Abstract
The catalytic effectiveness of cobalt (II)-4,4’,4”,4’’’-tetrasulfophthalocyanine (Con^(II)TSP) for the autoxidation of hydrogen sulfide, S(-II), in wastewater was investigated. At pH 7 and 25 ºC the rate of S(-II) oxidation is first order with respect to [S(-II)]. A fractional order on the catalyst was observed. At oxygen concentrations of 15-200 µM the oxygen dependence can be described by simple Michaelis-Menten kinetics with K = 65 µM. The uncatalyzed oxidation of sulfide by molecular oxygen was found to be faster in wastewater than in clean water. This difference was attributed to microbial oxidation of S(-II) and to catalytic action of transition metals present in wastewater.
