Abstract

Abstract A deodorization method which comprises allowing a bad-smelling gas containing (a) hydrogen sulfide and/or a mercaptan, (b) a sulfide and/or a disulfide and (c) ammonia and/or an amine to contact (1) firstly with activated carbon, (2) then with activated carbon or clay mineral having an acid supported thereon, and (3) subsequently with activated carbon in the presence of chlorine or bromine.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 66 words
A deodorization method which comprises allowing a gas containing as main bad-smelling components (a) hydrogen sulfide and/or a mercaptan, (b) an organic sulfide and/or an organic disulfide and (c) ammonia and/or an amine to contact (1) firstly with activated carbon, (2) then with activated carbon or clay mineral having an acid supported thereon, and (3) subsequently with activated carbon in the presence of chlorine or bromine.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 66 words
A deodorization method which comprises allowing a gas containing as main bad-smelling components (a) hydrogen sulfide and/or a mercaptan, (b) an organic sulfide and/or an organic disulfide and (c) ammonia and/or an amine to contact (1) firstly with activated carbon, (2) then with activated carbon or clay mineral having an acid supported thereon, and (3) subsequently with activated carbon in the presence of chlorine or bromine.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 49 words
A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the gas is contacted (1) firstly with activated carbon having 200 to 2,000 m 2 /g of a specific surface area, (2) then with activated carbon having sulfuric acid supported thereon, and (3) subsequently with activated carbon having bromine supported thereon.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 58 words
A method as claimed in claim 2, wherein an amount of sulfuric acid to be supported on activated carbon is 1 to 40 weight percent relative to the activated carbon and an amount of bromine to be supported on activated carbon is 0.02 to 0.4 mg per m 2 of a specific surface area of the activated carbon.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 52 words
A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein the gas is contacted (1) firstly with activated carbon having 200 to 2,000 m 2 /g of a specific surface area, (2) then with clay mineral having sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid supported thereon, and (3) subsequently with activated carbon having bromine supported thereon.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 76 words
A method as claimed in claim 4, wherein an amount of sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid to be supported on clay mineral is 1 to 40 weight percent relative to the clay mineral and the ratio of sulfuric acid to phosphoric acid is 1 to 0.5-10 by weight, and an amount of bromine to be supported on activated carbon is 0.02 to 0.4 mg per m 2 of a specific surface area of the activated carbon.
