The continuous fast pyrolysis (500 °C) of pine wood sawdust has been studied in a conical spouted bed reactor (CSBR) followed by in-line steam reforming of the pyrolysis vapours in a fluidised bed reactor on a Ni commercial catalyst. An analysis has been carried out on the effect reforming temperature in the 550–700 °C range, space time from 2.5 to 30 g_cat min g_volatiles⁻¹ and steam/biomass ratio between 2 and 5 have on the pyrolysis volatile conversion, H₂ yield and gaseous stream composition. The continuous pyrolysis-reforming process has shown great potential for H₂ production from biomass, with no operational problems and allowing for full conversion of pyrolysis vapours. Thus, a maximum H₂ yield of 117 g per kg of biomass was obtained at 600 °C, at the highest space time studied (30 g_cat min g_volatiles⁻¹) and for a S/B ratio of 4. This yield is higher than those obtained by other alternatives, such as direct steam gasification or bio-oil reforming. Moreover, the char produced in the pyrolysis step has been continuously removed from the conical spouted bed reactor in order to be upgraded following promising valorisation alternatives.
