H2S Scavengers

H2S Removal Chemicals for Oil & Gas Facilities

Hydrogen sulfide, also known as H2S or sour gas, is colourless, heavier than air in its pure state, and highly toxic. It occurs naturally in oil and gas wells and well water. It can be produced naturally from decaying organic matter found in sewage sludge, manure pits and many industrial processes. Aside from being a health hazard, H2S is also extremely flammable and can be a corrosion threat to your equipment and processes. These reasons make it important to remove this harmful gas wherever it occurs.

Novamen works hard to find and develop the highest quality H2S Scavenger products. We also work directly with you to ensure that the right scavengers are employed to meet your specific applications. We have a complete line of H2S Scavengers to choose from to help your operation remain safe and viable.

H2S SCAVENGERS FAQ

An H2S scavenger is a chemical or material designed to remove or neutralize hydrogen sulfide (H2S) from an environment, whether it is in the water, gas, or oil phase. H2S can be produced naturally in many industrial processes, oil and gas wells, wastewater, and well water. H2S scavengers are essential in these industries to reduce unsafe working conditions associated with the highly toxic nature of H2S.

H₂S scavengers behave differently based on their removal method. Chemical scavengers introduce chemicals that react directly with H2S in the environment, neutralizing it through a chemical reaction. On the other hand, physical scavengers rely on absorption, where H2S is either dissolved into a liquid or adsorbed onto a solid surface without undergoing a chemical reaction. 

To determine what H2S scavenger is right for you, it is important to first consider the specific application it will be used in. The effectiveness of H2S scavengers varies based on the form and environment of the H2S. Contact Novamen, and our team will help you select the ideal H2S scavenger from our complete line of scavengers to meet your specific requirements. 

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a highly toxic and flammable gas that poses significant health and safety risks. Low-level exposure can cause irritation in the eyes, nose and throat, while higher concentrations can cause headaches, nausea, respiratory difficulties, and even death. Its corrosive nature can cause significant damage to equipment and infrastructure over time. This makes it incredibly important to implement an effective H2S scavenger from Novamen into your operation.
