The impregnated activated carbons were prepared by the incipient wetness method with the contents of KIO3 varied from 1.0~10 wt% as the impregnation material. The specific surface area and micropore volume of the rice hulls activated carbon were 2,600~2,800 m2/g and 1.1~1.4 cc/g, respectively. With increasing the contents of impregnation materials, the surface area and micropore volume decreased by 3~21%. However, The amounts of hydrogen sulfide adsorbed increased by 2.1~2.8 times depending on the impregnation content. The optimum contents of KIO3 were 2.4 wt%. Although the breakthrough time and adsorption capacity of hydrogen sulfide decreased with increasing temperature in the case of the unimpregnated activated carbons, they increased by 1.2~ 3.2 times for the case of the impregnated activated carbons. The optimum aspect ratio(L/D) was 1.0 and the adsorption amount of hydrogen sulfide enhanced with increasing the gas flow rate. The regeneration temperature was determined as 400℃ from the TGA experiment. The adsorption capacity of hydrogen sulfide with the impregnated activated carbon decreased gradually as the regeneration continued. The hydrogen sulfide adsorption amount of the regenerated activated carbon up to 4 times was still higher than that of the unimpregnated activated carbon.
