Abstract :
Ammonia is considered a potential environment for hydrogen storage, and the energy obtained from the decomposition of ammonia is considered a clean fuel. Ammonia is considered safe due to its high auto-ignition temperature, low compression pressure, and lower gas density than air. Ammonia can be produced from a variety of primary energy sources, including renewable energy, fossil fuels, and excess electricity. This review describes several potential technologies in current and future conditions for ammonia production, storage, and utilization. Ammonia production includes the Haber-Bosch cycle, electrochemical and thermochemical processes that are currently accepted. In this study, methods of energy extraction from ammonia are also discussed. Finally, it examines the storage and transportation conditions of ammonia.
