Process Description
Carbon disulfide has the chemical formula CS2 and CAS No. 75-15-0. It is a colorless liquid and a common solvent. Pure carbon disulfide has a sweet, ether-like odor. Its boiling point is 46.3°C, its freezing point is approximately −111.6°C, its relative vapor density is approximately 2.64 (air = 1), and its relative liquid density is approximately 1.26 (water = 1). It is extremely flammable and can readily ignite or explode when exposed to heat, sparks, flames, or oxidants. Carbon disulfide is mainly used to manufacture rayon, insecticides, accelerators, and other products, and is also used in the pesticide, rubber, and viscose-fiber industries.

Technology comment
The production of carbon disulfide from natural gas is a new clean technology. Compared with the traditional coke method, it has the advantages of low energy consumption and less pollution. It is the upgrading direction of the domestic carbon disulfide industry. Its market share is growing rapidly with the tightening of environmental protection policies. This data set represents the mainstream technology: producing carbon disulfide through methane sulfidation. Specifically: natural gas is first purified to meet production requirements; the sulfur production section filters purchased liquid sulfur to remove impurities, and supplements solid sulfur when the supply of liquid sulfur is insufficient; the synthesis section reacts natural gas with sulfur and refines it to obtain the product carbon disulfide; and burns the generated hydrogen sulfide gas in the sulfur furnace to convert it into sulfur and reuses it for production; the process of absorbing the tail gas generated by combustion to produce sulfuric acid is not considered. The core reaction chemical equation of this process is: CH4 + 4S → CS2 + 2H2S; 2H2S + O2 → 2S + 2H2O.
