- Q&A
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is often an undesired byproduct in oilfield operations. Many approaches have been taken to mitigate hydrogen sulfide, usually by converting it into other more benign sulfur compounds. A process that could break down H2S to release hydrogen in the form of gas (H2) would be clearly desirable.
