Onboard ammonia cracking based on integrated membrane reactors
H2SITE develops on-board ammonia cracking solutions incorporating integrated membrane reactors, which may be key to the decarbonization as they provided the highest overall efficiency of any fuel-to-power solution. Ammonia-to-hydrogen cracking technology aims to enhance the use of hydrogen on board vessels by improving fuel density. Instead of storing hydrogen directly, ammonia is bunkered and then cracked into hydrogen, maximizing efficiency and minimizing emissions. This allows ammonia to be used efficiently and flexibly for internal combustion engine and fuel cell applications.
