Neutralization of the toxic gas hydrogen sulfide is an important step in almost every natural gas processing plant. A novel method for the conversion of hydrogen sulfide is a combination of bromination and oxidation reactions (BrOx). The first of those, the bromination of hydrogen sulfide, is investigated experimentally. An analysis of the potential by‐products reveals that their formation during the reaction can be excluded. Furthermore, a parameter study showed that reaction yields of up to 94 % are achievable by suitable reaction conditions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
