Hydrogen was produced from water plasma excited in high frequency (HF) inductively coupled tubular reactor. Mass spectrometry was used to monitor gas phase species at various process conditions, Water dissociation rate depend on the process parameters such as ICP power, $H_{2}O$ flow-rate and process pressure, Water dissociation percent in ICP reactor decrease with increase of chamber pressure, while increase with increase of ICP power and $H_{2}O$ flow rate. The effect of $CH_4$ gas addition to a water plasma on the hydrogen production has been studied in a HF ICP tubular reactor. The main roles of $CH_4$ additive gas in $H_{2}O$ plasma are to react with 0 radical for forming $CO_x$ and CHO and resulting additional $H_2$ production. Furthermore, $CH_4$ additives in $H_{2}O$ plasma is to suppress reverse-reaction by scavenging 0 radical. But, process optimization is needed because $CH_4$ addition has some negative effects such as cost increase and $CO_x$ emission.
