ABSTRACT:
A method of removing hydrogen sulfide from a gaseous stream in a contact zone by contacting the gaseous stream with an aqueous alkaline scrubbing solution containing a polyvalent metal chelate at a pH of about 7 to about 10 wherein the polyvalent metal chelate is in one embodiment all or substantially all in the reduced or lower valence state in a contact zone and is oxidized to the oxidized or higher valence state in an oxidation zone so as to convert hydrosulfide and/or sulfide salts present in the contact zone to sulfur. In a second embodiment the aqueous alkaline solution contacting the gaseous stream is a mixture containing higher and lower valence polyvalent metal chelates.
