Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for processing ammonia. The system may comprise one or more reactor modules configured to generate hydrogen from a source material comprising ammonia. The hydrogen generated by the one or more reactor modules may be used to provide additional heating of the reactor modules (e.g., via combustion of the hydrogen), or may be provided to one or more fuel cells for the generation of electrical energy.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for processing ammonia. A heater may heat reformers, where the reformers comprise ammonia (NH3) reforming catalysts in thermal communication with the heater. NH3 may be directed to the reformers from storage tanks, and the NH3 may be decomposed to generate a reformate stream comprising hydrogen (H2) and nitrogen (N2). At least part of the reformate stream can be used to heat reformers. Additionally, the reformate stream can be directed to a hydrogen processing module such as a fuel cell.

Abstract: An apparatus includes an integrated heat exchanger and reactor module. The integrated heat exchanger and reactor module includes a heat exchanger channel, and a reactor channel which is thermally coupled to the heat exchanger channel. The reactor channel includes a layer of catalyst material that is configured to produce hydrogen by endothermic catalytic decomposition of ammonia, which flows through the reactor channel, using thermal energy that is absorbed by the reactor channel from the heat exchanger channel.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a catalyst, methods of manufacturing the catalyst, and methods for using the catalyst for ammonia decomposition to produce hydrogen and nitrogen. The catalyst may comprise an electrically conductive support with a layer of one or more metal oxides adjacent to the support and at least one active metal adjacent to the layer. Methods are disclosed for deposition of metal oxide and active metal, drying and heat treatment. The method of using the catalyst may comprise bringing ammonia in contact with the catalyst in a reactor. The catalyst may be configured to be heated to a target temperature in less than about 60 minutes, by passing an electrical current through the catalyst. The method of using the catalyst may comprise bringing the catalyst in contact with ammonia at about 400 to 900° C., to generate a reformate stream with a conversion efficiency of greater than about 70%.
