Abstract

A feed stream is heated to a preheat temperature. The feed stream includes hydrogen sulfide. After heating the feed stream, at least a portion of the hydrogen sulfide in the feed stream is converted into hydrogen and sulfur to form a mixed product stream. The mixed product stream includes the hydrogen, the sulfur, and a remaining, unconverted portion of the hydrogen sulfide. The preheat temperature is a temperature that is sufficiently hot to maintain a desired reaction temperature while converting at least the portion of the hydrogen sulfide in the feed stream into hydrogen and sulfur. At least a portion of the mixed product stream is cooled to condense the sulfur to form a sulfur stream. The sulfur stream includes the sulfur that has condensed from the portion of the mixed product stream.
