Main methods to produce H2
Natural gas (methane) or coal (carbon) burns with air (or pure O2) along with steam (H20) to raise the temp to 1000 deg C or 2000 deg F. Resulting gases, when cooled, contain a large amount of H2

Hydrogen from methane
Previously - before coal gasification - the cheapest means of producing hydrogen was by breaking down methane from natural gas

Hydrogen from anaerobic bacteria
Some anaerobic bacteria remove 99.99% of the carbon monoxide (is this CO or CO2?) from their surroundings while producing H2 at 20 times their own volume per minute

Hydrogen energy sources
* Photolysis * Electrolysis * Thermal processes H2 can be released from water and biomass wastes by heating them to temp between 3000 and 5000 deg F)
