Wood biomass was a promising renewable energy source that achieved carbon neutrality and alleviated the energy crisis. To enhance the conversion efficiency of wood to hydrogen, the catalytic combustion system of natural ores (dolomite, limestone and olivine) and wood chips was established. And the effects of the type, location, calcination temperature, content and diameter of catalysts were investigated on the temperature distribution and gas production. The results indicated that the combustion temperature of the hybrid bed was significantly increased with the catalyst addition. The dolomite and limestone particles promoted the hydrogen production, and the mole fractions of hydrogen were improved by 75% and 42%, respectively. When the dolomite was located above the wood layer, the hydrogen fraction was greatly higher than that of mixing with the wood. As the dolomite content increased, both of the hydrogen mole fraction and release time were enlarged obviously. Furthermore, the wood chips and dolomite particles with smaller diameters contributed to syngas production. And the hydrogen decreased with the increasing of air velocity when dolomite addition, which achieved the maximum of 11.2% at the velocity of 2 cm/s.
