Sour water is treated to remove dissolved hydrogen sulfide by means of an aqueous chelated poly- valent metal solution in a continuous recirculating system, particularly an autocirculation system, having reaction and oxygenation zones. The solution contains a small catalytic amount of chelated polyvalent metal, and the dissolved hydrogen sulfide is catalytically oxidized to sulfur in the liquid phase by means of dissolved oxygen in the solution. The sour water feed to the reaction zone is diluted by a massive recycle of oxygenated solution from the oxygenation zone before the sour water is contacted with air or other oxidizing gas used for oxygenating the used solution. A portion of the oxygenated solution containing chelated polyvalent metal is removed as the sweet water product, and replacement chelated polyvalent metal is added. The operating variables are controlled to maintain in the solution a predetermined polyvalent metal content and an effective dissolved oxygen content, and also to maintain a predetermined residence time so as to obtain high efficiency of hydrogen sulfide removal.
