ABSTRACT
Looking for alternative sources of energy to generate electricity has been a hot topic for society for a very long time. The need to replace current energy resources such as fuel, oil, and gas is increasing, and the replacement comes from energy obtained from the wind, sun, and sea waves. In many cases, valuable raw materials can be obtained in addition to energy production, while having a significant environmental effect simultaneously.
The shortage of energy and raw material resources in many countries stimulates the growth of interest in all potential sources of energy – solar, wind, wave, tidal – has lead to accelerating the demand for oil and gas, shale gas, as well as the expansion of the areas for the cultivation of technical crops for biofuels. Classical energy resources like oil, gas and coal are serious polluters of the natural environment. Especially harmful is the release of carbon dioxide and sulfur oxides during the exploitation of these resources.
A significant energy raw material potential of non-traditional resources lies in the waters and bottom of the Black Sea, which is a natural geobiotechnological reactor, capable of producing a variety of energy raw resources.
This paper discusses the use of hydrogen sulfide available in the Black Sea waters to produce energy and useful industrial products and proposes the respective. The technology also has an ecological effect in terms of the purification of the hydrogen sulfide pool. The paper also discusses some technologies for the separation of hydrogen sulfide to hydrogen and sulfur. An estimation of the heat value of hydrogen sulfide in the water of the Black Sea is also presented.

O możliwości wykorzystania siarkowodoru z Morza Czarnego
Morze Czarne, wykorzystanie H2S
Poszukiwanie alternatywnych źródeł energii do produkcji energii elektrycznej od dawna jest gorącym tematem w społeczeństwie. Konieczność zastąpienia obecnych źródeł energii, takich jak paliwo, ropa naftowa i gaz, jest coraz większa, a pochodzi ono z energii pozyskiwanej z wiatru, słońca i fal morskich. W wielu przypadkach, oprócz produkcji energii, można pozyskać cenne surowce, mając jednocześnie znaczący wpływ na środowisko.
Niedobór surowców energetycznych i surowcowych w wielu krajach stymuluje wzrost zainteresowania wszystkimi potencjalnymi źródłami energii – słońcem, wiatrem, falami, pływami – doprowadził do przyspieszenia popytu na ropę i gaz, gaz łupkowy, a także ekspansji powierzchni pod uprawę roślin technicznych na biopaliwa. Klasyczne źródła energii, takie jak ropa naftowa, gaz i węgiel, poważnie zanieczyszczają środowisko naturalne. Szczególnie szkodliwe jest wydzielanie się dwutlenku węgla i tlenków siarki podczas eksploatacji tych zasobów.
Znaczący potencjał surowcowy energii nietradycyjnych zasobów tkwi w wodach i dnie Morza Czarnego, które jest naturalnym reaktorem geobiotechnologicznym, zdolnym do produkcji różnorodnych surowców energetycznych.
W artykule omówiono wykorzystanie siarkowodoru dostępnego w wodach Morza Czarnego do produkcji energii i użytecznych produktów przemysłowych oraz zaproponowano odpowiednie rozwiązania. Technologia ma również efekt ekologiczny w zakresie oczyszczania basenu siarkowodoru. W artykule omówiono również niektóre technologie rozdziału siarkowodoru na wodór i siarkę. Przedstawiono również oszacowanie wartości opałowej siarkowodoru w wodach Morza Czarnego.
