摘要: Catalysts using α-FeOOH nanoparticles as the active ingredient were tested by a microreactor- chromatography assessing apparatus at atmospheric pressure between 25 and 60oC with a gas hourly space velocity of 10,000 h-1 , while the removal performance of H2S with catalysts was investigated using the thermal gravimetric method. The results show that the catalysts are highly active for COS hydrolysis at low temperatures (<60oC) and high gas hourly space velocity, and the highest activity can reach 100%. The catalyst is particularly stable for 12 h, and no deactivation is observed. Nanoparticle α-FeOOH prepared using hydrated iron sulfate shows higher COS hydrolysis activity, and the optimum calcination temperature for the catalyst is 260oC . In addition, the catalysts can remove COS and H2S simultaneously, and 60oC is favorable for the removal of H2S. The compensation e ect exists in nanoparticle-based catalysts.
