The effect of ZnFe2O4/activated carbon adsorbent photocatalytic activity on gas-phase desulfurization

Chao Yang et al.

Summary: The study investigated the effects of light exposure on the gas phase desulfurization of a reactive adsorbent consisting of ZnFe2O4 dispersed onto activated carbon. The experimental results showed that visible light irradiation negatively impacted the H2S removal capacity. In moist conditions, photogenerated electron-hole pairs of ZnFe2O4 directly oxidized H2S into H2SO3/H2SO4, leading to adsorbent deactivation; while in dry conditions, photogenerated holes oxidized H2S to SO2 which was released in the outlet.
