JERA’s Decarbonization Initiatives: Exploring results from the ammonia power generation demonstration at Hekinan
Emission performance of ammonia-fueled, four-stroke marine engines
We explore recent, full-scale, four-stroke engine testing results from IHI and Wärtsilä. Testing indicates N2O emissions can be almost fully eliminated with catalytic treatment, and significantly lower NOX emissions for engines running in ammonia mode, compared to running on diesel. While ammonia slip remains a key consideration due to the design of a four-stroke engine, catalytic treatment of the exhaust can eliminate even high concentrations, and release mitigation systems have already been designed and deployed to ensure safe operations.
Duiker Clean Technologies: FID reached for pilot ammonia cracking facility
Duiker Clean Technologies will construct and operate an industrial-scale pilot plant for its ammonia cracking technology in the Netherlands, thanks to government and EU funding.
Marubeni & Exxon: CCS-based ammonia from the Gulf Coast to Japan
Marubeni will offtake about 250,000 tons per year of CCS-based ammonia from ExxonMobil’s Baytown Texas facility, to be co-fired at the Kobe power plant in Japan. Marubeni joins Trammo, ADNOC, Mitsubishi, Air Liquide and SK Inc. as project partners, with a series of offtake agreements already signed.
Emission performance of ammonia-fueled, two-stroke marine engines
We explore recent, full-scale, dual-fuel engine testing results from leading maritime vendors such as MAN Energy Solutions and WinGD. Testing indicates negligible emissions of the potent GHG N2O (which can be fully eliminated with catalytic treatment), and significantly lower NOX emissions for engines running in ammonia mode, compared to running on fuel oil or diesel. Overall, compliance with IMO Tier II and III emission limits is well within reach for the first generation of ammonia-fueled maritime engines.
Ammonia fuel for industrial ceramics manufacturing
In the latest episode of Project Features, Foshan Xianhu Laboratory and Monalisa Group explored a recent demonstration of ammonia combustion for industrial fabrication of ceramic tiles in China. Retrofits of the gas-powered production lines, safe, low-emission ammonia combustion, a multi-level DeNOX approach, target markets, and future ammonia fuel demand potential in China were discussed.
