Ammonia is considered a sustainable energy storage medium with zero carbon content. In this work, thermal catalytic cracking of liquefied natural gas (LNG) at elevated temperatures employing concentrated solar tower is considered to produce clean hydrogen (CO2-free) and studied in terms of life cycle emissions.
SunReis (Sustainable Utilization of Novel Renewable Energy Integration & Storage) is a research group at Hamad Bin Khalifa University, Qatar, led by Dr. Yusuf Bicer. The acronym is derived from 'sunrays', where “reis” means leader/president in Arabic and Turkish. The group’s research interests include sustainability, energy storage, energy carriers, hydrogen, ammonia, integrated energy systems, cooling, desalination, carbon capture & management and renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and ocean.
