Utilization of low-grade iron ore in ammonia decomposition
Due to its cleanliness, fast energy cycle, and convenience of energy conversion, hydrogen has been regarded as the new energy source. Conventional process to produce hydrogen yield large amount of CO as byproduct. Moreover, the hydrogen storage and transportation have become the drawbacks in hydroge...

Due to its cleanliness, fast energy cycle, and convenience of energy conversion, hydrogen has been regarded as the new energy source. Conventional process to produce hydrogen yield large amount of CO as byproduct. Moreover, the hydrogen storage and transportation have become the drawbacks in hydrogen economy. Thus, there has been increased interest in the hydrogen transportation medium as alternatives from the conventional process to produce and transport hydrogen. Ammonia has drawn worldwide attention as the most reliable hydrogen transportation medium. Through the decomposition of ammonia, hydrogen and nitrogen gas were produces as the byproduct without any CO or CO2 emission. In this experiment, the ore were introduced as the medium for ammonia decomposition. The ore were put into quartz tube reactor and were dehydrated at 400°C for 1 hour, then hydrogen reduced for 2 hours before and undergone ammonia decomposition at 500-700°C for 3 hours.
