Hydrogen Sulfide

H2S is a gas that forms naturally in crude oil, natural gas, and water with high sulfur concentrations (sour water).
  • H2S is soluble in water, and may be released out of the water if there is change in the pH, line pressure, and /or temperature.
  • Some of the process areas may generate potentially fatal concentrations of H2S. These sources could be from raw materials, process reactions, or exposure of materials during a fire.
More detail about the properties and effect cause by Hydrogen Sulfide can see on Hydrogen Sulfide properties.
