Zn/Cu SORBENT SYNTHESIS FOR SYN-GAS PURIFICATION FROM HYDROGEN SULFIDE

A novel sorbent tube for ambient hydrogen sulfide determination.

A novel tubular device has been developed for hydrogen sulfide determination in air. Several substrates such as commercial silica gel and alumina TLC plates, silica gel powder, alumina, CaSO(4), CaCO(3), BaSO(4), MgO, chalk, alpha-cellulose and ethyl cellulose were tested as solid substrates. 30-70-mesh silica gel was finally employed in glass tubes of 4.0 mm internal diameter. Silica gel is tr...

Carbon Dioxide Capture and Hydrogen Purification from Synthesis Gas by Pressure Swing Adsorption

Global warming has become more and more serious, which is caused by greenhouse gases. Cutting down the emission of CO2 has already become one of the major research target in the world. This study utilized a pressure swing adsorption (PSA) process to separate high-purity hydrogen and to capture CO2 from synthesis gas, which is the effluent stream of water-gas-shift reactor. The purified H2 can b...

Minibioreactor-gas collector for determining bacteria-produced hydrogen sulfide

A simple and economical minibioreactor-gas collector system for determination of hydrogen sulfide produced by a microorganism was designed. The detection of hydrogen sulfide was based on the reaction between the hydrogen sulfide in the gas stream from the culture, and a lead acetate solution 0.090 mol/L, contained in a tube gas collector; the conductimetric back titration of lead excess was mad...

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) - the third gas of interest for pharmacologists.

Nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO) synthesized from L-arginine by NO synthase and from heme by heme oxygenase, respectively, are the well-known neurotransmitters and are also involved in the regulation of vascular tone. Recent studies suggest that hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) is the third gaseous mediator in mammals. H(2)S is synthesized from L-cysteine by either cystathionine beta-synthase...
