Innovative Integration of Ammonia Cracking and Power Generation: Hanwha Impact’s H2ACT-HRSG Project

Tuan Hoang

The Hanwha Impact H2ACT-HRSG project introduces a novel and highly efficient flow-scheme that integrates ammonia cracking with heat recovery steam generation (HRSG), tailored for small-to-medium scale clean power applications. Developed in collaboration with KBR, this configuration leverages high-grade heat from gas turbine exhaust and duct firing to drive a series of adiabatic reactors, enabling efficient hydrogen production from ammonia while simultaneously generating steam for power. This innovative integration—termed H2ACT-HRSG—offers performance advantages over conventional stand-alone ammonia cracking systems in combined cycle power generation settings. Key benefits include enhanced hydrogen yield, improved net power generation, and reduced specific ammonia consumption, all contributing…

Pilot Operations of the AEA’s Ammonia Certification System

Madhav Acharya Nicholas Cook Sharon Paterson Chris Churchill Frank Yu

The AEA’s Ammonia Certification System has made steady progress since our 2024 annual conference, where we explored design decisions made in the development of the pilot system. In this session, we provide a full overview of the System as it enters pilot operations. Audience members will find out more about joining the pilot, more details about how the certificate registry will be used, and how the System can be utilized by companies along the ammonia value chain. The combined presentation covers two sections, including a registry walk-through with MiQ, and then a stakeholder discussion section featuring Envision and Tolero H2…

Global Partnerships to Connect the Value Chain

Tomoaki Ichida Radboud Godron Vibeke Rasmussen

In March 2025, Mitsui O.S.K. Lines (MOL) acquired Netherlands-based LBC Tank Terminals as part of a strategic move towards a “total chemical logistics service system”. The pair will leverage an impressive joint array of logistics infrastructure,working to unlock expanded future flows of ammonia. Meanwhile, Yara and MOL are ongoing partners in a series of first mover marine ammonia fuel projects, including time charters, to ship-to-ship bunkering demonstrations, and development of ammonia-fueled vessels. Learn more about the trio’s plans to connect to the full ammonia energy value chain.

Transforming Houston and the Gulf Coast for Ammonia Energy

Chad Carson Ian Rodwell Brett Perlman

The region is a hotbed of activity in the decarbonized ammonia and energy transition space, with project developers looking to leverage existing infrastructure, expertise and an experienced local workforce. This conversation features a number of organizations at the forefront of this regional movement. Join us on our opening afternoon to hear what makes the region an attractive prospect for developers, what local alliances & groups are doing to help streamline project development, and what future role Southeastern Texas and the wider Gulf Coast region can play as we move towards lower-carbon ammonia production.

CF Industries ships first low-carbon cargo to Europe

Julian Atchison October 06, 2025

23,500 tons of ammonia certified under the Fertilizer Institute’s Verified Ammonia Carbon Intensity (VACI) Program were loaded onto the Trafigura-operated Oceanic Star in Louisiana last month. The cargo is en route to Antwerp, where chemicals and materials manufacturer Envalior will use the low-carbon ammonia as a feedstock to produce the monomer caprolactam and downstream resins.
