The new subproject CF06_6 “Microstructured process-intensified Haber-Bosch reactor” started on January 1st, 2024. The production of ammonia from renewable energies is one of the main tasks of the CAMPFIRE alliance. The aim of this sub-project is to expand and optimize a reactor concept for the synthesis of ammonia. The power density of the Haber-Bosch reactor will…
Zukunft Gas provides information with exciting events and digital formats on the topics of green gas, hydrogen, the heating market, infrastructure, mobility and logistics. Jens Wartmann, Head of Strategy and Technology at CAMPFIRE, joined Eric Zindel (Siemens Energy) and Peter Steinmüller (Mainova) at Energie Studio Berlin for an exciting exchange on the current status of…
In order to speed up the decarbonization of shipping, the CF08_2 project is developing an ammonia-powered, containerized inland vessel propulsion system with 350 kW propulsion power and evaluating it ” on-land”. Figure 1 shows a schematic representation of the propulsion system. To improve the ignition and efficient conversion of the ammonia in the engine, a…
Within the frame of the CAMPFIRE project CF09 GreenBalticCruising, our partner IKEM has published two further papers dealing with the legal framework for decarbonizing shipping and the use of ammonia in the Baltic Sea. “Clean alternatives are not competitive under the current regulatory framework and in the face of continued low carbon prices. As part…
We are very grateful for the opportunity for our partner alliance to participate in the regional conference “Nachhaltig. Regional. at the Digital Innovation Center Rostock GmbH. In a great panel together with Tom Rückborn (WindEnergy Network e.V.), Dorian Holtz (Theta Concepts GmbH) and Peter Sponholz (APEX Group), superbly moderated by Martin French (Wirtschaftsförderung Landkreis Rostock…
The market ramp-up of hydrogen opens up many new opportunities — for old and new industrial sites. The demand is enormous and the new value chains will change our world. The H2Brasil project supports the growth of green hydrogen in Brazil and aims to improve the technical, institutional and legal conditions for its viability.…
Great presentation by CAMPFIRE partner Martin Stoltmann TAMSEN MARITIM GmbH on a brilliant technical solution for integration of an ammonia cracker — ICE maritime drives into inland cargo vessels. This project is part of the CAMPFIRE project line Ammonia-powered Inland Vessel aiming at the conversion of an inland ammonia bunkering ship “Odin” of Spetrans GmbH…
Partners of the CF08_2 consortium for development of an ammonia-Cracker-350 kW ICE Genset for inland shipping could book a great success by publishing an article in the current issue of LNG & Future Fuel Report by Schiff & Hafen. Brilliant effort by Annalena Braun and Sören Berhardt at Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT), Liebherr Components…
It was a great pleasure for Angela Kruth from CAMPFIRE to moderate this impressive panel on green ammonia. Ann-Kathrin Merz (First Ammonia), Ashwani Dudeja (ACME Group), Elli Varkaraki (Yara International), Paolo Brunengo (KBR) and Paul Cox (Proton Ventures). Our main message was that Ammonia is a safe fuel and a cost-efficient way to store and…
