and Implications Ruminal hydrogen sulfide concentrations may be a useful tool to determine risk of cattle developing sulfurinduced polioencephalomalacia. In this study, steers were fed a low sulfur (0.2% S) or a high sulfur diet (0.7% S) and ruminal hydrogen sulfide concentrations were measured. Although differences in ruminal hydrogen sulfide due to sulfur intake were maintained throughout the...

Hydrogen sulfide, which is produced by sewer biofilms as a result of sulfate reduction under anaerobic conditions, has since long been identified as a major cause of corrosion and odour problems in a sewer system. Dosing of various types of chemicals to wastewater is widely used by the water industry as a control measure for these problems. Oxygen/air, nitrate salts, iron salts and magnesium hy...

Ferric oxide-containing waterworks sludge can be used to reduce the formation of hydrogen sulfide during anaerobic digestion. The ferric compound is reduced biochemically in digester and forms insoluble pyrite sludge. Virgin chloride often solve problem. Since 2013, Sydvatten AB has supplied a growing number digestion plants Sweden with ferric-containing dewatered derived from drinking water tr...

INTRODUCTION Hydrogen sulfide and related sulfur compounds produced internally by yeast during fermentation are considered highly undesirable if they are excreted and exceed threshold concentrations in the finished wine, as they cause an unpleasant "reduced character". The threshold for hydrogen sulfide is on the order of parts per billion and that for some of the other reduced sulfur compounds...

The effects of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) were tested in three ecotoxicological tests in order to evaluate its confounding potential in assessment of pore water and groundwater toxicity. The luminescent bacteria Vibrio fischeri, the water flea Daphnia magna, and the microalgae Scenedesmus vacuolatus often are part of a biotest battery. A new technique for the synthesis of hydrogen sulfide solutions...

Hydrogen sulfide removal catalyst was prepared chemically by precipitation of zinc bicarbonate at a controlled pH. The physical and chemical catalyst characterization properties were investigated. The catalyst was tested for its activity in adsorption of H2S using a plant that generates the H2S from naphtha hydrodesulphurization and a unit for the adsorption of H2S. The results comparison betwe...

A comprehensive field investigation in several parts of India has revealed that the presence of coliforms in drinking water is associated with hydrogen sulfide-producing organisms. This paper describes a simple, rapid, and inexpensive field test for the screening of drinking water for faecal pollution, based on the detection of hydrogen sulfide. The new test showed good agreement with the stand...

Many commercial processes are available for the removal of H2S from gaseous streams. The desulfurization of gas streams using aqueous ferric sulfate solution as washing liquor is studied. Apart from sulfur, only H2O is generated in the process, and consequently, no waste treatment facilities are required. A distinct advantage of the process is that the reaction of H2S with is so rapid and compl...

with its well-known biological toxicity, the excessive concentrations of sulfide in tannery wastewaters may upset the biological treatment processes, thus leading to a substantial decrease in the efficiency of treatment plants. the presence of sulfide in wastewaters may dramatically interfere with microbial activities and consequently disturb the function of the system as a whole. in this study...
