sodiummercaptan - Preparation Method
Open Data Verified Data
absorption method; The hydrogen sulfide gas is absorbed by the sulfide alkali solution (or caustic soda solution). Because hydrogen sulfide gas is toxic, the absorption reaction should be carried out under negative pressure. In order to prevent excessive pollution of air by hydrogen sulfide gas in the tail gas, several absorbers will be operated in series in the production, and the hydrogen sulfide content will be reduced to a lower level by multiple absorption. The absorption solution was concentrated to obtain sodium hydrosulfide.

Sodium hydrosulfide (containing ≥ 25% of the water of crystallization) UN NO. 2949;IMDE code 8225 pp., Class 8. It should be stored in a ventilated and dry warehouse. Transportation should be protected from rain and sun exposure. Sodium hydrosulfide in iron barreled shall be transported by shed car. Liquid sodium hydrosulfide shall be transported by tank car, and the package shall be kept intact. Do not lie down or put down, and do not contact with acid. Attention should be paid to fire prevention and corrosion prevention during transportation. Storage and transportation should be kept away from food and articles that react with hydrogen sulfide. When loading and unloading should be light to prevent packaging damage. In case of leakage of packaging barrels, it should be washed with water and welded tightly. In case of fire, it can be suppressed by water, sand and all kinds of fire extinguishing. Corrosive to the skin, should wear protective equipment for labor protection.

| Overview | sodium hydrosulfide is used in the dye industry as an adjuvant for the synthesis of organic intermediates and the preparation of sulfur dyes, in the leather industry for the depilation of hides and tanning, in the chemical fertilizer industry for removal of activated carbon desulfurizer in the monomer sulfur, in the mining industry for a large number of copper mineral processing, in the production of man-made fibers for sulfurous acid dyeing, etc, is the manufacture of Ammonium Sulfide and pesticide ethyl mercaptan semi-finished materials, but also for wastewater treatment. The production process of sodium hydrosulfide is relatively mature, but with the development of various economic forms and the increasing competition, it is required to reduce the input as much as possible to produce high quality and more products. At present, the preparation method of sodium hydrosulfide is a caustic soda absorption method, which requires the raw material gas to be relatively pure hydrogen sulfide gas, and mainly uses the tail gas for producing barium chloride or barium nitrate to react with sodium hydroxide solution to prepare sodium hydrosulfide. The production of sodium hydrosulfide by caustic soda requires no carbon dioxide in the raw material gas. If the raw material gas contains carbon dioxide, sodium carbonate will be generated in the production process: NaOH CO2 → Na2CO3 H2O, the formation of sodium carbonate not only reduces the yield of caustic soda, but also affects the quality of sodium hydrosulfide, affecting the use of users, carbon dioxide content is greater than 10%, in the production will also block equipment and pipelines, so that the production can not be normal. |
