HYDROGEN SULFIDE OCCURRENCE AND REMOVAL
AUGUST 15TH 2010

Hydrogen sulfide is a commonly occurring nasty, toxic, and lethal gas. Hydrogen sulfide is colorless.
Hydrogen sulfide must be reduced to permissible levels for safety and corrosion standpoints, typically 1 to
4 ppm (mole % basis). Severe concern is considered when H2S is above 100 ppm.
Hydrogen sulfide is very corrosive when dry forming FexSX complexes, very adherent, and interferes with
flow passage of gas, especially in dry gas pipelines.

Hydrogen sulfide occurs form generation by growth of anaerobic (grow in area where oxygen is absent)
bacteria called sulfate reducers (common name).
Hydrogen sulfide can be produced from the decomposition of waste, garbage, and compost domes.
Hydrogen is produced from handling of sulfur from some natural gas wells, from leakage from storage
domes.
Hydrogen sulfide is produced in high quantities from natural gas and associated gas from oil wells
throughout the world, especially in Canada, Southern US, Mexico, Russia, Iran and others.
Due to producing or disposal or storage of associated brine production in oil and gas production, waters
accumulate H2S from handling and bacterial contamination.
Corrosion Problems:
Locations:
Producing from oil/gas formation-down hole tubulars.
Wellhead flow, under high velocity.
Flowlines and gathering vessels.
Gas/oil/water separators.
Gas processing plants.
Transportation of unsweetened (H2S removed) gas.
Vapor space of liquid storage( stock) tanks.
Amine sweetening systems.
Dehydration of gas units.
Crude shipment by barge, ship, pipeline to refineries.
Crude loading and offloading systems for processing.
Crude oil towers to breakdown fractions of the oil.

HYDROGEN SULFIDE OCCURRENCE AND REMOVAL (cont.)
AUGUST 15TH 2010

H2S Scavengers:
Direct N-Pakt manufactures liquid chemical reagents to remove or lower the hydrogen sulfide content,
occurring at low % or low ppms.

Direct N-Pakt chemical scavengers will reduce the level of hydrogen sulfide to where corrosion can be
controlled , the IRON (Fe) sulfides can be minimized.
The solids of FexSx can cause plugging in disposal or secondary water injection systems. Oil dehydration
upsets and problems can be reduced by limiting the solids, including the reaction products and the Fe xSx.
CHEMICALS:
Direct N-Pakt supplies liquid scavengers that are useful in treatment of natural gas, carbon dioxide with
associated gas, liquid condensates or crude oil, and waters of various types, including refinery process,
produced oilfield waters, sewage, drilling fluids and fracturing fluids.
Direct N-Pakt supplies H2S scavengers that are:
gas soluble
oil soluble
water soluble
Gases associated with oil and gas production usually contain CO 2 (carbon dioxide), which causes an
acidic pH. The addition of H2S scavengers to CO2 containing fluid can cause pH to rise sharply. The
formation of calcium or magnesium carbonates and amine carbonates can occur. Direct N-Pakt H 2S
scavengers usually hold this to a minimum, but it does occur.
In these cases, the DNP-02-00 2022, contains a chelant. Other products and 2022 can use the addition of
Direct N-Pakts high calcium tolerant phosphonates, which are both sequestrants and chelants, @ 1-2%.
The common added is DNP-06-00-68441 or 68481, or 68521. These phosphonates also help to dissolve
Fe xSx.
Formaldehyde can be added to the Direct N-Pakt line of H 2S scavengers except the oils soluble; 2100,
2601, or 2835, to synergize or accelerate reaction ratios.
The use of Direct N-Pakts H2S scavengers can be coordinated with using proper Corrosion Inhibitors to
mitigate even low level of H2S or in process areas not previously removed of H 2S.
Technical information is supplied for the Direct N-Pakts H 2S scavengers and their handling.

H2S Scavenger Series

Direct N-Pakt supplies both chemicals and technical expertise in handling of chemicals and their
applications. Direct N-Pakt can supply specialty blends for particular use.

H2S TREATMENT RATIOS IN VARIOUS EXPRESSIONS
AUGUST 13TH 2010

Triazines supposedly react at 1 mole removes 3 moles of Sulfide (not as H 2S).


Molecular weight of ethanol amine triazines is 219.
Reaction is 3 x 32 =96 mole weight of 3 sulfides. So 2.28 parts of triazine per 1 part of sulfide.

Theoretical relation of standard triazine as 2151, is 1.71 # (0.14 kg/liter) removed by 1 gallon,
for a ratio of 7.4
Overspent relation of standard triazine as 2151, is 1.78 # removed by one gallon,
for a ratio of 4.87.
Note the overspending:
Assumes 8.66 #/gallon density for 1 gallon.
@ 9.08 #/gal, 1.17=7.76 ratio. 1.78 = 5.1 ratio.

Most of the triazines use a factor of 3 to 3.3 in the calculation:


Chemical [liters per day]=ppm H2S x MMscf/d divided by factor.
This is 0.333 to 0.303 for LPD or 0.088 to 0.08 GPD
1 Liter of scavenger will remove 3.2 ppm of H2S from one MMscf gas.
0.5 Liter of scavenger + 0.5 liter of 37% formalin will remove 5.6 ppm H2S from one MMscf gas.
I gallon of scavenger will remove 12.1 ppm of H2S from one MMscf gas.
16 ppm H2S will be removed from one MMscf gas per gallon of scavenger.
1 gallon= 16/ppm H2S/ MMscfd
gallons/day= 0.0625/MMscfd/ppm H2S
1/16=0.0625 x 3.785 = 0.2366 liters/ppm H 2S/MMscfd
1/14=0.0714 x 3.785 = 0.2704 liters/ppm H 2S/MMscfd
1/21=0.0476 x 3.785 = 0.18 liters/ppm H2S/MMscfd
1/47=0.0213 x 3.785 = 0.08 liters/ppm H2S/MMscfd
Liters/day per 3.785 liters/gallon = 0.2642 gallons/day

H2S Scavenger Series

@ 50% active the ratio of Chemical to sulfide is 2.28/0.50= 4.56

Hypothesis can be forever and techniques to test structure are eluding.
The reactant is methylene [CH2] to form a stable reaction product. Therefore the molecule must use its
amine for capture and the methylene must be easily released in the system. The system can be gas,
hydrocarbon liquids, aqueous liquids, or mixtures. The methylene of formalin is the most reactive.
For towers, the product density has a physical effect, as well as it should not easily carry with the gas if
radial velocity is exceeded. Considered the most for money is MEA triazine or this MEA/CH 2O reaction
product mixed with formaldehyde, if local restrictions or companies allow.. Some have discussed DEA
as some improvement. EDA can be used as well.

The form sought is S-S-S or maybe S-S-S-S-S. This is achieved from the (CH2-S) n, where n= most
commonly 3 and 4.
Trithiane is usually present in small quantities. CS2 is present and dithianes.
MEA is typically the lowest cost. MMA is expected to perform but may be too volatile for most producers

FORMALDEHYDE AMINE REACTIONS with CONDENSATIONS and LIQUIDS
15th August 2010

The reaction of formaldehyde, including formalin (37% inhibited with 3 to 25% methanol), 49-51% tackifier
grade, or methyl formcel (normally 55% formaldehyde in 35% methanol and 10% water) with primary or
secondary amines is an exothermic condensation to form methylol groups, Schiff Bases, methylene linkages as
Triazines or Oxazolidines, methylene bridge condensates, and other impurities.
Primary constituents: of ethanolamine

1. 1,3,5 Triazine-1,3,5 (2H, 4H,6H) triethanol


Oxazolidine

CAS # 4719-04-4
CAS # 504-76-7

1. Trimethylene glycol Monomethyl ether


2. Dimethylethanolamine
3. Acetamide, N (2-hydroxyethyl)

CAS # 1589-49-7
CAS# 108-01-0
CAS # 142-26-7

Formaldehyde polymers (polyoxymethylene)


The primary constituents are present as shown or as mixtures in equilibrium with the methylol or Schiff forms,
as these reactions are run as solution combination and not as dehydrating (water removal).
The reaction can be run with tertiary amines but forms quaternary type bases, which are very alkaline and
unstable.
HANDLING:
Formaldehyde is easily handled and monitored due to its odor and low level of detection. Suitable method
should be set to specifically identify any low level presence.
Adequate cleaning of any possible spills should be available separate from all other containment systems.
Ethanolamine/water mixture rapidly destroys small quantities of formaldehyde. Sodium or Ammonium
Bicarbonate assist in handing large spills. Formaldehyde is acidic about 3.5 to 6.5 pH, depending on free
acid present.
Trace contaminants can cause excessive changes in final product distribution, and especially insoluble
residue polymers, not easy to remove, causing suspended particles and turbidity.
Formaldehyde should be stored under pressure or in equalization of water or amine or bicarbonate
scrubber at < 110 F if possible, and > 45 F. At lower temperatures the appearance and settling of
paraformaldehyde, should be dispersed prior to use.
The use of the higher 12-15% methanol inhibited grade can be helpful, but the 7% grade is preferred.
Warming of formalin prior to use is not required.
The most common linkage is methylene bridge to produce the Triazines, oxazolidines, Schiff bases, methylol
adducts all commonly called amine aldehyde adducts. Most common adjunct additives are formaldehyde,
acetaldehyde. Acetadol.
Amines vary but are as such:
Acetaldehyde ammonia, alkyl amines and polyamines, hydroxyalkylamines, and ether amines.

STORAGE, REACTION, and STRUCTURE of H2S SCAVENGERS
15TH AUGUST 2010

STORAGE:
Preferably store liquid H2S scavengers by controlling the temperature at 105 +/- 10 F. Storage above these
temperatures need to be stabilized blends.

Keep the storage from direct light if a drum or tank. If Totes are used and are transparent keep from any
Ultraviolet Light. Maintain a positive pressure against tank vapor outlets to inhibit breakdown and release of
any aldehydes, especially odors.
STRUCTURES:
Comments:
Triazines are an unstable form. Normally it has been assumed that Oxazolidine or Triazines are the color
constituents. The color constituents are deemed results of oxidation and heat. If the triazine exists then
assume it is a formyl [2, 4 6- formyl-1, 3, 5-hydroxyethyl-1, 3, 5-S-triazine (with the 1:1 molar reaction ratio.)]
Diimines are very possible. These are the Schiff bases or the similar to even though we are talking of
tautomer forms.
The imines or enamines of tautomers (C=N or C=C), acetals, hemi-Acetals, and amine/acetals, or dimers or
polymers (i.e. multimer).
Patent by Pounds and Cherry claim the product composition of glyoxal and amines are unknown, no triazines
or imines are present (WO1996005907).
Weers identifies reaction species are methylene bridge materials.
REACTION:
The reaction of the imines, Schiff bases, enamines, Aldehydes, Triazines, oxazolidines, Acetals,
hemi-acetals, and the new coined term of methylene bridged reaction products are through the
CH2--, methylene group.
Therefore the amine is the absorbing agent or capturing agent.
It is known that the excess amine is not required for effective reaction. Currently Ethanolamine Triazines are
mixed 50% with formalin and increase reaction by 2 times.
Early products of industry used formalin with about 2 to 9% volume of diethnaolamine, triethanolamine,
hydroquinone and others.
So the methylene reacts with the H2S , mercaptan, or other sulfur compounds and the amine is liberated.

Sulfur is soluble @ 50% in carbon disulfide (CS 2).


Sulfur is soluble @ 2.5% in acetone.
A desalting process offers the advantage of using NaOH or KOH with the washing action.
Also the proper surfactant can be used.
Possibly an oil dispersible aldehyde can react with the caustics, lithium, sodium, or potassium to form the
sugars or carbohydrates insitu.
An oxidizer may be included in a wash step and convert mercaptans to dialkyl disulfides. Drawback is dialkyl
sulfides will not remove by this method. US patent 3,449,239.
A relatively standard method is to dissolve sulfur with strongly alkaline Na2S to form Na2S2. The sulfur exists
in chains terminating with negative charges. Acidification of such a solution yields a mixture of hydrogen
polysulfides (sulfuranes) and chain compounds that will decompose to sulfur and hydrogen sulfide.
Dialkyl disulfides (C4 to 22 carbons) [Merox are normal] with amine (4 to 12 carbons) additive as
Diethylamine or N-alkyl-1, 3-propane diamine. US patent 4,239,630.
Sulfur reacted disulfide. 15.5 lbs. sulfur per barrel solvent @ 75F. US patent 3,531,160.
NMP and M-Pyrol will reduce films and disrupt crystal liquid interface.
Sulfur is soluble in M-Pyrol. H2S is soluble in M-Pyrol @ 32 volumes.
Maltose is a stabilizer for polysulfides.
Sodium Borohydride reacts with disulfides; will hydrogenate double bonds or nitriles.

H2S SCAVENGER TREATMENT PROBLEMS
14TH AUGUST 2010

Watch system variations:


Dew point
Gas composition
Production, gas rate
Condensate
Oxygen

Triazine:

The conversion from the semi-stable methylene forms or Schiff base or imine to a Triazine can

occur or does when admixed with water..


Does methanol addition slow this?
It slows any transition.

Premature change of fluids. Cause:

Is there an appearance or change in reaction products?


Is there any FexSx present?
Is there any air or oxygen changing the result?
Any polysulfides? S-CH2-S-CH2-S or S-S-S?
