Pulsed electron beams for removal of CS2 from air

Carbon bisulfide as a toxic impurity is present in large amounts in the gaseous waste produced by a number of industries, specifically in the production of viscose. One of the ways to lower the carbon bisulfide content of waste gases is by treating these with pulsed electron beams. Removing from air exposed to microsecond-duration electron beams is possible with low expenditures of energy, less than the bond breaking energy of this molecule. In the present communication, we furnish results of experimental studies on the removal, by use of pulsed electron beams, of the carbon bisulphide impurity from a gas mixture simulating the composition of actual industrial wastes
