- Abstract
The adsorption capacity of fine rubber particle media (FRPM) derived from discarded vehicle tires and the consumer wasted rubber sources was evaluated for hydrogen sulfide treatment. HS breakthrough tests were performed at various zinc contents, temperatures, and packing quantities. High zinc concentrations increased the adsorption capacity of FRPM significantly. HS removal by FRPM was optimized at a packing quantity of 75 % of the column volume, and the adsorption capacity increased with reactor temperature within the range of 20-85 °C. The regeneration of ZnCl solution was reliable for increasing regeneration capacity of the FRPM-adsorbed HS. FRPM seems to be an attractive alternative of HS adsorbents in terms of cost effectiveness compared to traditional materials.
