ABOUT
REDSHIFT ENERGY



Technology Development Company



Red Shift Energy, Inc. is a privately held, Texas based C-corporation founded in 2017 that develops and commercializes proprietary applications of plasma technology for use in the energy and specialty gas industries. The Company’s Warwick, PA research and development facility is centered between and has working relationships with the well-known plasma physics research institutions -- Princeton University and Drexel University Plasma Institute. The Company will focus on two key development programs -- remediation of hydrogen sulfide in natural and associated gas streams, and the formation of carbon monoxide from carbon dioxide.

Oil and Gas Background



Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a common gas found on oil and gas work sites. It can be found at oil and natural gas well sites and as a by-product of petroleum refineries. However, it must be removed from these sources along with other contaminants like carbon dioxide, and nitrogen. As much as 30 percent of natural gas in the world is a "sour gas" because it contains hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide, CO2. Hydrogen sulfide is poisonous to employees and explodes easily, making it extremely dangerous on oil and gas drilling sites. Some companies burn off the H2S containing gas, however its combustion produces another dangerous gas: Sulphur dioxide (SO2), which combines with water to form sulfuric acid (H2SO4).

Technology Background



Plasma is one of the four fundamental states of matter (solid, liquid and gas being the other three). Plasma can be artificially generated by heating or subjecting a neutral gas to a strong electromagnetic field to the point where an ionized gaseous substance becomes increasingly electrically conductive, and long-range electromagnetic fields dominate the behavior of the matter. Plasma and ionized gases have properties and display behaviors unlike those of the other states. Plasmas can be created using thermal discharges, e.g., arcs, microwave and radio-frequency discharges, and cold discharges, e.g., dielectric barrier discharges, and corona, among other methods. The challenge is to link a suitable discharge with an engineering solution that creates the desired output. Plasma dissociation of H2S, which produces liquid sulfur (S) and hydrogen (H2), has been known since the early 1980’s. To make a plasma process commercially feasible, it must be energy efficient for its scale of use. Initial development efforts centered around refinery scale solutions, which, unfortunately, were not successful. Despite preliminary evaluations (e.g., the attached presentation made by the Argonne National Laboratory scientists) indicating favorable economics, most programs were abandoned. Red Shift found that its novel engineering solution for plasma dissociation of H2S can find its wide niche application in unconventional natural and associated gas production. Preliminary evaluations show that the plasma dissociation of H2S can be competitive with the scavenger technology at any reasonable level of energy efficiency and at a scale that the plasma technologies were tested earlier.
