Allied-Signal Process. Cyclohexanone [108-94-1] is produced in 98% yield at 95% conversion by liquid-phase catal57tic hydrogenation of phenol. Hydroxylamine sulfate is produced in aqueous solution by the conventional Raschig process, wherein NO from the catalytic air oxidation of ammonia is absorbed in ammonium carbonate solution as ammonium nitrite (eq. 1). The latter is reduced with sulfur dioxide to hydroxylamine disulfonate (eq. 2), which is hydrolyzed to acidic hydroxylamine sulfate solution (eq. 3). 

The first synthesis of thiepin 1,1-dioxide (131) was performed by Mock in 1967 75>. With exess bromine in chloroform 2,7-dihydrothiepin 1,1-dioxide (129), prepared by 1,6-addition of sulfur dioxide to m-hexatriene, gave a dibromide 130 which, on treatment with two equivalents of triethylamine, afforded 131. Upon catalytic reduction, 131 rapidly absorbed three molar equivalents of hydrogen to yield hexahydrothiepin 1,1-dioxide (132). The 1,1-dioxide 131 is a fairly stable compound ... 

Ispra Mark 13A A flue-gas desulfurization process developed at the Joint Research Centre of the European Community at Ispra, Italy, from 1979. It uses a novel electrochemical method to regenerate the solution used for absorbing the sulfur dioxide. The products are concentrated sulfuric acid and hydrogen. The absorbent is a dilute aqueous solution of sulfuric and hydrobromic acids, containing a small amount of elemental bromine. Sulfur dioxide reacts with the bromine thus ... 

The Bio-FGD process converts sulfur dioxide to sulfur via wet reduction (10). The sulfur dioxide gas and an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide are contacted in an absorber. The sodium hydroxide reacts with the sulfur dioxide to form sodium sulfite. A sulfate-reducing bacteria converts the sodium sulfite to hydrogen sulfide in an anaerobic biological reactor. In a second bioreactor, the hydrogen sulfide is converted to elemental sulfur by Thiobacilh. The sulfur from the aerobic second reactor is separated from the solution and processed as a sulfur cake or liquid. The process, developed by Paques BV and Hoogovens Technical Services Energy and Environment BV, can achieve 98% sulfur recovery. This process is similar to the Thiopaq Bioscrubber process for hydrogen sulfide removal offered by Paques. 

The CNG process removes sulfurous compounds, trace contaminants, and carbon dioxide from medium to high pressure gas streams containing substantial amounts of carbon dioxide. Process features include 1) absorption of sulfurous compounds and trace contaminants with pure liquid carbon dioxide, 2) regeneration of pure carbon dioxide with simultaneous concentration of hydrogen sulfide and trace contaminants by triple-point crystallization, and 3) absorption of carbon dioxide with a slurry of organic liquid containing solid carbon dioxide. These process features utilize unique properties of carbon dioxide, and enable small driving forces for heat and mass transfer, small absorbent flows, and relatively small process equipment. 

Sulfides and sulfites can also be determined by volatilization. Hydrogen sulfide or sulfur dioxide evolved from the sample after treatment with acid is collected in a suitable absorbent.
