NH3 in H2 for FC, breakthrough technology
NH3 as the H2 Carrier and breakthrough Method of NH3 decomposition Author: David Judbarovski, systems engineering, principle inventor, retired Abstract Here I suppose to offer the method of the hydrogen extraction from ammonia by its oxidation partly, at moderate temperatures. Such hydrogen can be served as a clean and cheap and non- poisoning fuel for H2-air Fuel Cells for high energy effective engines’ powering without any harmful exhaust being the water vapor and nitrogen only. At present, decomposition of ammonia needs noble metal catalysts, being very expensive and rare ones, so such hydrogen is very expensive, and it is a big obstacle for large-scale introducing it as a common technology in the world practice. . The problem of substitution the noble metal catalyst by something more cheap and common is a hot engineering problem being now not solved. (see Bell, T.E., Torrente-Murciano, L.
