Abstract: To improve the economics of biomass fast-pyrolysis, the aqueous phase derived from fast-pyrolysis was reformed with bio-oil to produce hydrogen by using Ni-base catalyst in this paper. The effects of reaction conditions such as steam-to-carbon ratio, temperature and reaction time on catalytic reforming were studied and the results indicated that the developed process was effective and feasible.
