Oil and gas companies, and some governments, are more interested in looking like they are acting on climate change than actually acting on climate change.
Japan is furnishing $500 million (59.8 billion yen) to much-watched projects that will develop and demonstrate 100% fuel ammonia combustion technology for
While 2021 unfolded with some relief from the chaotic global pandemic that jolted the world in 2020, the year may be remembered for its extraordinary series of energy crises. After a cold snap prompted mass
In Japan, JERA and IHI Corporation will conduct a demonstration project under the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization’s “Development of Technologies for Carbon Recycling and Next-Generation Thermal Power Generation / Research, Development and Demonstration of Technologies for Ammonia Co-Firing Thermal Power Generation” program. This will be the world’s.
Jera, IHI plan ammonia co-firing plant in Japan
Japan s Jera and IHI Corp have had a grant application accepted for a programme to co-fire ammonia with coal in thermal power generation, they said on May 24.
The demonstration project will be conducted under the Japanese state-run New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organisation’s “Development of Technologies for Carbon Recycling and Next-Generation Thermal Power Generation / Research, Development and Demonstration of Technologies for Ammonia Co-Firing Thermal Power Generation programme.
“Looking to reduce future environmental impact, the demonstration project aims to establish ammonia co-firing technology by co-firing coal and ammonia at a large-scale commercial coal-fired power plant and evaluating both boiler heat absorption and environmental impact characteristics such as exhaust gases,” the companies said. The project will run for approximately four years from June 2021 to March 2025.
