The present disclosure relates to water purification compositions and the method of producing the same. Specifically, the present disclosure relates to a method of producing a water purification composition including providing a substrate having one or more functional groups that has hydroxyl, thiol, carboxyl, and/or amino group; depositing a solution of a metal salt on the substrate; depositing a solution of carboxylic acid compound on the substrate; forming a mixture wherein the metal cross-links the hydroxyl, thiol, carboxyl and/or amino groups on the surface of the substrate, and the carboxylic acid compound; and heating the mixture till the product is dry.

A continuous desulfurization process and process system are described for removal of reduced sulfur species at gas stream concentrations in a range of from about 5 to about 5000 ppmv, using fixed beds containing regenerable sorbents, and for regeneration of such regenerable sorbents. The desulfurization removes the reduced sulfur species of hydrogen sulfide, carbonyl sulfide, carbon disulfide, and/or thiols and disulfides with four or less carbon atoms, to ppbv concentrations. In specific disclosed implementations, regenerable metal oxide-based sorbents are integrated along with a functional and effective process to control the regeneration reaction and process while maintaining a stable dynamic sulfur capacity . A membrane-based process and system is described for producing regeneration and purge gas for the desulfurization.
