  • HETEROGENEOUS DESULFURIZATION CATALYST
    Publication number: 20240075426
    Abstract: A two or particularly three-phase process, and corresponding apparatus, desulfurizes sour hydrocarbon gas, e.g., natural gas, generally better than known, using a fixed-bed, two-phase processes in terms of the amount of H2S scavenged and the breakthrough time of H2S. The three-phase process is effective in scavenging H2S at ambient temperature and pressure, using a copper salt catalyst impregnated on alumina or other generally inert support, which is regenerable.
    Type: Application
    Filed: April 27, 2023
    Publication date: March 7, 2024
    Applicant: KING FAHD UNIVERSITY OF PETROLEUM AND MINERALS
    Inventors: Sagheer A. ONAIZI, Reyad SHAWABKEH, Zuhair Omar MALAIBARI, Nabeel Salim ABU-GHANDER
