AmmPower Corp. Engineering Lab Demonstrates 100 Watts of Power from Ammonia Powered Hydrogen Fuel Cell

TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / August 3, 2022 / (CSE:AMMP), (OTCQB:AMMPF), (FSE:601A) / AmmPower Corp. (the "Company" or "AmmPower") is pleased to announce the successful demonstration of ammonia cracking from the AmmPower Engineering Lab, located near Detroit, Michigan.

The Company's mission is to provide clean energy to the world through green ammonia. This requires the development of ammonia synthesis as well as ammonia decomposition technologies. AmmPower is working to provide solutions in both areas.

Ammonia decomposition, or ammonia "cracking", is the process of splitting ammonia back into its elements: hydrogen and nitrogen. AmmPower's ammonia cracking system successfully achieved close to 100% conversion as indicated by an NDIR (nondispersive infrared) gas detector. The observed ammonia concentration in the hydrogen produced was less than 0.1 ppm (parts per million). The "cracked" hydrogen was then used in a proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell, producing up to 100W of electricity. For demonstration purposes, the Company used the electricity to power an LED light.
