In this study, the removal characteristics of reduced sulfur compounds (RSC) were investigated against activated carbon (AC) by means of electric cooling and thermal desorption. To this end, three types of AC materials were selected and tested against gaseous RSC standards prepared at 50 ppb concentration. Each of these AC materials designated with its own target odorant compounds was tested for the removal rate of RSC by comparing their quantities between prior to and after passing the adsorption tube. All the analysis of RSC was made by Gas Chromatography (GC)/Pulsed Flame Photometric Detector (PFPD) combined with Air Server (AS)/Thermal Desorber (TD). The rate of RSC removal was quantified as a function of RSC loading time (Exp. 1) and of RSC flow rate into TD (Exp. 2). The results of Exp. 1 showed that the adsorption of RSC increased with RSC loading time (from as little as 1 to 20 min). In Exp. 2, the adsorption of RSC also increased in relation to RSC flow rate (10 to 100 mL/min). The removal rate of RSC was also distinguished by chemical properties such as the compounds of low molecular weights (H₂S and CH₃SH) vs. high ones (DMS and DMDS).
