Hydrogen Production from Fossil Fuels

A Review

  • Conference paper
Hydrogen Power: Theoretical and Engineering Solutions

Abstract

State-of-the-art of hydrogen production from fossil sources is briefly reviewed. Production from natural gas is emphasised, some new developments and special procedures are described. The possibilities for “CO2-free” hydrogen production are discussed. On-site production as an option for hydrogen fuel supply is also discussed.
