“…The metals were selected owing to their activity in the decomposition of FA into CO 2 and H 2 . [39] Out of these, Pd/C was reported to be the most efficient catalyst, yielding 98 % SA in a fixed-bed reactor at 150 8C, 10 bar N 2 in a reaction time of 4 h. The yields obtained with Pt/C, Au/C, Ru/C, and Rh/C were 16 %, 24 %, 24 %, and 4 % respectively, which demonstrates that these metals have less tendency to transfer the hydrogen from FA to MA. Another feature of this process was the easy separation of SA from the downstream liquid by precipitation owing to its relatively low solubility in H 2 O.…”

Succinic acid is a “hot molecule” identified by United States Department of Energy as a substitute for petrochemicals with great scope for its production from biomass. It is used as an intermediate for the production of a huge variety of everyday consumer products with an addressable market share of billions of dollars. Succinic acid and its derivatives are mainly used as pharmaceuticals, adhesives, solvents, intermediates for polymer synthesis, and food additives. Succinic acid is commercially produced from petrochemicals and there is a deficiency of economically viable catalytic processes for its large‐scale production from biomass. Recently, a lot of biochemical routes have been devised to enhance its production from biomass resources, but such processes are time‐consuming and involve tedious separation procedures. Therefore, this Review focuses on metal‐based and metal‐free heterogeneous catalytic routes for the synthesis of succinic acid from biomass derived products. The presence of uniform channels, cavities, active sites of various strengths, and the unique surface structure of the heterogeneous catalysts are a few of the interesting features that promote their use in industrial processes.

“…Hydrogen is considered as promising energy carrier and the alternative fuel to fossil based energy sources as it could be generated from clean and green sources [1,2] . The promising future of fuel cells makes the high efficiency production and storage technology [3] of H 2 highly desired [4][5][6] . Formic acid (FA), as can be easily gained from biomass, is a safe and convenient hydrogen carrier because of its considerable hydrogen content (4.4 wt%), nontoxicity, liquid state, easy accessibility, and high stability under atmospheric environment [7] .…”

“…2 This issue is not relevant for biomass due to the fact that the generated fuels from biomass like ethanol and biodiesel can be utilized at any moment. [8][9][10][11] In countries with a plentiful quantity of geothermal energy, hydrogen production based on geothermal sources is becoming a primary energy sector. 3,4 Additionally, batteries cannot be considered as an applicable option on the condition of present technologies due to their actual restricted capacity.…”

Summary The major logics resulting in hydrogen production can be mentioned as fossil fuel depletion and climate change. In this way, hydrogen is produced with the help of numerous processes based on traditional and alternative energy resources like coal, natural gas, wind, solar, biomass, and geothermal energy. Over the past decade, the attention of research institutions and industry has been drawn to hydrogen, inspired by developments in renewable energies. Hydrogen production can be considered as an exceptional choice to make complete utilization of the renewable energy. Among diverse technologies, hydrogen production based on geothermal energy offers great promise. In this paper, initially a concise summary of present and advancing hydrogen production technologies is presented, and secondarily a comprehensive review of research associated with hydrogen production based on geothermal energy is provided. Thirdly, the process descriptions of geothermal‐assisted hydrogen production coupled with its technical, economic, and environmental aspects are addressed. Finally, comparative assessments of costs and environmental aspects related to hydrogen production based on different energy sources have been performed. In accordance with the results, the geothermal‐assisted hydrogen production cost based on electrolysis is competitively lower than other sources like wind, solar thermal coupled with natural gas, solar PV, and grid. Also, the same behavior can be seen for geothermal‐assisted hydrogen production cost based on thermochemical process.
