Cu-Cr-O Functionalized ETS-2 Nanoparticles for Hot Gas Desulfurization.

Engelhard Titanium Silicate-2 (ETS-2), a sodium nanotitanate, was surface functionalized by ion exchanging the solid with copper and chromium ions. The ability of this bi-metallic adsorbent to remove H2S at elevated temperatures was assessed using a dynamic breakthrough system and contrasted against an analogous mixed metal oxide, Cu-Cr-O. Unlike Cu-Cr-O, the H2S capacity for Cu-Cr-ETS-2 remains unchanged from 350 °C up to 950 °C.
