Abstract: A desorption process and a process for producing a catalytically deactivated formed zeolitic adsorbent, whereby both processes are suitable to improve the lifetime of a formed zeolitic adsorbent in the removal of sulfur compounds from sulfur contaminated gas and liquid feed streams. The adsorbent is in particular a synthetic 13X or LSX faujasite with a silica to alumina ratio from 1.9:1.0 to about 3.0:1.0. The cations of the faujasite include alkali and alkaline earth metals. The formed zeolite mixture is preferably catalytically deactivated due to a phosphate treatment. The desorption is carried out thermally, wherein the heat treatment is done at different temperature stages to avoid decomposition of the organic sulfur compounds.

Abstract: Disclosed is a synthetic zeolite by means of which gas streams containing steam and carbon dioxide as impurities can be purified. The zeolitic adsorbing agent is a 13X type or LSX type faujasite or a mixture of both types that are deformed with a binder, at least some parts of which are highly dispersed. Said novel adsorption system allows extraordinarily high adsorption capacities to be obtained while keeping the mass transfer zones short resulting in a longer service life of the adsorption systems before carbon dioxide is able to break through.

Abstract: A Process for the production and uses of a molecular sieve adsorbent blend product with improved performance characteristics produced by preparing a zeolite powder, preparing a highly dispersed attapulgite fiber binder, mixing the zeolite powder with the highly dispersed attapulgite binder to form a mixture, forming molecular sieve adsorbent products into a shaped material and calcining the shaped material, wherein the tapped bulk density of the highly dispersed attapulgite fibers measured according to DIN/ISO 787 is more than about 550 g/ml.
