Abstract
A method for co-processing HS and COin an electrolyzer includes feeding a first gas stream having HS to an anode and feeding a second gas stream having COto a cathode. The HS is split into hydrogen and elemental sulfur. The hydrogen is transferred from the anode to the cathode, and the COis hydrogenated with the transferred hydrogen. A method for producing electricity in a fuel cell includes feeding a first gas stream having HS and CO to an anode, and feeding a second gas stream having oxygen to a cathode. The HS and CO forms hydrogen and carbonyl sulfide. The hydrogen is transferred from the anode to the cathode. The transferred hydrogen is oxidized with the oxygen of the second gas stream, and electricity formed from the oxidation is collected.
