This invention is directed to an improved process for conversion of H2S to sulfur, using MOST(Mobil Offgas Sulfur Treatment) catalyst or sorbent. The sorbent is typically a magnesium-aluminate spinet, with oxidation promoters such as ceria and vanadia. H.sub.2 S from the feed gas is used to regenerate sulfated sorbent, simultaneously producing elemental sulfur which is then condensed out. The improvement involves combusting part of the feed, converting some of the feed H.sub.2 S to SO.sub.2 prior to contacting the sulfated sorbent. Thus much of the stoichiometric oxygen required for conversion of H.sub.2 S to S is supplied in the form of SO.sub.2 by this pre-combustion step, instead of coming totally from the oxidized/sulfated solid sorbent. This can decrease the amount of sorbent required, as well as the frequency of regenerations, thus reducing process cost. The hot combustion gas also helps to heat the feed stream. One or more Claus reactors may optionally be added, to further increase sulfur recovery efficiency.
