Abstract

Hydrogen (H₂) has a high potential for future energy market. Recently H₂ has received significant attention for its use in various applications due to zero-emission risk. H₂ can be used in applications such as; in electricity generation, in H₂ fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV), in manufacturing industries, in fertilizer production, and most promisingly in energy transportation applications in the form of liquid H₂ or converting it into ammonia (NH₃). H₂ exists naturally with different hydrocarbons such as methane (CH₄), propane (C₃H₈), ethane (C₂H₆), however during the extraction of H₂ there is a scope of significant emission. Currently most H₂ production is from natural gas and coal, therefore, emission still exists in the process. H₂ can be produced from water by using electrolyzer. Although producing H₂ from low-carbon sources using electrolyzer is still expensive, but the cost of H₂ production is dropping with the use of electricity from renewable energy sources. Moreover, municipal solid waste (MSW) is a rich source of hydrocarbon and at the end of its life cycle, it goes to landfill, which results in a significant amount of emission to the air, soil, and water. This chapter presents and explains the potential of H₂ generation from MSW using gasification process. Gasification is thermochemical process that can convert carbon-based feed into H₂ rich syngas. The benefits of producing H₂ from wastes are also reported in this chapter. The outcome of this chapter can be used for the production of clean, safe, affordable, and secure energy in the form of H₂ from the abundant source of MSW.
