摘要

A novel process, which integrated with biomass pyrolysis, gas solid simultaneous gasification and catalytic reforming processes, was utilized to produce hydrogen. The effects of gasification temperature and reforming temperature on hydrogen yield and carbon conversion efficiency were investigated. The results showed that both higher gasification temperature and reforming temperature led to higher hydrogen yield and carbon conversion efficiency. Compared with the two-stage pyrolysis-catalytic reforming process, hydrogen yield and carbon conversion efficiency were greatly increased from 43.58 to 75.96 g H-2/kg biomass and 66.18%-82.20% in the integrated process.
