Progress on hydrogen sulfide removal: from catalytic oxidation to plasma-assisted treatment

Air pollution is a long-standing environmental challenge as well an important economic subject. Hydrogen sulfide is one the major pollutants in the industrial releases. This review focuses on the thermochemical treatment of hydrogen sulfide based on the most recent works to date regarding its removal. By analyzing fundamental steps in chemical reaction engineering, some useful factors are emphasized since they are often neglected in scientific studies, catalysts design and process scale-up. From processing side, the fluid flow conditions including velocity, H
