Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) under AICIS
H2S · 硫化氢
Status: Listed. Hydrogen sulfide is on the AICIS Inventory of Industrial Chemicals as a Listed Industrial Chemical. **SUSMP / Poisons Standard Schedule 7 (dangerous poison) applies at concentrated industrial-grade** (verify the current Schedule entry against https://www.tga.gov.au/access-and-supply/poisons-standard before relying). NOT on Australian Drug Control Act precursor list. NO active Australian AD/CVD case on Chinese-origin hydrogen sulfide. **Australia is structurally net-zero merchant trader of H2S** (captive intermediate at sour-gas plants; INPEX Ichthys offshore + Santos GLNG + Origin Energy APLNG sour-gas Claus-process captive); merchant cargo rare. ChAFTA preferential zero-duty applies (rare imports).
AICIS treats hydrogen sulfide as a routine listed industrial chemical with **high hazard profile** (Acute Tox. 2 inhalation + Flam. Gas 1A + Aquatic Acute 1; SUSMP Schedule 7 dangerous poison). NO active Australian AD/CVD case. ChAFTA preferential zero-duty. Australia structurally net-zero merchant H2S trader (captive at INPEX Ichthys + Santos GLNG + Origin Energy APLNG sour-gas Claus-process captive).
