Provided are: a catalyst that is used in a reaction for producing hydrogen from an alkane without emitting CO2; a method of producing hydrogen without emitting CO2 by using the catalyst; and a method of producing ammonia using, as a reducing agent, hydrogen produced using the catalyst. The alkane dehydrogenation catalyst according to the present disclosure contains a graphene having at least one type of structure selected from an atomic vacancy structure, a singly hydrogenated vacancy structure, a doubly hydrogenated vacancy structure, a triply hydrogenated vacancy structure, and a nitrogen-substituted vacancy structure. The graphene preferably has from 2 to 200 of the structure approximately per 100 nm2 of the atomic film of the graphene. In addition, the hydrogen production method according to the present disclosure includes extracting hydrogen from an alkane by using the alkane dehydrogenation catalyst.
