Abstract
This paper presents hydrogen production methodologies, their impacts on the environment, and mitigation. Three different types of production procedures, namely fossil fuel-based, renewable energy-based, and biological, are presented along with their key technological characteristics and environmental feasibility. The effects of greenhouse gas emissions from its production on different natural cycles are carried out to show the environmental impact. Different production methods, problem identification, and mitigation of environmental impacts are separately pointed out. Analyses are shown for available methods in terms of their production cost, efficiency, maturity level, advantages, problems, and solutions. A comparative analysis is carried out along with different existing methods to find a suitable H2 production method. Finally, the transition pathway from fossil fuel to biohydrogen production is intended to promote biohydrogen for transportation and industrial applications. It demonstrates the possibility and potentiality of biohydrogen production for a sustainable future.
期刊介绍:
Bioresource Technology publishes original articles, review articles, case studies, and short communications covering the fundamentals, applications, and management of bioresource technology. The journal seeks to advance and disseminate knowledge across various areas related to biomass, biological waste treatment, bioenergy, biotransformations, bioresource systems analysis, and associated conversion or production technologies.
Topics include:
• Biofuels: liquid and gaseous biofuels production, modeling and economics
• Bioprocesses and bioproducts: biocatalysis and fermentations
• Biomass and feedstocks utilization: bioconversion of agro-industrial residues
• Environmental protection: biological waste treatment
• Thermochemical conversion of biomass: combustion, pyrolysis, gasification, catalysis.
