ABSTRACT:
The disclosure relates to a process for the continuous dearsenification of polyphosphoric acid with the aid of hydrogen sulfide in a gas admission zone. To this end, the disclosure provides for the acid to be dearsenified in a gas admission zone subdivided so as to comprise at least two separate liquid matter-receiving zones, each zone being separated from the other by means of a separate gas zone; for the liquid in each of the liquid matter-receiving zones to be maintained at a level 0.1 up to 10 cm high, without admission of gas; for hydrogen sulfide which remained unreacted in the individual liquid matter-receiving zones to be collected in the respective gas zone and for it to be finely redispersed in the liquid matter-receiving zone directly upstream of the respective gas zone by allowing the hydrogen sulfide to flow through a plurality of openings into the acid, the latter being delivered from the respective liquid-matter-receiving zone into the next downstream liquid-matter-receiving zone, and introduced thereinto directly below the liquid matter level therein; for precipitated arsenic sulfide to be separated from the acid coming from the lower end of the gas admission zone, and for the filtrate obtained to be freed from gaseous hydrogen sulfide in excess.
