        Studies were made on the influence of various gases on the removal of organic S compounds from industrial gases.  C₂H₄ had a deleterious effect on Fe and Al catalysts but not on Ni and Cu at 250°.  At 400° no effect was detectable.  C₆H₆ had no effect, while C₂H₂ had a deleterious effect.  Acidic gases, such as CO₂ or HCN, transformed CS₂ to H₂S, especially at high temperature.  A high CO₂ content had a deleterious effect at high temperatures.  HCN also had a deleterious effect.  Air, N₂, and water vapor gave good results.  Superimposed effects of various impurities were complicated.
