About this Research Topic
The excessive use of fossil fuels has caused an energy crisis and greenhouse effect. Developing clean and sustainable energy can adjust the energy structure and promote green and sustainable development. Hydrogen, as a promising energy source and clean fuel, has no harm to the environment and has become the most promising energy carrier in future energy. Therefore, seeking green and sustainable hydrogen production technologies with low energy consumption and cost is necessary. Biomass, as a zero-carbon renewable resource, is receiving increasing attention. Transforming biomass into hydrogen energy through thermochemical methods, including pyrolysis and gasification, is essential for biomass development. Biomass hydrogen production is considered a green and sustainable development technology with long-term growth potential and is expected to reduce environmental pollution and excessive resource extraction gradually.
This Research Topic aims to obtain the latest research on biomass thermochemical conversion for hydrogen production, focusing on the principles, influencing factors, and research status of pyrolysis, gasification, supercritical water gasification, and chemical-looping technologies. And they are involved in biomass thermochemical conversion for hydrogen production. It also proposes prospects for the future development of current technologies.
The themes of this Research Topic include, but are not limited to:
• Hydrogen production through pyrolysis,
• Hydrogen production through gasification,
• Hydrogen production through supercritical water gasification,
• Hydrogen production through chemical-looping.
