The desulfurizer research is focused on transition-metal oxide.The paper had discussed in depth the desulfurization activity of nano-size ZnO doped with metallic elements.In order to improve the desulfurization activity of nano-desulfurizer,we prepared the nano-size ZnO desulfurizer doped with iron,nickel and copper ionic respectively,using homogeneous precipitation.At the same time,the effects of different doped elements on the desulfurization activity of nano-size ZnO were compared by removing the pollutant of H2S.The experimental results showed that the desulfurization activity of metallic elements-doped nano-size ZnO increased significantly.When the molar ratio of Fe/Zn is 5:100(FZ5.0) and Cu/Zn is 2:100(CuZ2.0),their sulfur contents are 5.3% and 5.6% respectively.These desulfurizers can reach better desulfurization activity than that doped with nickel.Further research showed that,for CuZ2.0,the primary desulfurization activity is better than that of FZ5.0,but the regeneration temperature is as high as 570 ℃,and after three times regeneration/sulfuration cycle tests,the desulfurization activity decreases obviously.However,FZ5.0 can be recycled 5 times continuously at 370℃ with a stable desulfurization activity.In view of the better regeneration/sulfuration performance of FZ5.0,the dynamics of the removing H2S process by FZ5.0 were further studied.The result showed that the reaction order of removing H2S by FZ5.0 is 0.96385 at 25 ℃.
