Abstract: Hydrogen is a kind of ideal clean energy sources. Considering from energy source point of view and environment point of view, it is very important to develop technology of hydrogen production from biomass. Technology of hydrogen production from biomass mainly includes thermochemical and biological process. In the former process, biomass was gasified or liquefied, then reformed and shift reacted by water vapor to produce hydrogen. The research progress in the technology of hydrogen production from biomass by thermochemical conversion(including gasification, gasification in supercritical water; pyrolysis) was summarized in this paper and the typical technique for hydrogen production from biomass was also commented and viewed.

Key words: biomass, hydrogen, thermochemical conversion
