What Produces Hydrogen Sulfide

"Ask about the origin of hydrogen sulfide"

Between heaven and earth, there are many kinds of things, and the existence of hydrogen sulfide also has a reason.

Where the rot accumulates filth, hydrogen sulfide often occurs. Like at the bottom of a ditch, sludge accumulates for a long time, and all kinds of rot are mixed, in which fungi and insects breed and decompose. Organic matter is in an anaerobic environment, and through the action of microorganisms, sulfur is converted into hydrogen sulfide.

Furthermore, hydrogen sulfide can also be seen in volcanic land. When a volcano erupts, hot magma surges underground, carrying many substances out. Sulfur and other elements are combined under specific temperature and pressure conditions to produce hydrogen sulfide, which is ejected with volcanic gases and diffuses in the surrounding air.

There is also a hot spring on the side. The sulfur content in the spring water can also produce hydrogen sulfide if the environment is suitable and chemically changed. The gas is pungent and the smell is uncomfortable, but it is also the generation of hydrogen sulfide caused by natural changes.

As for mining, digging and deep, if the ore contains sulfur, it may be disturbed by mining, and interact with air and water, or produce hydrogen sulfide. People who work underground often need to be cautious to prevent the harm of this poisonous gas.

From this perspective, anaerobic decomposition of rot, volcanic activity, chemical changes in hot springs, and mining are all causes of hydrogen sulfide production.
