Steam stores a lot of energy (heat) and one needs a larger cooler to cool gas 
that has steam in it.

But what if we could convert the steam that is in the producer gas stream to 
hydrogen! Now we do not need as large of a cooler and do not have to dispose 
of toxic water. Furthermore we have a higher value fuel.


I wonder if this will help.
