Overview of Novel Hydrogen and Ammonia Production Research at CERL
Abstract
For the past ten years we have been performing cutting-edge research on the development, modeling, analysis, building and testing of novel hydrogen and ammonia production systems at the Clean Energy Research Laboratory (CERL) in the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science of University of Ontario Institute of Technology (UOIT). These systems are essentially critical for non-fossil fuels based and hence sustainable solutions for the targeted hydrogen economy and offer carbon-free technologies for the province of Ontario in specific and the world at large. For hydrogen production, the research primarily focuses on thermochemical and hybrid cycles, photoelectrolysis, pohotocatalysis, and photoelectrochemical processes and related technologies. In regards to ammonia production, the focus is essentially put on electrolysis, gasification and electrochemical based systems. Such systems and related technologies are developed to be brought to the commercialization phases for the local and international markets. This particular presentation will discuss all these clean hydrogen and ammonia production systems and related technologies as well as their applications in various sectors, ranging from transportation to industrial.
