Hydrogen sulfide adsorption by zinc oxide-impregnated zeolite (synthesized from Malaysian kaolin) for biogas desulfurization

The adsorption of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) from the gas stream in a fixed-bed reactor has been investigated using zinc oxide (10–30 wt% loading) impregnated on Na-A zeolite prepared from local kaolin. The adsorbents obtained were characterized by XRF, XRD, FTIR, nitrogen adsorption and SEM. Reductions...

description The adsorption of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) from the gas stream in a fixed-bed reactor has been investigated using zinc oxide (10–30 wt% loading) impregnated on Na-A zeolite prepared from local kaolin. The adsorbents obtained were characterized by XRF, XRD, FTIR, nitrogen adsorption and SEM. Reductions of micropore surface area and micropore volume of Na-A zeolite were observed after modification with zinc oxide. H2S adsorption capacity was the highest, 15.75 mg S/g sorbent, when 20 wt% ZnO was loaded on Na-A zeolite. Reduction in adsorption capacity was observed when wt% ZnO increased above 20 wt%.
