![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Evaluation of hydrogen production methods using the Analytic Hierarchy Process Evaluation of hydrogen production methods using the Analytic Hierarchy Process](/preview/png/1283176.png)
In this paper, seven common hydrogen production processes are evaluated using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) in respect to five criteria. The processes to be evaluated are steam methane reforming (SMR), partial oxidation of hydrocarbons (POX), coal gasification (CG), biomass gasification (BG), the combination of photovoltaics and electrolysis (PV–EL), the combination of wind power and electrolysis (W–EL) and the combination of hydropower and electrolysis (H–EL). The selected criteria that were used in the evaluation, for each of the seven hydrogen production processes are CO2 emissions, operation and maintenance costs, capital cost, feedstock cost and hydrogen production cost. According to the evaluation, the processes that combine renewable energy sources with electrolysis (PV–EL, W–EL and H–EL) rank higher in classification than conventional processes (SMR, POX, CG and BG).
