The functional unit of 1 kg of H2was adopted in the system boundaries, which includes 5 processes namely biomass collection and pre-treatment units (P1), biochar catalyst preparation using fast pyrolysis unit (P2), two-stage pyrolysis-gasification unit (P3), products separation unit (P4), and H2distribution to downstream plants (P5). Based on the life-cycle assessment, the hot spots in this process were identified, the sequence was as follows: P4 > P2 > P1 > P3 > P5. The end-point impacts score for the process was found to be 93.4017 mPt. From benchmarking analysis, the proposed straw-derived biochar catalyst was capable of offering almost similar catalytic performance with other metal-based catalysts with a lower environmental impact. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd PB - Elsevier Ltd KW - Benchmarking; Catalysts; Gasification; Hydrogen production; Pyrolysis; Straw KW - Bio chars; Catalytic gasification; Environmental footprints; Functional units; H-2/ production; Lifecycle analysis; Pre-treatments; System boundary; Wheat straws; ]+ catalyst KW - Life cycle KW - biochar; carbon; charcoal; hydrogen; metal; unclassified drug; biochar; hydrogen KW - biochar; biomass; catalyst; life cycle analysis; pyrolysis; straw; wheat KW - acidification; Article; benchmarking; biomass; catalysis; catalyst; climate change; ecosystem; ecotoxicity; environmental impact; gasification; greenhouse effect; life cycle assessment; nonhuman; polymerization; public health; pyrolysis; separation technique; biomass; wheat KW - Biomass; Charcoal; Hydrogen; Pyrolysis; Triticum N1 - cited By 39 Y1 - 2021/// A1 - Loy, A.C.M.
