Gas chromatographic studies showed that soils have the capacity to sorb substantial amounts of sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, and methyl mercaptan small carbon monoxide, ethylene, acetylene. Sulfur dioxide was sorbed more rapidly than H2S or CH3SH, all three gases were much CO, C2H4, C2H2. When expressed as mg gas sorbed/g soil, capacities air-dry samples studied for sorption ranged from 1.1 15.3 SO2, 15.4 65.2 H2S, 2.4 32.1 CH3SH. The corresponding moist (50 percent WHC) 9.3 66.8 11.0...
