Chevron s WWT (wastewater treatment) process treats refinery sour water for reuse, producing ammonia and hydrogen sulfide [7783-06-04] as by-products (100). Degassed sour water is fed to the first of two strippers. Here hydrogen sulfide is stripped overhead while water and ammonia flow out the column bottoms. The bottoms from the first stripper is fed to the second stripper which produces ammonia as the overhead product. The gaseous ammonia is next treated for hydrogen sulfide and water removal, compressed, and further purified. Ammonia recovery options include anhydrous Hquid ammonia, aqueous Hquid ammonia, and ammonia vapor for incineration. There are more than 20 reported units in operation, the aimual production of ammonia from this process is about 200,000 t. 

This reaction can also be mn in a continuous fashion. In the initial reactor, agitation is needed until the carbon disulfide Hquid phase reacts fully. The solution can then be vented to a tower where ammonia and hydrogen sulfide are stripped countercurrendy by a flow of steam from boiling ammonium thiocyanate solution. Ammonium sulfide solution is made as a by-product. The stripped ammonium thiocyanate solution is normally boiled to a strength of 55—60 wt %, and much of it is sold at this concentration. The balance is concentrated and cooled to produce crystals, which are removed by centrifiigation. 

The delayed coking feed stream of residual oils from various upstream processes is first introduced to a fractionating tower where residual lighter materials are drawn off and the heavy ends are condensed. The heavy ends are removed and heated in a furnace to about 900 to 1,000 F and then fed to an insulated vessel called a coke drum where the coke is formed. When the coke drum is filled with product, the feed is switched to an empty parallel drum. Hot vapors from the coke drums, containing cracked lighter hydrocarbon products, hydrogen sulfide, and ammonia, are fed back to the fractionator where they can be treated in the sour gas treatment system or drawn off as intermediate products. 

Attempts to effect ring expansion of methyl 2-azidobenzoate in the presence of other nucleophiles have failed. Thus, photolysis in tetrahydrofuran solution saturated with hydrogen sulfide, or with ammonia, produced methyl 2-aminobenzoate in 54 and 37 % yield, respectively, as the sole identifiable product.197 Photolysis of phenyl azide in ethanolic phenol gave 2-phenoxy-3//-azepine in poor yield (8 %).203,204 2-Mesityl-3//-azepine (10 %) is the surprising, and only tentatively explained, product from the photolysis of phenyl azide in mcsitylene in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid.179... 

The alkali-soluble protein of the peel of lemons treated with hydrogen sulfide, sulfur dioxide, and sulfuric acid contained radioactive sulfur, but the fruit treated with hydrogen sulfide had a significantly lower per cent specific activity in the alkali-soluble protein fraction than did the sulfur dioxide or sulfuric acid treated fruits (Table VII). These results suggest that sulfur dioxide and sulfuric acid react with protein more directly, while hydrogen sulfide perhaps must be oxidized first, as indicated in Table III. It also appears (from Table VII) that the alkali-soluble protein may have been dismuted as the amounts isolated were less in both the hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide treated fruit than in the incubated or nonincubated controls. Other evidence of dismutation has been obtained in experiments where incubation at 60° C. was accompanied by the production of free ammonia (18), and the recovery of free ammonia and six amino acids in the exudates of incubated and sulfur-dusted fruits (18). 

Burkheiser Also known as the sulfite-bisulfite process. A complicated process for removing hydrogen sulfide and ammonia from coal gas by absorption in an aqueous solution containing ammonia, iron oxide, and elemental sulfur. The end products are sulfur and ammonia. Invented by K. Burkheiser in 1907 and developed in Germany in the early 1900s. 

F-S [Ferrous sulfate] A process for removing ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and hydrogen cyanide from coke-oven gas by scrubbing with aqueous ferrous sulfate solution obtained from steel pickling. A complex series of reactions in various parts of the absorption tower yield ammonium sulfate crystals and hydrogen sulfide (for conversion to sulfur or sulfuric acid) as the end products. Developed in Germany by F. J. Collin A.G. 

Hydrotreating generates sour wastewater from fractionators used for product separation. Like most separation processes in a refinery, the process water used in fractionators often comes in direct contact with oil and thus can be highly contaminated. It also contains hydrogen sulfide and ammonia and must be treated along with other refinery sour waters. In hydrotreating, sour wastewater from fractionators is produced at the rate of about I.O gallon per barrel of feed. 

Pollution associated with petroleum refining typically includes volatile organic compounds (volatile organic compounds), carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur oxides (SO c), nitrogen oxides (NO ), particulates, ammonia (NH3), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), metals, spent acids, and numerous toxic organic compounds (Hydrocarbon Processing, 2003). Sulfur and metals result from the impurities in crude oil. The other wastes represent losses of feedstock and petroleum products.
