Analysis of the Application Prospects of Ammonia Fuel in the Maritime Industry
In the context of IMO formulating a ship greenhouse gas emission reduction strategy and domestic policies proposing carbon emission reduction and carbon peaking targets,the green and low-carbon development of the maritime industry is urgent.As an ideal substitute for traditional fossil fuels,ammonia provides a new fuel option to solve the problems of greenhouse gas emissions in the maritime industry.Ammonia fuel has the advantages of low production cost,sufficient output,easy liquefaction storage and combustion without producing CO2 and SOx,etc.It is a clean fuel with broad application prospects.Ammonia can either replace marine diesel and be directly used as fuel for ship dual-fuel engines,or it can be used as a raw material for ammonia fuel cells to provide power for ships.This article mainly introduces the characteristics of ammonia and its advantages and disadvantages as a ship fuel,the production status of synthetic ammonia,the development status and research progress of ammonia fuel-powered ships and ammonia propulsion systems,and provides a reference for the promotion and application of ammonia fuel in the maritime industry.
