Product Description

H2S, like boiled eggs or rotten eggs”

Certified water flavour standard used to train professional tasters to recognize and scale the intensity of H2S character.

Hydrogen sulphide is formed by anaerobic sulphate-reducing bacteria or as a result of electrochemical corrosion of pipework. It imparts an unpleasant sulphury odour to water, reminscent of boiled or rotten eggs.

Food grade | Free from sensory impurities | Extensively tested | Safe to smell and taste.

IMPORTANCE

H2S imparts an unpleasant sulphury note to water. H2S is easily oxidized to less odour-active species, so its presence is indicative of the failure of water treatment processes or post-treatment contamination.

ORIGINS

H2S is formed by anaerobic sulphate-reducing bacteria from sulphate, by Clostridium or Bacillus from sulphite or proteins, or by electrochemical action through corrosion of pipes in systems with very low flow rates.

HOW TO TASTE

The best way to detect hydrogen sulphide in water is as follows. Without covering the glass, swirl the sample to release the aroma. Take a single short sniff. Repeat as necessary.

CAS NUMBER

The CAS registry number of hydrogen sulphide is 7783-06-4.
