The described invention is a process for producing hydrogen gas comprising (a) combusting sulfur (S) or hydrogen sulfide (H2S) with oxygen (O2) to obtain sulfur dioxide (SO2) and water (H2O), plus heat; (b) adding water to the product of (a) to obtain a sulfurous acid solution (H2SO3 and H2O); (c) applying electrical current to the sulfurous acid solution of (b) to obtain sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and hydrogen gas (H2); and, (d) using gas-liquid separation to separate the sulfuric acid from the hydrogen gas to obtain separated components of the sulfuric acid and the hydrogen gas; and, wherein the heat generated in (a) is used to generate at least a portion of the electricity for the electrical current of (c).

La présente invention porte sur un procédé de fabrication d'hydrogène gazeux comprenant les opérations consistant à (a) effectuer une combustion du soufre (S) ou du sulfure d'hydrogène (H2S) avec de l'oxygène (O2) pour obtenir du dioxyde de soufre (SO2) et de l'eau (H2O), plus de la chaleur; (b) ajouter de l'eau au produit de (a) pour obtenir une solution d'acide sulfureux (H2SO3 et H2O); (c) appliquer un courant électrique à la solution d'acide sulfureux de (b) pour obtenir de l'acide sulfurique (H2SO4) et de l'hydrogène gazeux (H2); et (d) utiliser une séparation gaz-liquide pour séparer l'acide sulfurique de l'hydrogène gazeux pour obtenir des composants séparés de l'acide sulfurique et de l'hydrogène gazeux, la chaleur générée dans (a) étant utilisée pour générer au moins une partie de l'électricité pour le courant électrique de (c).
