  • Process for desulfurization using particulate zinc oxide shapes of high surface area and improved strength
    Patent number: 4128619
    Abstract: A desulfurization process is provided using particulate zinc oxide shapes of high surface area and improved crushing strength prepared without extraneous binder by a process including forming normal surface area zinc oxide into shapes without binder, converting at least a portion of the zinc oxide to basic zinc carbonate by exposing the shapes in the presence of moisture, to a carbon dioxide-containing atmosphere and effecting substantially complete decomposition of the basic zinc carbonate. Conditions of bulk density, moisture content and temperature are controlled.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 13, 1978
    Date of Patent: December 5, 1978
    Assignee: The New Jersey Zinc Company
