Experience in H2-field processes
Hydrogen plays a very important role in the chemical industry as a precursor to many products. However, it is also recognized as an energy carrier and fuel. Furthermore, ammonia is considered an excellent candidate for hydrogen storage and transportation. This is due to its favorable thermodynamic properties. Thus, ammonia and hydrogen, considered separately and together, are recognized as fuels that can reduce CO₂ emissions. This presentation showcases our experience with NH₃/H₂/NG blend combustion. Additionally, we present and discuss a new pilot-scale power-to-X (P2X) installation.
