The process is however known to suffer from extensive oxidative ligand degradation that results in high operational costs. Moreover, poor biodegradability or toxicity of the existing ligand has become a concern. In this research, we demonstrated that gluconate, a naturally greener ligand, when coupled with manganese as the metal, has considerable potential to be a better redox agent. Manganese gluconate solution was more resistant against ligand degradation compared with iron NTA. As required, aerated solution was capable of converting dissolved NaHS into elemental sulfur. At sufficiently high pH, manganese gluconate solutions were stable enough from precipitation of manganese hydroxide, carbonate, or sulfides. An equilibrium calculation has been developed to understand the precipitation behavior.© 2020 The AuthorsChemical engineering; Environmental chemical engineering; Industrial chemistry; Environmental chemistry; Environmental hazard; Manganese gluconate; Sulfur recovery; Liquid redox; Natural gas; Acid gas; Elemental sulfur[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Acid gas,Chemical engineering,Elemental sulfur,Environmental chemical engineering,Environmental chemistry,Environmental hazard,Industrial chemistry,Liquid redox,Manganese gluconate,Natural gas,Sulfur recovery[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]The research was supported by PT.
