Carbon Disulfide Adsorption Plant

On the opening area Carbon Disulfide (CS2) is on the gas form, because CS2 have boiling point at about 46oC at atmospheric condition and CS2 is a flammable. On the plant that use CS2 as raw chemicals material and then release CS2 gas should have waste gas treatment to catch this release gas before the flue gas been through away to the environment. There are several type of CS2 catch process that is used on waste gas treatment plant, and some of them use CS2 adsorption plant. CS2 adsorption plant recovers CS2 from the lean gas using vapor phase adsorption onto activated carbon. The CS2 laden lean gas stream is passing through the activated carbon (AC) bed in the adsorber where CS2 gas molecules are adsorbed onto the large surface of AC. The adsorption ceases at the equilibrium point at which the AC can not take up any more of CS2. CS2 recovery starts by desorption of CS2 gas molecules from the AC and followed by the condensation of CS2. Thermal energy of steam is employed to desorbs CS2 from the AC. The CS2-steam mixture is subsequently cooled and condensed. CS2 is collected as pure product.
