Explore a new report from India-based non-profit iFOREST, which sets out a roadmap for the decarbonization of urea production in India. On the supply side, electrolysis deployment for ammonia production and pipeline deployment to couple industrial CO2 emitters with existing urea production plants is key to reducing agricultural emissions.
Heidelberg Materials and partners will conduct a feasibility study on the use of ammonia as a hydrogen carrier for cement production. In the trials, a cracked ammonia fuel mix will power cement clinker production at Heidelberg’s Ribblesdale site in the UK.
