- Additional information
- Funded by the £24M FLEXIS project, in-flame NH2*/NH* chemiluminescence was utilised for the first time to elucidate changes in NOx production/consumption pathways with multifarious NH3/NH3-H2 flame configurations. NOx production remains the most significant challenge for the development of NH3 as a viable zero-carbon fuel, with primary configurations herein optimised to meet European standards (DIRECTIVE(EU)-2015/2193). Results were obtained at elevated pressure, with Cardiff one of two institutions having demonstrated such capacity with NH3 worldwide, hence contributing to the University’s leading international profile in NH3 combustion as recognised by industry (Siemens) and academia through presentation at the world-leading (http://www.combustionsymposia.org/2021/documenti/38thISOCProgramOnlineDRAFT.pdf).
