Dimethyl Sulfide

What is Dimethyl Sulfide?Dimethyl sulfide

Dimethyl sulfide (DMS), also known as methylthiomethane, is an organosulfur compound. It is a methyl sulfide, in which the sulfur atom is substituted by two methyl groups, with the chemical formula of (CH3)2S. It is a highly flammable straw-colored liquid, with a boiling point of 37 degrees Celsius, or 99 degrees Fahrenheit. This is a compound that is easily recognized by its foul odor, that is often described as “cabbage like”. Unlike many other organosulfur compounds, this disagreeable odor is present in even low concentrations of DMS. Dimethyl sulfide is the product of dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) breakdown, and is also the result of bacterial metabolism of methanethiol.

Oxidizers and Their Applications

UntitledIn the realm of air pollution control equipment, there are myriad solutions for any issue and any manufacturing plant’s installation. Oxidizers in particular are leveraged to support the cleaning and remediation of emitting processes. Simple or complex, thermal or catalytic, oxidizers are central to producing products that conform to environmental mandates. Our job is to match these technologies with the manufacturing plant and client need.

The broadest definition of oxidizers would include reference to their reliance on extreme temperatures and burners for combustion that is complete. Their combusted feed streams can be converted to over 99% oxidation efficiency. [Read more…]
