氢的产生可以通过许多过程，包括电解水、富含氢的有机化合物的热催化重整和生物过程。目前，氢气的生产几乎完全通过电解水或甲烷的水蒸气重整来实现。生物制氢(生物氢)技术提供了广泛的制氢方法，包括直接生物热解、间接生物热解、光发酵和暗发酵。然而，这些技术在日常能源问题上的实际应用尚不清楚。本文首先对制氢单元进行了标准化，然后通过计算为不同尺寸的质子交换膜(PEM)燃料电池提供动力所需的生物氢系统的大小，比较了不同生物氢系统的产氢率。(C)2003年国际氢能协会。爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
Hydrogen may be produced by a number of processes, including electrolysis of water, thermocatalytic reformation of hydrogen-rich organic compounds, and biological processes. Currently, hydrogen is produced, almost exclusively, by electrolysis of water or by steam reformation of methane. Biological production of hydrogen (Biohydrogen) technologies provide a wide range of approaches to generate hydrogen, including direct biophotolysis, indirect biophotolysis, photo-fermentations, and dark-fermentation. The practical application of these technologies to every day energy problems, however, is unclear. In this paper, hydrogen production rates of various biohydrogen systems are compared by first standardizing the units of hydrogen production and then by calculating the size of biohydrogen systems that would be required to power proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells of various sizes.
