A process is described for preventing the formation of thiosulfate in oxidative hydrogen sulfide scrubbings. For this purpose, an aqueous alkaline scrubbing agent, containing an oxidizing agent, is used, the hydrogen sulfide being absorbed from the scrubbing agent in a scrubbing column and oxidized principally to elementary sulfur with reduction of the oxidizing agent. Subsequently, the scrubbing agent is regenerated for reuse by exposure to an oxygen-containing gas for the reoxidation of the oxidizing agent. A thiocyanate is added to the scrubbing agent, advantageously in a concentration of 0.06 to 0.5 mol/l, preferably 0.3 to 0.4 mol/l.

1.

1. In a continuous process comprising oxidizing hydrogen sulfide absorbed in an aqueous alkaline scrubbing agent having a pH of 8-9 and prepared by admixing in water a vanadate oxidizing agent, anthraquinonedisulfonic acid and sodium carbonate, the weight proportion of the vanadium to the anthraquinonedisulfonic acid being about 1:2, the hydrogen sulfide being thereby oxidized principally to elementary sulfur; regenerating the scrubbing agent in an oxidizer to reoxidize reduced vanadate with an oxygen containing gas; and recycling the resultant scrubbing agent to the scrubbing step, said process being susceptible to the formation of thiosulfate, the improvement consisting essentially of providing a sufficient concentration of a source of thiocyanate in the scrubbing agent to prevent any build-up of thiosulfate after at least 1,000 hours of operation, which build-up would otherwise occur in the absence of the addition of said source of thiocyanate. 2. A process according to claim 1, wherein the source of thiocyanate is added in a concentration of 0.06 to 0.5 mol thiocyanate per liter. 3. A process according to claim 1, wherein the source of thiocyanate is added in a concentration of 0.2 to 0.4 mol thiocyanate per liter. 4. A process according to claim 1, wherein said aqueous alkaline scrubbing agent consists essentially of 1.5 g/liter of vanadium, 3 g/liter of anthraquinonedisulfonic acid in salt form, and 30 g/liter of sodium thiocyanate. 5. In a continuous process comprising oxidizing hydrogen sulfide absorbed in an aqueous alkaline scrubbing agent containing a vanadate oxidizing agent and a promoter consisting essentially of an amine, the hydrogen sulfide being thereby oxidized principally to elemental sulfur; regenerating the scrubbing agent in an oxidizer to reoxidize reduced vanadate with an oxygen containing gas; and recycling the resultant regenerated scrubbing agent to the scrubbing step, said process being susceptible to the formation of thiosulfate, the improvement comprising providing a sufficient concentration of a source of thiocyanate in the scrubbing agent to prevent any build-up of thiosulfate after at least 500 hours of operation. 6. A process according to claim 5, wherein said aqueous alkaline scrubbing agent consists essentially of the vanadate, the amine, and the source of thiocyanate. 7. A process according to claim 6, wherein said aqueous alkaline scrubbing agent contains sodium carbonate. 8. A process according to claim 6, wherein said amine is an alkanol amine. 9. A process according to claim 8, wherein said alkanol amine is methyldiethanolamine. 10. A process according to claim 7, wherein said amine is an alkanol amine. 11. A process according to claim 10, wherein said alkanol amine is methyldiethanolamine. 12. A process according to claim 5, wherein said amine is an alkanol amine. 13. A process according to claim 5, wherein said alkanol amine is methyldiethanolamine.
