Abstract

Hydrogen production from biogas has received consistent attention due to the great potential to solve simultaneously the issues of energy demands and environmental problems. Practically, biomethane produced by purification/upgrading of biogas can be a good alternative to the natural gas which is a main reactant for a steam methane reforming process. Judging from the economic and environmental impacts, however, the steam biogas and dry reforming are considered to be more effective routes for hydrogen production because both processes do not require the carbon dioxide elimination step. Herein, we highlight recent studies of hydrogen production via reforming processes using biogas and effective applications for earlier commercialization.

바이오가스를 이용한 수소 제조는 주요한 에너지 및 환경 관련 이슈들을 동시에 해결할 수 있다는 장점으로 꾸준히 주목받아 왔다. 바이오가스 정제를 통해 얻은 바이오메탄 수증기개질은 천연가스 개질을 대체할 수 있는 좋은 현실적인 대안이다. 하지만, 경제성과 환경 유해성을 모두 고려한다면 바이오가스를 직접 개질반응에 활용하는 바이오가스 수증기 개질 및 건식 개질을 활용한 수소 제조가 보다 효과적이라 평가된다. 본 논문에서는 바이오가스 기반 추출수소 제조 관련 최근의 기술 이슈 및 개발 동향을 소개하며 향후 상업화를 위한 효과적인 적용 방향에 대해서 고찰하고자 한다.
