  • Abstract
    Hydrogen has the potential to be a sustainable alternative to the fossil fuels currently used in the transportation sector. The aim of our study is to appoint that producing hydrogen from biomass can be considered a green technology. There are three options for producing hydrogen from biomass. Our efforts must be focused on maximizing the reforming and shift conversions along with maximum economical recovery of hydrogen from the PSA. This work demonstrates that hydrogen can be produced economically from biomass. The pyrolysis-based technology, in particular, because its coproduct opportunities, has the most favorable economics.
