Abstract:

Ammonia is not only a low-cost chemical material, but also has some advantages such as high energy density, convenient for transportation, and combustion without CO₂ emissions. Therefore, ammonia fuel is a novel clean energy with broad application prospects. Ammonia fuel has the potential to replace fossil fuels such as gasoline and diesel. Therefore, it can be anticipated that ammonia fuel would be a new way to solve environmental pollution and fossil energy shortages. This paper summarized physical and chemical properties and combustion characteristics of ammonia fuel, and compatibility of ammonia fuel and some materials was introduced as well. What’s more, the application research progress of ammonia-gasoline fuel, ammonia-diesel fuel and ammonia-heptane fuel was also summarized respectively. Furthermore, the opportunities and challenges of ammonia as a potential fuel were discussed. In particular, the problems of ammonia were pointed out, such as high energy consumption, toxicity and corrosivity, and combustion defects. Accordingly, the corresponding solutions were analyzed emphatically. Under the background of peak carbon dioxide emission and carbon neutrality, ammonia fuel had a late developing advantage in China.

Key words: ammonia, fuel, engine, emission characteristic, combustion characteristic
