Cover Story: Hydrogen production from biogas has emerged as an important technology with continuous development, contributing to sustainable and clean energy generation. Specifically, steam reforming of methane is one of the most important methods for this purpose. The role of catalysts to make this process efficient is crucial, increasing the hydrogen yield with milder operating conditions. The aim of this work is to cover the main points related to catalytic steam reforming of biogas, from feedstocks for biogas production to hydrogen purification. A special emphasis was put on the influence of different variables on catalytic performance and the most common catalysts used, as well as the main deactivation mechanisms and their possible solutions, supported by recent studies.
