DARCO H2S
The density of DARCO H2S is lower (see Table 1) than any other
carbon product used for odor control. As a result, fewer pounds
of DARCO H2S are required to fill the adsorber vessel. The
density advantage of DARCO H2S provides direct cost savings
since fewer pounds of activated carbon are purchased. This
advantage translates to an immediate cost savings of 10-40%
on pounds alone.

Oxygen is required for effective performance (more than 4 times the H2S concentration on a molar basis is normally sufficient).
Moisture is required to achieve high loading on DARCO H2S. A minimum relative humidity of 30% (preferably higher)
is recommended.
