Techno-Economic Challenges of Green Ammonia as an Energy Vector presents the fundamentals, techno-economic challenges, applications, and state-of-the-art research in using green ammonia as a route toward the hydrogen economy. This book presents practical implications and case studies of a great variety of methods to recover stored energy from ammonia and use it for power, along with transport and heating applications, including its production, storage, transportation, regulations, public perception, and safety aspects. As a unique reference in this field, this book can be used both as a handbook by researchers and a source of background knowledge by graduate students developing technologies in the fields of hydrogen economy, hydrogen energy, and energy storage. Includes glossaries, case studies, practical concepts, and legal, public perception, and policy viewpoints that allow for thorough, practical understanding of the use of ammonia as energy carrier Presents its content in a modular structure that can be used in sequence, as a handbook, in individual parts or as a field reference Explores the use of ammonia, both as a medium for hydrogen storage and an energy vector unto itself

Emerging low-emission energy systems will depend on a range of energy vectors or fuels, for electricity, heating, storage and transport. Each has advantages and shortcomings, qualifying it for certain roles and applications. Liquid ammonia offers a higher energy density than liquid hydrogen.This book covers trends, developments and advances in research around ammonia combustion systems. It is suitable for engineers, researchers and technicians working with ammonia or hydrogen in combustion systems, as well as for advanced students, especially PhD and MSc students in related subjects.Ammonia Combustion Applications for Energy Systems begins by introducing the current and potential role of ammonia as a fuel. Further chapters address global distribution of ammonia, measurements in ammonia combustion, combustion systems for ammonia-fuelled gas furnaces and boilers, for gas turbines and other propulsion devices, internal combustion engines, economics, regulations and international scenarios, measuring techniques and insights into the ongoing unsolved challenges in using ammonia for fuelling energy systems.
