  Continuous process for the removal of hydrogen sulfide from a gaseous stream - Patent 4765873
Thereafter, the enriched aqueous solution of ammonium sulfide, ammonium hydroxide, and hydrogen sulfide is introduced into the anode compartment of an electrolytic cell operated at ambient temperature and pressure containing an anode and anolyte in said anode compartment, a cell membrane, and a cathode and catholyte in a cathode compartment.
Ammonium hydroxide together with ammonium polysulfide produced in the anode compartment are withdrawn from the cell through line 32 and pass either through line 34 or through line 28, respectively, back to the contact zone or to a heating zone supplied with an oxygen containing gas through line 25.
When the aqueous solution of ammonium hydroxide and ammonium sulfide is led to the electrolysis zone, the sulfide ions are electrolytically oxidized to polysulfide at the anode and at the same time hydrogen and hydroxide ions are produced at the cathode.

  Ammonium sulfide - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ammonium sulfide, (NH, is obtained, in the form of micaceous crystals, by passing hydrogen sulfide mixed with a slight excess of ammonia through a well-cooled vessel; the hydrosulfide NH •HS is formed at the same time.
The common "stink bomb" consists of a solution of ammonium sulfide in water, sealed inside a glass ampoule.
When the glass is broken, ammonia and hydrogen sulfide gases, both of which have a powerful unpleasant smell, are released from the solution.

An aqueous ammonium sulfide solution is supplied to the electrolyte chamber, where the content of (NH.sub.4).sub.2 S lies in the range from 0.1 to 200 g/l, and preferably is at least 10 g/l.
Sulfide is reacted in an amount of 6.8 g/h, of which 93% are determined to be APS by means of a sulfur analysis.

 naming of binary compounds
S is potassium sulfide because you have a potssium atom bonded to a sulfur atom.
We now find that the ammonium radical, NH is considered as a simple positive ion, and even though it is not a metal, it would go at the front of a compound name.
Cl is ammonium chloride because you have an ammonium radical bonded to a chlorine atom.
