Incredibly cheap and zero-carbon NH3
Incredibly cheap and zero-carbon NH3. It is an important step towards the implementation of H2 energy from a dream to reality by following strategy. (1) distributed renewable energy generation, (2) well scalable NH3 production by the said RE energy on saveful places either not so far away of dense settlement, or for the NH3 storage tanks, (3) conversion of NH3 in electricity, of any schedule for powering.

(1) CO2 + H2 = CO + H2O + 41 kJ. (2) (CO + H2O) + 0.5 * H2O = 0.5 * (H2 + 0.5 * O2) + (CO2 + H2) = CO + 1.5 H2O = CO2 + 1.5 H2 + 0.25 O2 + 80 kJ of such thermochemistry + 41 kJ = 121 = USD 133 /Mmol heat. dG = 80 kJ + 6 * T, and totally Q(H) = USD 133 / ton H2. 0.5 N2 + 1.5 H2 = NH3 - 46 kJ. 46 Mmol heat * (0.3 effectiveness heat in electricity) * (0.03 tariffs) / 3,600 = USD 115.[1]. Here N2 is p...
