The invention discloses a method for recovering sulphur in an acidic gas. The method comprises the following steps of: carrying out hydrogenating
hydrolysis on organic sulphur in the acidic gas by a
catalytic hydrogenation reaction to obtain an inorganic sulphide, catalytically oxidizing the inorganic sulphide to obtain sulphur, then cooling and condensing the reaction gas after the
catalytic oxidation to separate liquid-state sulphur, then washing and absorbing the residual sulphide in the
tail gas after sulphur separation by
alcohol-containing washing solution from low-temperature
methanol washing, so as to realize complete
recovery for sulphur. The invention further discloses a device used for realizing the method aforementioned and a reactor. The process, device and reactor disclosed by the invention are suitable for sulphur
recovery for the acidic gas with a low-concentration H2S content, and the
tail gas after desulfurization is washed and treated by virtue of
alcohol-containing solution in a low-temperature
methanol washing process, thus reducing the content of sulphides in the
tail gas and protecting environment; meanwhile, the reactor disclosed by the invention is simple and reasonable in structure, and capable of saving equipment floor space and reducing project investment.
