Advancing Clean Energy: The Role of Biohydrogen Technology
Abstract: The process of gasification turns carbonaceous materials derived from biomass or fossil fuels into gases, with nitrogen (N2), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen (H2), and carbon dioxide (CO2) being the main fractions. By reacting carbonaceous materials (coal, petroleum, and biomass) with a regulated amount of oxygen and/or steam at high temperatures, a thermochemical process known as gasification produces carbon monoxide and hydrogen. Methanol and chemicals like urea and ammonia, which are …
