[Photolysis of simulating CS2 malodorous gas using microwave electrodeless lamps].

The photolysis of simulating carbon disulfide malodorous gas was studied under UV irradiation emitted by microwave electrodeless lamps. Experiments results show that the photolysis of carbon disulfide is determined by the initial concentration, residence time and gas humidity. When air velocity is 0.2 m/s, initial concentration is about 100 mg/m3, and gas humidity is about 40%, the conversion ratio of carbon disulfide can reach to 75% with microwave electrodeless mercury lamp and 50% with microwave electrodeless iodine lamp. The mechanism of carbon disulfide photolysis was further studied. It is concluded that the photolysis of carbon disulfide is probably a collective action of direct photolysis and *OH radical oxidation.
