AND KATAYAMA, I.]  Synthesis of Benzine From Carbon Monoxide and Hydrogen at Ordinary Pressure.  XLV.  Purification of the Gaseous Raw Material Used for Benzine Synthesis.  4. Removal of Organic Sulfur by Means of Synthetic Agents.  Jour. Soc. Chem. Ind. (Japan), vol. 42 suppl., 1939, pp. 9, 12; Sci. Papers Inst. Phys. Chem.

        With the same gas many synthetic masses were used for the removal of organic S.  A mixture of Fe2O3-Al2O3-brimstone and NaOH (Fe 10%, Fe2O3:Al2O3=1:1 and 1% NaOH) at 450° and a gas rate of 330 l. per hr. reduced the S to 0.19 gm. per 100 m.3  A 7:3 mixture of Luxmasse and diatomaceous earth with 30% NaOH at 350° and a gas rate of 330 l. per hr. reduced the S to 0.07 gm. per 100 m.3  A mixture of Fe2O3-bentonite-NaOH containing 10% Fe and 10% NaOH at 400° and a gas rate of 790 l. per hr. reduced the S to 0.16 gm. per 100 m.3  With the Fe2O3-Al2O3-diatomaceous earth-NaOH mass, the presence of CO2 was harmful.  Diatomaceous earth is the best carrier and materially increases the life of the purification mass.
