About Quinoline
Quinoline is a hetrocyclic aromatic organic compound with chemical formula of C9H7N. Quinoline is yellowish ~ dark brownish liquid, and is slightly soluble in cold water but dissolves well in most organic solvents.
Quinoline is extracted from Coal-Tar, then distilled to high purity. With its unique characters, Quinoline is used in wide range of end-use applications, such as sulfur recovery (Claus process), water treatment, metal finishing and organic solvent as well as precursor to intermediate of agrochemical and pharmaceutical intermediates such as 8-Hydroxyquinoline and 2,3-Pyridinedicarboxylic acid.
In petroleum and natural gas refineries, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is removed in acid gas removal process and is sent to sulfur recovery unit. To remove H2S, the most common technology is to absorb H2S in reusable absorbing solution. The reusable absorbing solution is typically Nitrogen compound, more precisely amine compound, which dissolve H2S gas. Among the amine compound, Quinoline is one of the best choices for this process and is commonly used as main ingredient of the absorbing solution.
