Gasification of glycerol for hydrogen production in supercritical water was studied in a fluidisation bed system with the presence of Na2CO3 and ZnCl2. The experiment results show that temperature is the key factor and pressure has a minor effect on glycerol gasification. Higher temperature and pressure are in favor of glycerol gasification. Gasification performance of glycerol decreases with the increasing concentration, and 35wt. % glycerol was gamified stably during long time operations. Gasification efficiency increases and molar fraction of CO decreases with Na2CO3 addition. ZnC12 addition has no significant effect on the gasification efficiency, but it improves the selectivity of hydrogen in gas product. It is implied that the supercritical water fluidisation bed system is effective for hydrogen production by biomass gasification.
