Removal of Hydrogen Sulfide from Methane with Liquid Hydrocarbon Additives by Treatment in a Dielectric Barrier Discharge

Abstract

The process of hydrogen sulfide removal from methane with an admixture of C₆–C₈n-alkanes in dielectric barrier discharge has been studied. It has been shown that the shortage of liquid hydrocarbon in the initial mixture results in the formation of high molecular polysulfide compounds, and an excess, in the formation of thiols and alkyl sulfides.
