Summary:A solution of a polyvalent chelated metal is used to effect a catalytic oxidation of hydrogen sulfide to elementary sulfur. A process for the desulfuration of a gaseous charge containing H2S comprises: (a) contacting the charge with an aqueous catalytic solution comprising a chelated polyvalent metal in conditions such as to effect the oxidation of H2S to elementary sulfur and corresponding reduction of the metal to a lower oxidation state, recovering and reducing gaseous effluent depleted of H2S and a reduced aqueous catalytic phase containing elementary sulfur; (b) filtering off sulfur; (c) degassing and/or depressurizing part of the catalytic phase; (d) contacting the reduced and degassed phase from (c) with an oxidant and regenerating; and (e) recycling regenerated solution to (a). The aqueous reduced solution is thus separated into a main fraction F1 and a minor fraction F2 : the main fraction, without expansion, is recycled to the absorption stage (a).
