Here, we explore the current demonstration landscape for large-scale cracking. To produce pipeline-quality hydrogen at future energy import hubs, industrial-scale ammonia cracking is still to be derisked and demonstrated, although certain parts of the overall process have been proven at scale. What are the technology elements to be considered, and who are the first-movers deploying the technology in a variety of global locations?

A Drop-in HB Catalyst to Reduce Synloop OpEx by up to 47%
Presentation

Copernic Catalysts, a Boston-based startup, has leveraged its proprietary discovery platform to develop a drop-in base-metal HB synthesis catalyst that strongly outperforms the best catalysts on the market under mild operating conditions. We are looking for partners in ammonia production/reactor design that are interested in testing our transformational catalyst technology.

Jupiter Ionics – scaling Lithium-mediated nitrogen reduction for Green Ammonia
Presentation

The Lithium-mediated pathway is one of the most promising avenues to Green Ammonia production at near-ambient temperatures and pressures, lending itself to a more decentralized production model than traditional chemistries. In this talk Dr Day will provide an update on the scale-up and commercialization of Jupiter Ionics’ electrochemical ammonia process, which builds on the foundational research of Prof Douglas Macfarlane at Monash University.

Ammonia for Boilers in Rural Locations
Presentation

Currently ~4.5 million tonnes of oil are consumed in the off-mains industrial market annually in the UK. These energy-intensive processes contribute to point source emissions of 14.2 MtCO2/y. Businesses and industries in these locations often cannot rely solely on electricity to satisfy their process heating requirements. Decarbonisation of these sites therefore presents a significant and pressing challenge. Therefore, the Amburn project will develop and demonstrate a 1 MW ammonia-fed steam boiler to help decarbonise off-grid businesses across the UK. Funded by the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero as part of the UK Government’s £55m Industrial Fuel Switching Competition,…
