3887. WEINGAERTNER, E., AND KUNZE, H. (Braunkohle-Benzin A. G.). [Removing Sulfur Compounds From Gases and Vapors.] German Patent 724,911, July 23, 1942 (Cl. 26 d-8.04). Chem. Abs., vol. 37, 1943, p. 5850.

Gases are treated with solid, finely subdivided salts capable of yielding O carried on a vehicle having large surface area, for example, activated C, SiO₂ gel, or bog Fe ore at approximately 80°. The process is particularly suitable for removing CS₃, mercaptans. H₂S should be removed before this treatment.
