On-Shore NH3 Refueling System CF10_3 Project duration: 04/2021–03/2024 Partners: Aim of project: In order to take over ammonia imports as base load supply for large consumers, a shore-side transhipment facility for the future supply of ships (loading of transport ships as well as bunkering of ammonia-fueled ships) is designed in the subproject CF10_3 of the…
Ammonia to hydrogen fueling station CF10_4 Project duration: 01.04.2022 to 30.03.2025 Partners: Associated Partners: Aim of project: The research project has the goal of developing a plant for the production of hydrogen suitable for refueling from green ammonia. Cost-effective fine purification technologies for the product gas optimization of NH3 crackers are thus an important key…

Ammonia Marine Engine CF08_2 Project duration: 04/2021–03/2024 Partners: Aim of Project: On the way to implementing the energy transition, shipping must also be transformed into an emission-free and climate-neutral area of mobility. The use of “green” ammonia as a carbon-free fuel offers the potential to contribute to achieving this goal for future shipping. Against this…
In April, our second joint project in the product category PK1 CF05_1 “Development of an autothermal, quick-start ammonia membrane reactor based on mixed-conducting thin-film oxygen membranes for optimised processing of ammonia as a carbon-free maritime fuel” started and is funded with ca. 1.2 million € by BMBF WIR over a project duration of 24 months.…
In June, the kick-off meeting of the CAMPFIRE joint project CF07 “Development of the functional model of an ammonia-powered sport yacht with a hybrid system consisting of a solid oxide fuel cell and an engine” of the partners HanseYachts, sunfire, ISC, FVTR, ZBT, IKEM, YARA, autosoft and INP took place. The project is funded with…
In August, our joint project “Development of a concept for the emission-free operation of an inland waterway vessel with ammonia fuel” with the partners ZBT, DST, DNV, HOST, ISV, IKEM, Tamsen Maritim and Weiße Flotte, with a funding volume of € 1.2 million by BMBF WIR! started. The overall goal of the CF08 project line…
The three hydrogen lead projects are a central contribution of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) to the implementation of the National Hydrogen Strategy. Taken together, they represent the largest funding initiative of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research on the subject of the energy transition and provide a decisive impetus for…
On 14 July, we were pleased to spend a very exciting day with the team around Jörg Pfeifer — for a small contribution in the programme Umschau on sailing transport. Jörg Pfeifer is a reporter and coffee fan and travelled for 2 months as part of the crew of the two-masted schooner “Avontuur” — a…
On 9 July, our online partner workshop PK2 “Synthesis of Green Ammonia” took place, also in the form of a web event due to the pandemic restrictions. First, a report was given on the status of the collaborative projects running in the WIR programme — CF06_1 “Development of a decentralised production technology for green ammonia…
