Challenges in the Production and Deployment of Green Hydrogen from Bioresources

Hydrogen is a versatile energy carrier that can be produced from various energy sources and technologies. It can be transformed into electricity and methane to power homes and feed industry, and into fuels for cars, trucks, ships, and planes. Hydrogen can help tackle various critical energy challenges such as the decarbonization of a wide range of sectors, including transport, chemicals, and iron and steel industries where it is challenging to meaningfully reduce emissions. While electrolysis is attracting most the attention, the production of green hydrogen from bioresources such as biomass and biogas is relevant to fulfill the demand worldwide. This lecture will address the reforming and gasification pathways to produce hydrogen with a focus on the scientific and technical challenges associated with.
