With the effect of environmental factors such as heat and humidity in the environment where materials such as raw materials, end products, by-products or waste containing sulfur (S) element in its content, this sulfur element converts with hydrogen in the environment and turns into H2S (hydrogen sulfide) gas and spreads to the environment.
Hydrogen sulfide; It emerges from various industries such as petrochemical, coke production, iron and steel industry, cement production processes, paper industry, anaerobic wastewater treatment plants, leather industry, oil industry, starch hydrolysis products and nylon industry.
Hydrogen sulfide is a colorless, toxic gas with a rotten egg odor. The smell of hydrogen sulfide, which is a very strong poison, can be felt at a concentration of 10-5 ‘. It is 1,2 times heavier than air. It is highly soluble in water and alcohol. It is flammable. It is explosive to air containing 4.5-45.5% hydrogen sulphide. Hydrogen sulfide must be removed from the environment due to these negative properties.
As BETA Filter, we remove this extremely harmful gas from the environment with our Wet Scrubber designs. We generally use liquid caustic solution (NaOH) as the reducing reactant in the wet scrubber unit. Na + ion in solution and S molecules react with Na2S precipitate.
