PICT:0871233/III/1 In a process for the absorption of H2S from gases or gaseous mixtures, the H2S is absorbed in an aqueous alkaline solution of one or more anthraquinone disulphonic acids whereby the hydrogen sulphide is oxidised to sulphur and the reduced anthraquinone disulphonic acid or acids is or are reoxidised by means of free oxygen or a gas containing it. As shown, gases consisting of H2S or mixtures of H2S and other gases or gaseous mixtures, e.g. CO2, CO, H2, aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbons, organic sulphur compounds, O2 and N2, say, coal gas, synthesis gas or natural gas, is passed through a plurality of series-connected scrubbing towers 1-4, preferably fabricated from iron-containing material e.g. mild steel, in counter-current to parallel streams of aqueous alkaline solution containing a mixture of isomeric anthraquinone disulphonic acids, particularly a mixture of the 1,5 and 1,8 or 2,6 and 2,7 isomers, containing sufficient alkali, e.g. caustic soda or potash, ammonia, sodium, potassium or ammonium carbonate or organic bases, e.g. alkanolamines, to produce a pH above 7. Spent solutions containing precipitated sulphur passes into tank D and thence by overflow to tank E. From E the solution is passed by pump B to an oxidiser wherein it is contacted with a co-current of free oxygen or air to effect regeneration. Regenerated solution collects in tank C from whence it is passed to header tank F either directly, or wholly or in part through filter press G for removal of sulphur. From header tank F solution is returned to the top of the absorption towers. The process may be effected at normal or elevated temperatures and atmospheric or higher pressures. When the gases contain CO2 at least part of the process is effected at elevated temperature to to produce a pH above 7. Spent solution conbonate formation, e.g. the solution in tank F may be heated to expel CO2, or an additional heater (not shown) may be positioned between the washing and oxidation stages operating at 60 DEG C. When the gases contain large amount of free oxygen the oxidation step may be omitted, the solution being returned direct to the top of the absorption towers after removal of sulphur. Reference is also made to the batchwise operation of the process, and to filtration before regeneration. Where coal gas is scrubbed, the ammonia present in the gas may be sufficient for maintaining the pH.
