Abstract
Gas streams containing non-condensible gases (NCG's) including reduced sulfur compounds, such as hydrogen sulfide, dimethyl sulfide, dimethyl disulfide and mercaptans, are treated to remove the NCG's from the gas stream. Following an optional initial gas-liquid contact to cool the gas stream to its adiabatic dewpoint and to remove particulates, the gas stream is subjected to an intimate gas-liquid contact with aqueous chlorine dioxide, in one or more contact stages, to oxidize the reduced sulfur compounds and other oxidizable compounds present in the gas stream, and then the gas stream is passed through an entrainment separator to remove entrained liquid droplets. Acidic gases produced in the oxidization stage and residual chlorine dioxide generally are removed from the gas steam by intimate gas-liquid contact of the gas stream with an aqueous neutralizing and reducing solution, in one or more contact stages, and ten the gas stream is passed through an entrainment separator to remove entrained liquid droplets.
