The present disclosure generally relates to scavenging hydrogen sulfide. The disclosure pertains to non-aqueous and non-volatile compositions that include a monolignol alcohol and hydrogen sulfide scavenging compound. The hydrogen sulfide scavenging compound may be hexamine in some aspects. The compositions may also include a C.sub.2-8 polyol. The compositions disclosed are stable and can be used, for example, in removing hydrogen sulfide from hot asphalt.

A method for preparing p-xylene is provided. Raw materials containing methanol, naphtha and CO.sub.2 are introduced into a reactor filled with a catalyst for a reaction to produce p-xylene. By adding the methanol, the product distribution is adjusted, and the selectivity of p-xylene is obviously improved. In addition, components containing benzene and toluene in aromatic hydrocarbon products are returned to a reaction system and co-fed with the raw materials for a reaction to produce p-xylene, so that cyclic utilization of the raw materials is achieved, and the method has extremely high economic benefits. The method has a simple process and high feasibility, can greatly improve the selectivity and yield of p-xylene, has an important application value, and provides a new way for large-scale utilization of CO.sub.2.

The present invention relates to a slurry hydroconversion process of a heavy oil feedstock comprising: (a) preparing a first conditioned feedstock (103) by blending said heavy oil feedstock (101) with an organic chemical compound (102) comprising at least one carboxylic acid function and/or at least one ester function and/or an acid anhydride function; (b) preparing a second conditioned feedstock (105) by mixing a catalyst precursor composition (104) with said first conditioned feedstock so that a colloidal or molecular catalyst is formed when it reacts with sulfur; (c) heating the second conditioned feedstock in at least one preheating device; (d) introducing the heated second conditioned feedstock (106) into at least one slurry bed reactor and operating said slurry bed reactor in the presence of hydrogen and at hydroconversion conditions to produce an upgraded material (107), the colloidal or molecular catalyst being formed during step (c) and/or (d).
