Hydrogen sulfide is typically removed from finished products like gasoline and diesel during distillation or through various sweetening processes. But when unit upsets occur, finished products can become contaminated with H₂S and, as a result, fail key specifications that require products to be non-corrosive to copper or silver. Nalco Water offers both water- and oil-soluble EPA-registered H₂S scavengers for gasoline, diesel and their blend components. Our additives react quickly and irreversibly with H₂S to form non-hazardous organo-sulfur compounds. Our H₂S scavengers can also be used in conjunction with copper and silver corrosion inhibitors.

Beyond chemistries, we will also determine the most effective treatment protocol to quickly and efficiently remediate off-specification batches of fuel.
