With Merichem Technologies exclusive sulfur recovery technology, this patented liquid redox system uses a chelated iron solution to convert H2S into innocuous, elemental sulfur.
Our unique H2S scavengers, adsorbents, and catalyst technologies deliver cost-effective hydrogen sulfide, mercaptan, and oxygen removal across upstream, midstream, and downstream business assets as well as biogas and advanced biotech applications.
First licensed in 1980, Merichem Technologies THIOLEX™ uses our proprietary FIBER FILM® Contactor as the mass transfer device, with caustic as the treating reagent in liquid and gas hydrocarbon streams.
Our Skid-Mounted Lead-Lag Vessel Systems using SULFURTRAP® adsorbents provide reliable H2S and light mercaptan removal for oil and gas, biogas, landfill gas and other industrial streams.

Selecting the right H2S removal solution for your operations
Merichem Technologies has a solution for the H2S present in your streams. The chart offers suggested ranges for our SULFURTRAP® media and LO-CAT® liquid redox technology.
If your flow or H2S concentration is between the two areas, we are happy to help you confirm which system could be most appropriate based on the needs of your operations.
