Abstract

Hydrogen has been expected to increase its future use, due to its utilization in fuel cells. A method for generating hydrogen through dry grinding cellulose based biomass and polymer was developed. The mixture of cellulose and an addictive (inorganic compound) was subjected to dry grinding by a mill under air, then, the ground product was heated up to about 500°C in non-oxidative environment The gases were generated during heating. H₂, CH₄, CO, and CO₂ were detected. The mechanism for highly pure H₂ generating from the cellulose may be due to the formation of CaCO₃ as byproduct. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the 8th World Congress of Chemical Engineering (Montreal, Quebec, Canada 8/23-27/2009).
