[1G02] Ammonia direct combustion

○Hideaki Kobayashi1 (1. Institute of Fluid Science, Tohoku University)

Keywords:ammonia combustion, energy carrier, decarbonization

Decarbonization of the energy sector is an urgent issue to address climate change. The advantage of ammonia, a carbon-free fuel with low storage and transportation costs for mass transportation from overseas, has been recognized, and there is an urgent need to establish a value chain from production and transportation to utilization. In particular, the development of ammonia direct combustion technology, in which ammonia is used as a fuel without decomposing it into hydrogen, is being promoted. In this presentation, the technology of ammonia direct combustion and the background in terms of combustion science will be explained.
