil shale. The ratio of sulfur dioxide to sulfur produced by this reaction depends upon the molar ratio of oxygen to hydrogen sulfide present. Sulfur is the predominant product when hydrogen sulfide is reacted in the presence of oil shale with less than about 1 mole of oxygen for each 2 moles of hydrogen sulfide.
