Renewable high efficient desulfurization process using a suspension bed

Abstract

Provided is a renewable high efficient desulfurization process using a suspension bed, comprising mixing the desulfurization slurry with a hydrogen sulfide containing gas to obtain a first mixture, and passing the first mixture into a suspension bed reactor from bottom to top, with controlling the first mixture to have a dwell time of 5-60 minutes in the suspension bed reactor to allow they contact and react sufficiently with each other; and subjecting a second mixture obtained from the reaction to gas liquid separation to produce a rich solution and a purified gas, feeding the purified gas into a fixed bed reactor for carrying out a second desulfurization to obtain a second purified gas, subjecting the resulting rich solution to flash evaporation and then reacting with an oxygen-containing gas for carrying out regeneration. The process may reduce the sulfur content in the hydrogen sulfide containing gas from 2.4-140 g/Nm3 to 50 ppm or less by using a suspension bed, and further reduce the sulfur content to less than 10 ppm in conjunction with a fixed bed. The invention achieves high efficient desulfurization by combining the suspension bed with the fixed bed connected in series. The present invention has high regeneration efficiency, and the barren solution may be recycled for being used as the desulfurization slurry, without generating secondary pollution, which is very suitable for industrial promotion.
