Bio-based renewable Hydrogen from Agro/forestry/biogenic Residues through Advanced Technologies BHARAT-EU
Turning biogenic waste into renewable hydrogen through advanced technologies: Leftovers from forestry and farming, like branches, wood chips and straw, contain a lot of energy. One way to use it is to heat the material with very little air. Instead of burning, it breaks down into a mixture of gases called syngas, made up mostly of carbon monoxide, hydrogen and carbon dioxide.
