This article reviews studies on the photolytic and photocatalytic splitting of H2S to generate hydrogen, comparing the economic potential and kinetics of gaseous and aqueous phase reactions. Higher efficiency has been achieved with MnS photocatalysts compared to CdS. Future work is needed to address challenges such as photo-corrosion in order to advance light-driven H2S splitting for hydrogen production.
In this article, studies on the photolytic and photocatalytic splitting techniques for the generation of hydrogen from H2S in aqueous and gas phase media under ultraviolet and/or visible light irradiation are reviewed. The kinetics of hydrogen production are also thoroughly discussed as a step towards process scale-up. Our findings indicate that the splitting of gaseous H2S exhibits greater economic potential but shows much slower kinetics than its aqueous phase counterpart. Recent studies have demonstrated that higher efficiency can be attained with manganese sulfide (MnS) photocatalysts compared to cadmium sulfide (CdS), which in the past has been widely recognized as a promising photocatalyst for the production of H-2 from aqueous H2S. Finally, the current challenges faced in implementing light-driven H2S splitting and its prospects are highlighted. In particular, it was realized that future work needs to be directed towards the synthesis of novel photocatalysts or the development of reaction conditions that minimize or completely inhibit photo-corrosion, one of the major issues faced during the light-driven production of H-2 from H2S in the presence of several photocatalysts. This critical review is envisaged to help fuel the renewed interest in the production of hydrogen through photocatalytic H2S splitting.
