Overview

This project aims to explore the underlying basic science of an energy efficient process to decompose ammonia into hydrogen and nitrogen gas. The development of a low temperature ammonia decomposition reactor would revolutionize utilization of ammonia as a hydrogen carrier, thereby facilitating the use of clean, sustainable hydrogen as a fuel.
