A new patent by Duiker Combustion Engineers B.V. elaborates on an innovative process for efficiently producing hydrogen through the thermal reforming of ammonia. Thermal Reforming of Ammonia The patented process revolves around the thermal reforming of ammonia to extract hydrogen. The method utilizes an ammonia cracking reactor paired with a catalyst chamber and a staged combustion unit. The catalytic cracking of ammonia is central to this process, enabling the production of hydrogen from ammonia at elevated temperatures. Two-Stage Combustion Unit The process employs a two-stage combustion unit that serves to efficiently manage the heat necessary for cracking ammonia. In the…
Engaging in feats as daunting and profound as space exploration, China’s recent successful drilling of Asia’s deepest vertical well, Shenditake 1, introduces groundbreaking insights into both scientific and industrial domains. Situated amidst the vast landscape of the Taklimakan Desert in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, this accomplishment marks not merely a technological triumph but a new horizon for geological and resource exploration. Initiated by the China National Petroleum Corp, the drilling of this 10,910-meter borehole is not just an achievement in terms of depth but also signifies a major advance in the study of the Earth’s geological layers and the…
As the EU navigates its ambitious climate goals, Poland’s initiative to enhance its electric public transportation infrastructure by installing electric bus charging stations represents a significant step forward.
South Korea has unveiled an ambitious strategy to bolster its nuclear energy capacity, targeting the construction of two new nuclear reactors and a small modular reactor (SMR) by the year 2038.
A recent move by a prominent Chinese lithium company to suspend technology exports has injected a fresh dose of uncertainty into global markets. This decision comes amid escalating trade tensions, particularly with the United States, and raises questions about the broader implications for the tech and electric vehicle (EV) industries. Last year, the global lithium market was valued at approximately $6 billion, driven by the expanding demand for lithium-ion batteries used in various tech applications and EVs. The market has been predicted to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of nearly 11%, according to analysts. However, China’s decision…
The Netherlands announced plans to construct a 1.4 gigawatt battery storage facility, integrating Tesla batteries at its core. This ambitious project is set to solidify the nation’s stance in renewable energy advancements and storage solutions. The facility aims to bolster the grid’s reliability and sustainability. As energy demand fluctuates, such infrastructures are essential for storing excessive renewable energy generated during low demand, thus making it available during peak periods. Technological implementation involves leveraging Tesla’s advanced energy storage solutions, touted for their efficiency and scalability. This initiative aligns with the European Union’s broader objective to reduce carbon emissions by 55% by…
A hybrid approach combining Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) with hydrogen (H2) storage has shown promise in mitigating limitations.
Korean battery-makers, namely LG Energy Solution, SK On, and Samsung SDI, are preparing for the competitive surge triggered by CATL’s European expansion. Market trends indicate CATL’s aggressive growth, leveraging its position as a global leader with a 33% market share in the electric vehicle (EV) battery sector according to SNE Research. As these Korean giants strive to maintain a foothold, they confront the reality of CATL’s strategic maneuver to establish multiple gigafactories across Europe, catalyzing an intensified competition in a market predicted to hit 300 GWh by 2030. This expansion is fueled by CATL’s ability to optimize production costs and…
