Hydrogen sulfi de is a colorless gas with an offensive stench and is said to smell like rotten eggs. The gas can be detected at a level of 2 parts per billion. It is very erosive in a wet state and become Sox when it is oxidized.
Physical Properties of H2S
Hydrogen sulfi de has a structure similar to that of water. This is where the similarity ends, however. Sulfur is not nearly as electronegative as oxygen so that hydrogen sulfi de is not nearly as polar as water. Because of this, comparative-ly weak intermolecular forces exist for H2S and the melting and boiling points are much lower than they are in water. Hydrogen sulfi de and water boil at - 60.7 °C and +100.0 °C, respectively.
General Information Filtersorb HSR
Using a patented process, ferric hydroxide can now be produced in a granular form. Various bead diameters can be made by combination of crushing and sieving procedures. This gives access to a great variety of new applications of ferric (III) hydroxide. The Filter media, containing iron hydroxide Fe(OH)3 has an amorphous structure. The ferric ions content in the fi ltering media is about 40% by weigh. Because of its chemical activity, ferric (III) hydroxide is quite appropriate to bind arsenate, phosphate or sulfi de ions in aqueous media. Due to internal high pH of media it has an additional effect of the reac-tion with H2S and can reach oxidation capacity up to 20% by its dry weight.
Operation Principles
Arsenic and Phosphate removal In a fi rst step arsenate or phosphate ions in aqueous solutions were adsorptively bounded to the surface of Filtersorb HSR. Second step is a chemical conversion to stable ferric arsenate or ferric phos-phate to the surface of Filtersorb HSR.
Fe(OH)3 + H3PO4 > FePO4 + 3 H2O Fe(OH)3 + H3AsO4 > FeAsO4 + 3 H2O
Hydrogen Sulfi de removalSulfi de ions formed from hydrogen sulfi de in water are removed in a similar way under precipitation of hardly soluble ferric sulfi de.
2 Fe(OH)3 + 3 H2S > Fe2S3 + 6 H2O
Hydrogen Sulfi de, Arsenic and Phosphates Removal in Drinking Water
Application:
• Water treatment: Filtersorb HSR media is applicable in a wide range of water treatment processes, from large-scale municipal systems to small-scale residential treatment units.Regardless of the system size, there are operational design parameters that must be considered to ensure effective, trouble free performance of the Filtersorb HSR media.
Groundwater or surface water is simply pumped in down fl ow mode through a single or multiple fi xed bed pressure vessel containing the Filtersorb HSR media, but it can be also successfully used in up fl ow fi ltration. In down fl ow fi ltration is recommended to use oxygen dosing for better oxidation. It is also being used in systems to remove Chro-mium, Cooper, Selenium.
The multiple pressure vessel design is either assembled in Parallel Flow or Series fl ow. Flow to each vessel is measured and totalized to record the volume of water treated. Pressure differential through each vessel is also monitored.
Periodic backwashing is typically performed at start-up and after each pressure drop of 0,5-1,0 Bar thereafter depending on usage and water quality.
• Elimination of Arsenic from drinking water
• Binding of Phosphates from rivers and lakes
• Oxydation of Hydrogen Sulfi de in water
• Treatment of contaminated ground water
• Filter beds for the separation of phosphates compounds in wet lands
• “Reactive barriers” for the confi nement of contamination in depositions
• Binding of nutritive substances in aquarium or garden pond treatment
