The invention discloses a method for producing 
hydrogen through lignite chemical looping gasification based on a steel 
slag oxygen carrier, which comprises the following steps: step 1, respectively 
grinding steel 
slag and lignite, and conducting screening to be 120 meshes or less; 2, weighing the steel 
slag and the lignite according to the 
mass percentage; 3, conducting 
dry mixing for 15-20 min in a three-dimensional mixing 
machine; 4, filling a reactor with the mixed material, so as to enable the gas to be in full contact with the material and capable of passing through the material; and 5, introducing 
water vapor into the reactor in a 
nitrogen atmosphere, and continuously conducting reacting at 900-950 DEG C to obtain 
hydrogen. The method has the advantages that the pyrolytic steel slag is used as the 
oxygen carrier, the 
water vapor is introduced to react with the lignite in the 
nitrogen atmosphere to produce the 
hydrogen, the process flow is simple, the operation cost is low, and the 
raw material source is wide; and elements such as iron, 
magnesium, aluminum and 
calcium in the pyrolytic steel slag are fully utilized, on one hand, the efficiency of chemical chain gasification 
hydrogen production can be promoted, on the other hand, part of steel slag can be consumed, and reduction and 
resource utilization of industrial 
solid waste are achieved.
