%X Hydrogen sulfide adsorption performance of sonicated natural zeolite in the Ferric chloride hexahydrate solution has been studied.£¿ In this research natural zeolite exposed with high intensity ultrasonic waves for 40 minutes, 80 minutes and 120 minutes. Qualitative analysis and characterization of modified zeolite carry out with X-ray diffraction, Infrared spectroscopy, BET adsorption desorption, LAS particle size analysis and scanning electron microscopy prior and after H2S adsorption.£¿ Natural zeolite phase are clipnotilolite and mordenite phase with 0.99%wt and 0.512 x 10-3 %wt respectively.£¿ By adding 5gr FeCl3.6H2O and ultrasonic exposure, zeolite chemical and physical properties such as chemical composition, particle size, surface area and pore radius are improved.£¿ Hydrogen sulfide %wt adsorption effectiveness showing that modified zeolite higher 70-117% comparing with unmodified zeolite
