  • Hydrogen su lphide is a colourless and fairly toxic, fla mmable and corrosive gas which also has a characteristic odour at a very low concentration. Hydrogen sulphide dissolves in hydrocarbon and water streams and is a lso found in the vapour phase above these streams and in natural gas.

Hydrogen sulphide may also react with hydrocarbon components present in fuel. It would therefore be desirable for the workers' comfort and safety to reduce or even eliminate the hydrogen sulphide emissions during the manipulation of said products.
