Abstract

Nanosized metal sulfide powders of Ag2S, CuS, FeS, Ga2S3, In2S3, MnS, NiS, and ZnS were synthesized for use as gas- and liquid-phase mercury sorbents. An aqueous-based synthesis method using the surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) is described. The vapor- and aqueous-phase mercury-sorption characteristics of the nanocrystalline powders synthesized and of commercially produced Ag2S, Au2S, and Au2S3 are presented.
