In addition to its established uses, ammonia can be applied as a flexible long-term energy carrier and zero-carbon fuel. In common with fossil fuels, ammonia is both a chemical energy store and a fuel, where energy is released by the breaking and making of chemical bonds. For ammonia (NH3), the net energy gain arises from breaking nitrogen ...

Lead-acid (LA) batteries. LA batteries are the most popular and oldest electrochemical energy storage device (invented in 1859). It is made up of two electrodes (a metallic sponge lead anode and a lead dioxide as a cathode, as shown in Fig. 34) immersed in an electrolyte made up of 37% sulphuric acid and 63% water.
Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a powerful tool to identify direct and indirect environmental burdens associated with products, processes and services. A critical phase of the LCA methodology is the collection of representative inventory data for the energy and material streams related to the production process. In the evaluation of new and emerging …
Since most design information is uncertain at the early stages, BPS results are limited to comparing and classifying design options rather than precise energy predictions [33]. It must be noted that achieving a high level of accuracy is time-consuming and unrealistic, as the design is uncertain at the early stage [34,35].
