Abstract: Sodium borohydride(NaBH4) has high hydrogen storage density, which could be stored and transported under normal pressure and temperature in alkaline solution. Simultaneously, sodium borohydride emerged as hydrogen storage candidate for proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) and direct borohydride fuel cell (DBFC) system. But the development was constrained for the problems, such as the high cost of hydrogen production, the difficulty of regeneration and the need of noble metal catalyst. Many researchers have made many researches on the process of regenerating sodium borohydride, including industrial synthesis process and direct reduction process. The process of direct sodium borohydride reduction is an one-step synthesis method of heating sodium metaborate, magnesium hydride and magnesium in the presence of hydrogen or argon atmosphere. This is a fairly attractive process from the perspective of one-step reaction and high product yield, but there are some risks associated with high pressure, high temperature, and high energy consumption. In recent years, the process of mechanical-chemical reduction, especially high-energy ball milling process, has been studied too much. Sodium borohydride can be regenerated by ball milling at different speeds and ball milling time under normal temperature and pressure, and the regeneration process is convenient and economical. In addition, sodium borohydride can be synthesized by electrochemical reduction process with simple process and mild conditions, selecting appropriate electrode and electrolytic solution to product sodium borohydride in the electrolytic cell. However, the product yield obtained by this process is pretty low, furthermore, the mechanism had rarely studied. In this paper, the regeneration processes of sodium borohydride at home and abroad are reviewed. Industrial synthesis process, direct reduction process, mechanical-chemical reduction process and electrochemical reduction process are discussed. Meanwhile, the mechanism, process route and their relative merits of each method are summarized and analyzed.
