“…It can be formed from various sources of raw materials such as higher hydrocarbons, green house gases, refinery gases and renewable materials such as wood, organic solid waste, sewages and alcohols derived from biomasses [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24]. Out of these, methanol has been widely used as a liquid fuel for production of hydrogen by different conversion technologies because of its high H 2 content, low-cost, easy storage and convenient transportation [16,25,26,27,28,29,30]. Recently, many methods have been introduced for the production of hydrogen such as stream reforming of methanol and natural gas [20,21,27], partial oxidation of methanol [31,32,33,34], gasification of coal [22], and electrolysis of methanol-water [23].…”
