Ammonia as a H2 carrier
» 637.6 KiB - 3,904 hits - December 1, 2008
Appears to be an independent assessment of the pros and cons of ammonia as a hydrogen carrier / fuel for ICs. Overall fairly favourable - indicates that hydrogen is likely to be far more dangerous as a fuel than ammonia and very hard to transport. States that effectively ammonia can be made to have zero tailpipe emissions and can be used at the same engine efficiency as diesel. Caddy EcoFuel 26.02.08
