Simulation and Techno-Economic Assessment of Hydrogen Production from Biomass Gasification-Based Processes: A Review

The development of low-carbon fuels from renewable resources is a key measure to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and mitigate climate change. Biomass gasification with subsequent gas processing purification promising route produce hydrogen. In the past decade, simulation-based modelling using Aspen Plus software has supported investigation future potential industrial applications this pathway. This article aims provide review economic assessment woody biomass gasification-based hydrogen production, focus on evaluation model accuracy in predicting producer composition comparison experimental data depending approach implemented. comprehensive models, which integrate purification, highlights how downstream could improve quality syngas and, thus, yield. information provides an overview current practices, challenges, opportunities for research, particularly pathway production based gasification. Moreover, includes techno-economic processes, will be useful implementation at industrial-scale.
