Researchers use chemical looping process to produce hydrogen from hydrogen sulfide gas

Green Car Congress

Hydrogen sulfide is emitted from manure piles and sewer pipes and is a key byproduct of industrial activities including refining oil and gas, producing paper and mining. Herein, we demonstrate a sulfur looping scheme in a one-reactor system using a low-cost and environmentally safe iron-based sulfur carrier. —Jangam et al.
