About the company
Thiozen is an MIT spinout and the first-ever company to commercialize a process that can produce hydrogen from sour gas waste streams. By developing a low-cost, low-emission method of producing hydrogen, Thiozen helps meet the energy industry’s growing demand for clean, affordable hydrogen.
About the solution
Thiozen has developed a proprietary chemical waste-to-hydrogen cycle that removes hydrogen sulfide from gas streams and generates zero-emission hydrogen. Thiozen’s hydrogen is cost-competitive with grey hydrogen, while being carbon-competitive with green hydrogen. Thiozen’s technology is applicable across the energy supply chain, including gas processing, refining, and sour gas reservoirs. Thiozen recently validated its technology in an in-field pilot unit in the Permian Basin and is developing a commercial scale implementation at a gas processing site in Canada.
