Abstract: Hydrogen is industrially produced mainly from fossil fuels by the natural gas steam reforming, the coal gasification and as a by-product of the naphtha reforming. In the future, with respect of a lack of fossil fuels, hydrogen produced from water can play a very important role in the energy system. One of the way how to produce hydrogen from water are water splitting thermo-chemical cycles which replace thermal decomposition of water with several partial reactions. In the study, two most promising water splitting thermo-chemical cycles (Westinghouse cycle and Sulphur-Iodine cycle) were compared with two different processes for hydrogen production (coal gasification and coal pyrolysis). Results obtained from LCA of these processes are reported in the paper.
