Hydrogen production from biomass, a renewable resource, has been attracting attention in recent years. We conduct a detailed process design for cellulose-derived hydrogen production glucose using supercritical water gasification technology. Gasification of biomass in supercritical water offers advantages over conventional biomass conversion methods, including high gasification efficiency, elevated hydrogen molar fractions, and the minimization of drying process for wet biomass.
