An activated carbon catalyst is described which is sufficiently active in the presence of catalytic poisons in crude gas to convert nitrogen oxides to nitrogen in the presence of ammonia.

Activated carbon catalyst

Process for producing activated carbon having a high catalytic activity, in which a carbonaceous material is brought into contact with nitrogen compounds, wherein the carbonaceous material is partially gasified with a mixture of steam, nitrogen and COat temperatures above 800&#xb0; C. in a manner known per se in a multistage fluidized bed and wherein a nitrogen compound is added into the furnace and/or at least one stage of the multistage fluidized bed.

Process producing activated carbon having a high catalytic activity

Process for the production of carbon molecular sieves

A carbonaceous adsorbent impreganted with elementary sulfur is produced by mixing the adsorbent with elementary sulfur in a quantity required for the desired impregnation, heating the mixture to a temperature between 120.degree. and 300.degree. C., maintaining this temperature over a time period of between 1 and 40 hours, and then cooling the mixture.

Method of manufacturing adsorbents

A method is disclosed for the adsorptive removal of H.sub.2 S from gas mixtures in C-containing adsorption agents with 1-80 bar pressures and regeneration, employing pressure lowering and/or temperature change and simultaneous rinsing with an at most negligibly absorbable component of the gas mixture. A carbon molecular sieve of fossil and/or bituminous fuel is used, with for pore diameter less than 10 nm a pore volume of 15-25 cm.sup.3 /100 g, and micropore volume in pore diameter range 0.35-10 nm less than 10 cm.sup.3 /100 g. The inner surface of the molecular screen can be freed of surface groups capable of reacting with the H.sub.2 S by aftertreatment with reducing gas.

Method for the adsorptive removal of hydrogen sulfide from gas mixtures

In a process for eliminating impurities and undesirable components from gas mixtures by passing the mixture through an activated carbon-containing adsorber. Sulfur compounds including hydrogen sulfide are eliminated by increasing the oxygen contents of the gas mixture which contains at least oxygen and/or sulfur dioxide in addition to the hydrogen sulfide to an extent that a hydrogen sulfide oxygen molar ratio is obtained in the gas mixture which is between about 1:0.45 and 1:0.65. The process may also be carried out with two groups of adsorbers where in the first adsorber the elemental sulfur is eliminated in liquid form and where the remaining minor portion of sulfur in vaporous or mist-like form is then removed in the second group of adsorber or adsorbers by adsorption on the activated coal. The purified gas is then recovered from the adsorber or with two groups of adsorbers from the second group of adsorber or adsorbers and the activated carbon is subjected to periodic regeneration cycles.
