A process for reducing the hydrogen sulphide content in a composition containing or consisting of hydrogen sulphide and non-gaseous elemental sulphur, comprising contacting the composition with a scavenger, wherein the scavenger is chosen from the group consisting of zinc oxide, zinc carbonate, zinc hydroxy carbonate or a combination of two or more of these.

Provided are a preparation method for insoluble sulfur and an anti-reversion stabilizer used thereby. Methane is used as the anti-reversion stabilizer. The methane is added to liquid sulfur at sulfur gasification stage, and is cracked into active free radicals under the action of sulfur vapor active free radicals; in the quenching process of sulfur vapor mixed with methane, the active free radicals generated by methane cracking carry out end capping on insoluble sulfur end groups generated by sulfur vapor polymerization, thus completing insoluble sulfur stabilization. The methane is added at liquid sulfur gasification stage, and after sulfur gasification, the methane is mixed with sulfur vapor in a gaseous form, rather than being added to the product in a solid or liquid manner at a later stage, so that the insoluble sulfur and the stabilizer can be uniformly contacted and mixed to the greatest extent.

Provided are a method for treating sulfur hexafluoride and an apparatus for collecting and treating by-products. The method for treating sulfur hexafluoride, and the apparatus for collecting and treating by-products according to the present invention are a significantly effective method and apparatus capable of safely treating sulfur hexafluoride at low cost.

Provided are modified sulfur and a production method thereof, the modified sulfur including sulfur and a modifier, wherein the modifier is an unsaturated fatty acid-based modifier.

A reactor for converting hydrogen sulfide into hydrogen gas and sulfur.

Contemplated systems and methods for removing polysulfides and hydrogen sulfide from liquid sulfur of a Claus plant include (a) physically separated steps of catalytic decomposition of polysulfides and gas stripping, or (b) use of the stripping gas as the continuous phase in a packed column with decomposition catalyst to so avoid catalyst attrition.

A method for producing insoluble sulfur, including: heating a sulfur to 200-700° C., quenching it with water, aqueous solution and other solvents, drying and solidifying the resulting substance at 40-80° C. for 3-15 h, to obtain an insoluble sulfur crude product; crushing the crude product in water into particles with a particle size of 50-400 meshes, wherein the water temperature is not higher than 80° C.; pumping the slurry of water and crude product into the upper part of an extraction column, pumping solvent into the lower part thereof; making the water and solvent from the top of the column flow into a separation tank to separate water phase and solvent phase, heating and evaporating the solvent phase to recover solvent and obtain soluble sulfur; heating and evaporating the insoluble sulfur and solvent from the bottom of the column to recover solvent and obtain purified insoluble sulfur.

A reactive process for converting hydrogen sulfide into hydrogen gas and sulfur and a reactor for effecting such process.

Disclosure relates to modified sulfur, preparation method thereof, preparation equipment thereof. The modified sulfur has spinnability or includes micro-structures such as fiber-, film- and network-like structure. The modified sulfur can be prepared by inducing polymerization with ultrasonic or ageing. The modified sulfur has various excellent features such as anticorrosiveness, waterproofing, strength, and fast drying and can control the features depending on its viscosity or polymerization degree. In addition due to the above features, the modified sulfur can be applied to anticorrosive or waterproofing material and can prepare anticorrosive or waterproofing material which has good workability, hardening, salt spray resistance, and weldability exceeding a certain level, and specially improved adhesiveness. Furthermore, when applying the modified sulfur to asphalt composition, gelation and depression are reduced, properties such as bending strength and tensile strength are improved, and it is possible to obtain asphalt composition with good working stability at RT.

The vessel has a floor that is a raft footing formed of reinforced concrete and has a floor interior surface. The vessel also has a ceiling that is a slab of reinforced concrete and has a ceiling interior surface. Sidewalls of the vessel extend between the floor and the ceiling and are formed of reinforced concrete, each sidewall having a sidewall interior surface. A liner is bonded to the floor interior surface, the ceiling interior surface, and each sidewall interior surface. The liner formed of an epoxy vinyl ester resin, and a glass fiber sheet embedded in the epoxy vinyl ester resin.
