Abstract
Non-acidic sulfur compounds can be extracted from a gas stream by contacting the gas stream with a carbonate solvent that contains at least one organic carbonate in an amount that is effective to solvate at least a portion of the non-acidic sulfur compounds. The gas steam can then be separated from the carbonate solvent that contains the non-acidic sulfur compounds. The carbonate solvent may optionally include a co-solvent and/or a mercaptan scavenger.
