Starfire Energy Inc is in the business of developing modular systems designed to make clean electricity. The company's modular systems produce carbon-free NH3 (ammonia) fuel from air and water using clean electricity sources such as wind or solar and NH3 uses a patent-pending catalyst, novel gas removal method and specialized reactor, enabling clients to avail long term energy storage which can be used as a transportation fuel and is a cost-effective carrier of hydrogen. Starfire Energy is building a 10 kg/day NH3 synthesis system using its low pressure Rapid Ramp NH3 process. The system includes hydrogen production by proton exchange membrane electrolyzer, nitrogen production by pressure swing adsorption, NH3 synthesis, and liquid NH3 storage. The tight coupling of the hydrogen, nitrogen, and NH3 processes require minimal reactant buffering. The system design, status, and preliminary performance will be discussed.
