This invention relates to a method for purifying waste air from sulphuric gases, in particular from hydrogen sulphide, carbon disulphide and sulphur dioxide by adsorption and oxidation in a bath containing inorganic oxidizing compounds soluble in water, e.g. hypochlorites of alkali metals, preferably sodium hypochlorite in an amount equivalent to at least 0.1 g, preferably 3-5 g of available chlorine per 1 liter of bath and, if need be additions in the form of chemisorbents such as polyethylene glycol or aliphatic amines in an amount of at least 0.005 g/l of bath, and/or oxidation catalysts such as vanadium and/or palladium salts in an amount of at least 0.01 g/l of bath, and/or organic oxidizing compounds soluble in water such as hydroquinone in an amount of at least 0.1 g/l of bath, with a pH-value of 9-12, in a closed cycle of bath.
A method for purifying waste air simultaneously from hydrogen sulphide, carbon disulphide and sulphur dioxide comprising contacting said waste air in a closed cycle with an aqueous alkaline solution of an oxidizing agent consisting of (1) an alkali metal hypochlorite in an amount equivalent to at least 0.1 g. of available chlorine per liter (2) hydroquinone in an amount of at least 0.1 g/l and (3) at least 0.005 g/l of a chemisorbent selected from the group consisting of polyglycols having a molecular weight less than 300 and aliphatic amines.
