ABSTRACT

Based on its well-known merits, ammonia has been gaining special attention as a potential renewable energy carrier which can be replaced in power generation units. One of the major challenges with ammonia as a fuel is NOx emission, which has a complex underlying chemical kinetics. Continue reading

13th Annual NH3 Fuel Conference, September 20, 2016

ABSTRACT

Currently, China is facing a challenge of increasing its energy consumption and simultaneously decreasing its emissions. Particularly, the desire of owning a car is so strong in China that it cannot be easily mitigated by high pricing or taxing. This paper presents the statistical results of fuel consumption in China and predicts the fuel demand in near future, it then compares the fuel demand of China with the fuel production scale of the world. It is concluded that China must utilize clean alternative fuels to meet the fast increasing demand for automotive fuels.

The price, distribution infrastructure, and thermodynamic properties of methanol, ethanol, biodiesel, and ammonia are analyzed in order to assess the feasibility of implementing them as clean alternative fuels. Continue reading
