What is the MJ kg of ammonia?
The energy content of ammonia is 18.8 MJ/kg (LHV), while hydrogen's is 120 MJ/kg [43].
How much energy is in a kg of ammonia?
Although H2 has the highest energy density per unit mass of all fuels (33.3 kWh/kg), ammonia has a significantly lower heating value, at 5.3 kWh/kg.
What is the specific energy of ammonia?
The specific energy of ammonia is 23 MJ/kg. Although the specific energy of pure hydrogen is 142 MJ/kg, this ignores the mass of the high-pressure tanks.
What is the energy density of liquid ammonia?
Ammonia has a higher energy density, at 12.7 MJ/L, than even liquid hydrogen, at 8.5 MJ/L. Liquid hydrogen has to be stored at cryogenic conditions of –253 °C, whereas ammonia can be stored at a much less energy-intensive –33 °C. And ammonia, though hazardous to handle, is much less flammable than hydrogen.
