Abstract: Disclosed is a method in which hydrogen sulfide-containing liquid sulfur is introduced into a containment vessel to partially fill the containment vessel and create a hydrogen sulfide-containing liquid sulfur phase and a hydrogen sulfide-containing vapor phase. A portion of the hydrogen sulfide-containing liquid sulfur phase is then treated to produce a liquid sulfur-containing phase and a gaseous hydrogen sulfide-containing phase, such that the gaseous hydrogen sulfide-containing phase has a pressure of at least about 60 psig. A portion of the hydrogen sulfide-containing vapor phase is then withdrawn from the containment vessel using at least one eductor driven by a motive fluid, where the motive fluid is the gaseous hydrogen sulfide-containing phase from the container vessel. The hydrogen sulfide-containing waste gas stream exiting the eductor is then treated to reduce the hydrogen-sulfide content of the waste gas.

A portion of the hydrogen sulfide-containing vapor phase is then withdrawn from the containment vessel using at least one inductor driven by a motive fluid, where the motive fluid is the gaseous hydrogen sulfide-containing phase from the container vessel. The hydrogen sulfide-containing waste gas stream exiting the inductor is then treated to reduce the hydrogen-sulfide content of the waste gas.
