How does an iron sponge remove H2S?

sourced

Iron oxide on a wood-chip or pellet carrier reacts with hydrogen sulphide to form iron sulphide and water, exceeding 99.9% removal when properly sized - at ambient temperature and with no electricity. The media saturates and must be replaced or regenerated, and excess water has to be drained or the bed floods.
