Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、下水処理場、屎尿処理場、食品工業廃水処理場、埋め立て処分場等において発生する硫化水素を除去するために使用する酸化鉄を主成分とする脱硫化水素剤の再生方法及びその再生方法に使用する再生装置に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、下水処理場等においては、その処理過程において有毒な硫化水素が発生するため、酸化鉄又は水酸化鉄を主成分とするペレット状の脱硫化水素剤を充填した処理塔を設け、発生ガスを処理塔の脱硫化水素剤の層内を通過させることによって硫化水素を除去していた。
この方式では、塔内の脱硫化水素剤の機能が漸次低下してゆくから、概ね半年〜1年周期で新しい脱硫化水素剤と交換されている。
ところで、この使用済み脱硫化水素剤の主成分は硫化鉄となっており、極めて反応性に富んでいることから、空気中に放置すると激しく反応して燃焼し、有毒な二酸化硫黄ガスを発生する。
このため、従来は、この硫化水素で飽和された使用済み脱硫化水素剤に水分を添加してから、産業廃棄物として湿潤状態で埋め立て処分するようにしていた。
【0003】
【特許文献】
特開2002−253963号公報
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
前記埋め立て処分された使用済み脱硫化水素剤は、その主成分が硫化鉄であることから、長期に亘っては硫化水素又は二酸化硫黄ガスを発生し、その埋め立て地等において新たな災害を発生させる危険性がある。
また、使用後の脱硫化水素剤が上述のように埋め立て廃棄されていることから、新しく製造された脱硫化水素剤を次々と消費し、資源保護の観点からも好ましくない。
【0005】
本発明者等は、上記した従来の処理における問題点を解決すべく、硫化水素によって飽和された使用済み脱硫化水素剤を硫化水素や二酸化硫黄等の有毒ガスを発生させない安定した化合物に変成し、更に使用前の脱硫化水素剤と同等の脱硫化水素機能を有して再利用できる省資源に役立つ再生方法を提供することを目的として鋭意研究を重ね、この目的に叶う脱硫化水素剤の再生剤及びそれを使用する脱硫化水素剤の再生方法並びにそれに使用する脱硫化水素剤の再生装置を、特願2000−401201号として提案し、次いでこの出願を優先権の基礎とした特願2001−108012号(上記特開2002−253963号)として提案した。
【0006】
上記特許出願の発明では、再生剤としてアルカリ金属又はアルカリ土類金属の水酸化物と酸化剤とを組み合わせ使用し、これを機能が低下した脱硫化水素剤と接触させることによって脱硫化水素剤を再生する。
【0007】
本発明者等は、この機能が低下した脱硫化水素剤の再生剤、再生方法、及び再生装置を更に改良するために研究を続け、本発明に到達した。
本発明によれば、上記発明に比し操作が簡便で且つコストを軽減できる。
【0008】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明における脱硫化水素剤の再生剤はアルカリ金属及びアルカリ土類金属の水酸化物、炭酸水素塩、及び炭酸塩から成る群から選ばれた化合物の1種又は2種以上を含有して成る。
【0009】
前記先の発明に比して、本発明の特徴は酸化剤を能動的には使用しないことである。本発明においては、先の発明で使用している過酸化水素や次亜塩素酸ナトリウム等の酸化剤は使用しない。本発明においても酸化剤が全く存在しない状態では再生は行なわれず、酸化剤として空気を利用するのであるが、エアレーション等の能動的な操作は行なわず再生剤溶液中に自然に溶解する酸素によって再生反応を行なわせるのである。
【0010】
本発明では上記したとおり再生剤溶液中に自然に溶解する酸素を利用して再生反応を行なわせるのであるから、エアレーション等の操作を行なう、或いは過酸化水素等の酸化剤を使用する先の出願の発明に比し再生反応の進行は緩慢であり、再生処理に長期間を要する。しかしながら、或る一つの脱硫化水素装置から発生する使用済み脱硫化水素剤は前述したように半年〜1年に1回であるので、たとえ処理に或る程度の期間を要しても処理能力に不足を来すことはない。
【0011】
本発明によるときは、過酸化水素等の酸化剤を使用せず、エアレーション等の操作も行なわないのであるから、その分操作が簡便で且つ運転コストを軽減できる。
【0012】
本発明における脱硫化水素剤の再生剤は前述のとおりアルカリ金属及びアルカリ土類金属の水酸化物、炭酸水素塩、及び炭酸塩から成る群から選ばれた化合物の1種又は2種以上を含有して成る。上記の群に属する化合物であれば何れも単独で使用できる。中でも水酸化ナトリウム、炭酸ナトリウム、及び炭酸水素ナトリウムが実用上好ましい。これらの化合物は2種以上を組み合わせて使用することもできるが、殊更に複数種を配合して使用する必要はない。しかし、例えば長期間の貯蔵によってかなりの部分が炭酸ナトリウムに転化している水酸化ナトリウム等はそのまま使用できる。また上記化合物は必ずしも化学的に純粋である必要はなく、不純物や夾雑物が混在していても、それが再生処理に悪影響を及ぼすものでない限り、使用することができる。
【0013】
また、上記再生剤に微量の界面活性剤を含有させると処理効率を向上させることができる。好適な活性剤は陰イオン性界面活性剤又は非イオン活性剤である。
【0014】
本発明においては、上記再生剤を溶液の形態で使用する。再生剤を溶解し且つ再生反応に悪影響を及ぼさないものであれば有機、無機を問わずどのようなものも溶媒として使用することができるが、経済的でありしかも後述するとおり再生処理後の排液処理を要しないので水が最適である。水としては通常の河川水、湖沼水、地下水、雨水等の天然水はもとより、処理済みの廃水(中用水)或いは再生処理に悪影響を及ぼさないものであれば未処理廃水も使用できる。
【0015】
本発明による使用済み脱硫化水素剤の再生処理は使用済み脱硫化水素剤を再生剤水溶液に浸漬させることによって行なわれる。再生剤水溶液を流動循環させれば処理期間を短くできるが、前述したように処理に或る程度長期間を要しても差し支えないのであるから、使用済み脱硫化水素剤も再生剤水溶液も静止した状態で単に浸漬するだけで充分である。
【0016】
再生剤の使用量は、使用済み脱硫化水素剤中の硫化鉄に対してほぼ当量とするが、厳密に当量である必要はなく±5%程度の過不足は許容できる。それよりも不足すれば再生処理が不十分となるばかりでなく、二酸化硫黄ガスの発生が生起するので避けなければならない。また、過剰に用いると再生処理後の排液の塩基性が高まり、放流に際し中和しなければならなくなる。
【0017】
再生処理液中の再生剤濃度については特に臨界的な限界はなく、極端な低濃度或いは高濃度でなければ任意に設定できるが、10%から30%の範囲が好ましく、20〜25%程度が最も好適である。極端な低濃度の場合は被処理使用済み脱硫化水素剤に対する再生処理液量が増大し装置の大型化を来すか或いは被処理使用済み脱硫化水素剤の1回処理量の減少をもたらし、極端な高濃度の場合は再生処理液の所要量が被処理使用済み脱硫化水素剤を浸漬するに満たなくなるので、いずれも好ましくない。
【0018】
また、再生剤として界面活性剤を含有するものを用いる場合、その含有量は再生処理液中の濃度が50〜1000ppmとなるような含有量とすることが好ましい。50ppmに満たないと界面活性剤を含有しないものと大差なくなるし、1000ppmを超えても効果の向上はさして見られないばかりでなく排液を放流した場合新たな環境汚染を発生させるため排液の処理が必要になるので、いずれも好ましくない。
【0019】
本発明の再生処理の被処理物は、前述したとおり、機能が低下した使用済み脱硫化水素剤である。処理に当たっては、脱硫化水素装置から取り出した使用済み脱硫化水素剤をそのまま又は粉砕して再生処理装置に装入すればよい。しかしながら、使用済み脱硫化水素剤は機能低下の程度が著しいものと低下の程度が低く未だ使用可能なものとが混在しているのが普通であるから、再生処理に先立って選別を行ない、低下の程度が或る程度以上著しいもののみ再生処理装置に送り、低下の程度が低く未だ使用可能なものは脱硫化水素装置へ戻すようにすることが好ましい。機能低下の程度が著しい脱硫化水素剤は黒色を呈し、低下の程度が低いものは赤色を帯びているから、選別はこの色相差によって容易に行なうことができる。
【0020】
脱硫化水素剤は通常ペレット状に成型されている。本発明の再生処理においては、脱硫化水素装置から取り出したままの状態で処理を行なってもよいが、ペレットを一旦粉砕し生成した粒状物を処理するようにすれば再生をより均一に行なうことができる。
【0021】
本発明の再生処理方法においては、前述したとおり、エアレーション等は行なわず再生処理液に自然に溶解する酸素を酸化剤として利用する。従って、再生処理を行なう装置は、内容積に比して水平断面積が大きい底浅の水槽乃至プール状のものが好ましいが、処理に或る程度長期間を要しても差し支えないのであるからドラム缶乃至樽状のものでも使用できる。装置の上面は大気中の酸素を取り込むために開口する。
【0022】
なお、本発明においては上述のとおりエアレーションは行なわないのであるが、急を要する場合は先の出願の方法によりエアレーションを行なえば2、3日で再生を終えることができるので、エアレーションもできるように装置を構成して置くと好都合である。
【0023】
上記再生処理は光を照射することによって促進される。光源としては、人工光を用いることもできるが、再生処理装置を屋外に露天で設置し太陽光を利用すれば光熱費を要しないので好適である。
【0024】
装置を露天で設置する場合、上方を完全に開放していると雨天の際雨水によって再生処理液が希釈される。通常の雨程度であれば再生処理に悪影響を及ぼす程のことはないが、豪雨のときの影響は無視できないので、屋根を設けるか少なくともシート覆いを掛けるための枠組みを設けることが好ましい。屋根を設ける場合屋根材は透光性のものを用いるのが好ましい。
【0025】
本発明の脱硫化水素剤の再生処理においては、上述したとおり、使用済み脱硫化水素剤を単に再生処理液に浸漬するだけでよいのであるが、脱硫化水素剤層を緩く攪拌するとむらなく一様に再生できるので好ましい。
攪拌は、脱硫化水素剤層の上下が或る程度入れ替わり、処理液が多少動揺する程度でよく、激しく行なう必要はない。また、常時攪拌する必要はなく、1日に1〜7回、1回当たり数分程度で充分である。
【0026】
再生処理の終了はpHの計測や脱硫化水素剤の硫黄含有量の定量等によって検知できる。
しかし、本発明方法の再生処理の反応は第1図に見られるように緩慢に進行するものであるし、また、必ずしも100%完全に再生が行なわれなくとも、例えば80%程度まで再生が行なわれれば実用上充分であるから、太陽光曝光下に再生処理を行なう場合処理開始後35日から45日が経過したときに再生済みとして脱硫化水素剤を取り出せばよい。処理期間に関しては厳格に設定する必要はなく、適宜延長或いは短縮することができる。
【0027】
本発明の再生処理方法によって使用済み脱硫化水素剤から除去された硫黄は再生済み脱硫化水素剤を取り出した後の母液中にアルカリ金属又はアルカリ土類金属の硫酸塩の形態で残留する。この硫酸塩は安定な化合物であり環境に悪影響を及ぼすことがないので再生処理後の母液はそのまま放流することができる。
【0028】
【発明の実施の形態】
【実施例1】
攪拌翼を備えた直径0.5m深さ0.3mの上面が開口した円筒形の反応槽を太陽光が直射するように屋外に露天で設置した。この反応槽に硫化水素吸着量280mg/gの使用済み脱硫化水素剤1kgを装入し、次いで20%水酸化ナトリウム水溶液1.25kgを装入した。1日に5回毎回1〜2分間攪拌を行ない、それ以外の時間帯は静止状態で静置した。5日毎に脱硫化水素剤の試料を採取し再生率を測定した。測定結果を第1図に示す。およそ35日経過時点で実用上再生済みとして再使用可能な状態(再生率約80%)に到達した。
【0029】
【実施例2】
上記実施例1と同様な反応槽を太陽光が直射しない室内に設置した。この反応槽に10%水酸化ナトリウム水溶液を2.5kg装入し、次いで実施例1と同じ使用済み脱硫化水素剤を同量の1kg装入し、同一条件の攪拌下に反応を行なわせた。実施例1と同じく試料を採取して再生率を測定した。その結果も第1図に示す。およそ75日経過後実用上再生済みとして再使用可能な状態に到達した。
【0030】
【実施例3】
20%炭酸水素ナトリウム水溶液2.5kgを用いた以外は実施例1と同一条件で反応を行なわせ、実施例1と同様な結果を得た。
【0031】
【実施例4】
10%炭酸ナトリウム水溶液3kgを用いた以外は実施例2と同一条件で反応を行なわせ、実施例2と同様な結果を得た。
【0032】
【発明の効果】
上述のとおり、本発明によるときは先の出願と同様に脱硫化水素機能を失った使用済み脱硫化水素剤を再生し、反復使用可能にすることによって資源の浪費を防止できる。しかも排液は何らの処理も要せずそのまま放流できる。
更に、酸化剤を使用せず、エアレーションも行なわないので、より一層省力、省資源、省エネルギーができ、処理コストを低減できる。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a method for regenerating a hydrogen sulfide desulfurization agent containing iron oxide as a main component and used for removing hydrogen sulfide generated in a sewage treatment plant, a human waste treatment plant, a food industry wastewater treatment plant, a landfill disposal site, and the like. The present invention relates to a reproducing apparatus used for a reproducing method.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, in sewage treatment plants and the like, since toxic hydrogen sulfide is generated during the treatment process, a processing tower filled with a dehydrogen sulfide agent in the form of pellets containing iron oxide or iron hydroxide as a main component is provided, Was passed through a layer of a dehydrosulfide agent in the treatment tower to remove hydrogen sulfide.
In this method, the function of the dehydrogen sulphide agent in the column gradually decreases, so that it is replaced with a new hydrogen sulphide agent approximately every six months to one year.
By the way, the main component of this used hydrogen desulfurizing agent is iron sulfide, which is extremely reactive, and when left in the air it reacts violently and burns, generating toxic sulfur dioxide gas. .
For this reason, conventionally, water has been added to the used dehydrosulfide agent saturated with hydrogen sulfide, and then landfilled in a wet state as industrial waste.
[0003]
[Patent Document]
JP-A-2002-253963
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The used desulfurizing agent that has been landfilled generates hydrogen sulfide or sulfur dioxide gas for a long period of time because its main component is iron sulfide, and causes a new disaster at the landfill site or the like. There is a risk.
In addition, since the used hydrodesulfurizing agent is landfilled and discarded as described above, newly manufactured hydrodesulfurizing agent is consumed one after another, which is not preferable from the viewpoint of resource protection.
[0005]
In order to solve the above-mentioned problems in the conventional processing, the present inventors have transformed a used dehydrosulfide agent saturated with hydrogen sulfide into a stable compound that does not generate toxic gases such as hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide. In addition, intensive research has been conducted with the aim of providing a recycling method that has the same dehydrogen sulphide function as the hydrogen sulphide agent before use and that can be reused and can be reused. Japanese Patent Application No. 2000-401201 proposes a regenerating agent, a method for regenerating a hydrogen desulfurizing agent using the regenerating agent, and a regenerating apparatus for the hydrogen desulfurizing agent used in the regenerating agent, and then, based on this application, Japanese Patent Application No. 2001-401201. No.-108012 (the above-mentioned JP-A-2002-253963).
[0006]
In the invention of the above patent application, a combination of a hydroxide of an alkali metal or an alkaline earth metal and an oxidizing agent is used as a regenerating agent, and the deoxidizing agent is brought into contact with a dehydrogenating agent having a reduced function to thereby provide a dehydrosulfide agent. Reproduce.
[0007]
The present inventors have continued research to further improve the regenerating agent, the regenerating method, and the regenerating device of the dehydrosulfide agent having the reduced function, and have reached the present invention.
According to the present invention, the operation is simpler and the cost can be reduced as compared with the above invention.
[0008]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In the present invention, the regenerating agent for the hydrogen desulfurizing agent comprises one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of alkali metal and alkaline earth metal hydroxides, hydrogen carbonates, and carbonates. .
[0009]
Compared to the previous invention, a feature of the present invention is that the oxidizing agent is not actively used. In the present invention, the oxidizing agent such as hydrogen peroxide and sodium hypochlorite used in the previous invention is not used. In the present invention, regeneration is not performed in the state where no oxidizing agent is present, and air is used as the oxidizing agent. However, active operation such as aeration is not performed, and regeneration is performed using oxygen naturally dissolved in the regenerating agent solution. The reaction takes place.
[0010]
In the present invention, as described above, the regeneration reaction is performed using oxygen which is naturally dissolved in the regenerating agent solution. Therefore, an earlier application using an operation such as aeration or using an oxidizing agent such as hydrogen peroxide. The progress of the regeneration reaction is slower than that of the invention, and the regeneration treatment requires a long time. However, as described above, the used hydrogen desulfurizing agent generated from one hydrogen desulfurization device is used once every six months to one year as described above. There is no shortage.
[0011]
According to the present invention, since an oxidizing agent such as hydrogen peroxide is not used and an operation such as aeration is not performed, the operation is simple and the operation cost can be reduced.
[0012]
As described above, the regenerant of the hydrogen sulfide agent in the present invention contains one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of hydroxides, hydrogen carbonates, and carbonates of alkali metals and alkaline earth metals. Consisting of Any of the compounds belonging to the above group can be used alone. Among them, sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, and sodium hydrogen carbonate are practically preferable. These compounds may be used in combination of two or more, but it is not particularly necessary to use a plurality of compounds in combination. However, for example, sodium hydroxide or the like, for which a considerable part has been converted to sodium carbonate by long-term storage, can be used as it is. The compound is not necessarily required to be chemically pure, and can be used even if impurities and impurities are present as long as they do not adversely affect the regeneration treatment.
[0013]
When a small amount of a surfactant is contained in the regenerating agent, the processing efficiency can be improved. Suitable activators are anionic or non-ionic surfactants.
[0014]
In the present invention, the above-mentioned regenerating agent is used in the form of a solution. Any organic or inorganic solvent can be used as the solvent, as long as it dissolves the regenerant and does not adversely affect the regeneration reaction. Water is optimal because no liquid treatment is required. As the water, natural water such as ordinary river water, lake water, groundwater, rainwater, etc., as well as treated wastewater (medium water) or untreated wastewater can be used as long as it does not adversely affect the regeneration treatment.
[0015]
The regeneration treatment of the used hydrogen desulfurizing agent according to the present invention is carried out by immersing the used hydrogen desulfurizing agent in an aqueous regenerant solution. The treatment period can be shortened by flowing and circulating the aqueous solution of the regenerant. However, as described above, the treatment can take a relatively long time. It is sufficient to simply immerse in the condition.
[0016]
The amount of the regenerant used is almost equivalent to the iron sulfide in the used dehydrosulfide agent, but it is not necessary to be strictly equivalent, and an excess or deficiency of about ± 5% is acceptable. If the amount is less than this, not only the regeneration treatment will be insufficient, but also sulfur dioxide gas will be generated, so it must be avoided. When used in excess, the effluent after the regeneration treatment becomes more basic and must be neutralized before being discharged.
[0017]
The concentration of the regenerant in the regenerating solution is not critical, and can be set arbitrarily unless the concentration is extremely low or high, but is preferably in the range of 10% to 30%, and more preferably in the range of 20 to 25%. Most preferred. If the concentration is extremely low, the amount of the regenerating solution for the used hydrogen desulfurizing agent increases, resulting in an increase in the size of the apparatus or a reduction in the amount of one-time treatment of the used hydrogen desulfurizing agent. If the concentration is too high, the required amount of the regenerating treatment liquid is not enough to immerse the used dehydrosulphide to be treated.
[0018]
When a surfactant containing a surfactant is used as the regenerating agent, the content is preferably adjusted so that the concentration in the regenerating treatment liquid is 50 to 1000 ppm. If it is less than 50 ppm, it will not be much different from that containing no surfactant, and even if it exceeds 1000 ppm, not only the effect is not seen much but also if the effluent is discharged, new environmental pollution will occur, so Neither is desirable because it requires processing.
[0019]
An object to be treated in the regeneration treatment of the present invention is a used desulfurizing agent having a reduced function, as described above. In the treatment, the used desulfurizing agent taken out from the desulfurizing apparatus may be charged as it is or after being pulverized into the regenerating apparatus. However, since the used desulfurizing agent usually has a remarkable degree of functional deterioration and a low degree of deterioration and is still usable, it is sorted out prior to the regeneration treatment, It is preferable to send only those having a remarkable degree to a certain degree or more to the regenerating apparatus, and return to the dehydrosulfurization apparatus those which have a low degree of decrease and are still usable. Since the desulfurizing agent having a remarkably reduced degree of function exhibits a black color, and the one having a reduced degree of deterioration has a reddish color, the screening can be easily carried out by this hue difference.
[0020]
The desulfurizing agent is usually formed into a pellet. In the regeneration treatment of the present invention, the treatment may be carried out in a state of being taken out of the hydrogen sulfide device, but if the pellets are once crushed and the generated particulate matter is treated, the regeneration can be performed more uniformly. Can be.
[0021]
In the regeneration treatment method of the present invention, as described above, oxygen that naturally dissolves in the regeneration treatment liquid is used as the oxidizing agent without performing aeration or the like. Therefore, the apparatus for performing the regenerating process is preferably a shallow water tank or a pool having a large horizontal cross-sectional area in comparison with the internal volume, but the process may take a long period of time. Drums or barrels can also be used. The top surface of the device is open to take in atmospheric oxygen.
[0022]
In the present invention, aeration is not performed as described above. However, in the case where urgency is required, if the aeration is performed by the method of the earlier application, the reproduction can be completed in a few days, so that the aeration can be performed. It is convenient to configure the device.
[0023]
The regeneration process is promoted by irradiating light. As a light source, artificial light can be used. However, it is preferable to install a reproduction processing apparatus outdoors in the open air and use sunlight, because it does not require a heating and heating cost.
[0024]
When the apparatus is installed in the open air, if the upper part is completely open, the regenerating treatment liquid is diluted by rainwater in rainy weather. If it is about the level of normal rain, it does not adversely affect the regeneration process, but the effect of heavy rain cannot be ignored. Therefore, it is preferable to provide a roof or at least a framework for covering a sheet. When a roof is provided, it is preferable to use a translucent roof material.
[0025]
In the regeneration treatment of the hydrogen desulfurizing agent of the present invention, as described above, the used hydrogen desulfurizing agent may be simply immersed in the regenerating treatment solution. It is preferable because it can be reproduced in various ways.
Stirring may be such that the upper and lower portions of the hydrogen sulfide agent layer are exchanged to a certain extent, and the processing liquid is slightly shaken, and need not be vigorously performed. Further, it is not necessary to constantly stir, and it is sufficient that the stirring is performed several times a day, once to seven times a day.
[0026]
The end of the regeneration treatment can be detected by measuring the pH, quantifying the sulfur content of the dehydrosulfide agent, or the like.
However, the reaction of the regeneration treatment of the method of the present invention progresses slowly as shown in FIG. 1, and even if the regeneration is not always 100% complete, the regeneration is performed up to, for example, about 80%. If this is sufficient for practical use, in the case of performing the regenerating process under sunlight exposure, it is sufficient to take out the hydrogen desulfurizing agent as regenerated when 35 to 45 days have elapsed after the start of the process. It is not necessary to strictly set the processing period, and it can be extended or shortened as appropriate.
[0027]
The sulfur removed from the used hydrodesulfurizing agent by the regenerating method of the present invention remains in the form of alkali metal or alkaline earth metal sulfate in the mother liquor after removing the regenerated hydrodesulfurizing agent. Since the sulfate is a stable compound and does not adversely affect the environment, the mother liquor after the regeneration treatment can be discharged as it is.
[0028]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Embodiment 1
A cylindrical reaction tank equipped with a stirring blade and having a diameter of 0.5 m and a depth of 0.3 m and having an open top was installed outdoors in the open air so that sunlight could be directly irradiated. This reactor was charged with 1 kg of a used hydrodesulfurizing agent having a hydrogen sulfide adsorption amount of 280 mg / g, and then with 1.25 kg of a 20% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. Stirring was performed 5 times a day for 1 to 2 minutes each time, and the rest of the time was allowed to stand still. Every 5 days, a sample of the hydrogen sulfide was sampled and the regeneration rate was measured. FIG. 1 shows the measurement results. After about 35 days, it reached a state where it was practically reproduced and was reusable (reproduction rate: about 80%).
[0029]
Embodiment 2
The same reaction tank as in Example 1 was installed in a room where sunlight did not directly shine. 2.5 kg of a 10% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution was charged into this reactor, and then 1 kg of the same used dehydrosulfide agent as in Example 1 was charged, and the reaction was carried out under stirring under the same conditions. . A sample was taken in the same manner as in Example 1 and the regeneration rate was measured. The results are also shown in FIG. After about 75 days, it reached a state where it could be reused as being practically reproduced.
