Could a Sour Natural Gas Process Convert Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) and Hydrogen Sulfide (H₂S) into harmless compounds?

Attend discussion on if an exothermic chemical reaction could contribute in the fight against global warming and climate change.

WHAT:

The Stenger Wasas Process (SWAP): A suite of hydrocarbon refining solutions that, in the laboratory, has been verified to rapidly reduce H₂S to below detectable limits by gas chromatography (under 4ppb) and may be able to convert CO₂ into carbon, water and sulfur industrially.  Discoverers of the SWAP invite academicians and experts to discuss the science and its potential contributions to the global warming solution.

WHERE:

Philip Alampi Auditorium, Rutgers University Cook Campus
School of Environmental and Biological Sciences
71 Dudley Road (corner of College Farm and Dudley Rd.)
New Brunswick, NJ

WHEN: Wed., Oct. 21

2:30 p.m. – 4:30 p.m.

Open Admission      Q & A Following

WHO:

Raymond Stenger and James Wasas invite members of the academic and professional communities on Wednesday, Oct. 21, 2009, to learn about the Stenger-Wasas Process (SWAP), proposing that a reaction between carbon dioxide (CO₂) and hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) eliminates both (2H₂S + CO₂ => 2H₂O + 2S + C) in a mildly exothermic reaction and could alter the course of global warming and impact escalating energy costs.  Hear and discuss the science behind the SWAP and its potential impact on the hydrocarbon industry.

PARTICIPANTS

• Raymond Stenger (B.S.,WV University ‘57)
• James Wasas (B.S., Rutgers ‘68)
• Wolf Koch, Ph.D, Chemical Engineering, University of Cincinnati (B.S., Rutgers ‘68), President, Technology Resources International, Inc.
• Gene Hall, Ph.D, Analytical Chemistry, Rutgers University (independent GC verification)
• Randa Fahmy-Hudome, Former U.S. Associate Deputy Energy Secretary

Stenger and Wasas will discuss the catalytic and recombinant science behind the reaction.  Dr. Wolf Koch will discuss the potential commercial applications.  Q & A will follow: Dr. Hall will answer questions about his independent chemical and gas chromatography (GC) analysis; Executives will answer questions about findings and verifications of thermodynamic and chemical kinetic results showing scalability of the SWAP.
