#Formula1 is heading in the opposite direction to the world.
That seems sub-optimal.
#FormulaE is going the right way.
Now if #F1 was reducing the #Carbon content of its fuel, that could be interesting.
But high pressure or liquid #Hydrogen for combustion, or #Ammonia, or #Hydrazine or even high test #peroxide are not nice for spectators, or for drivers and marshals near a crash.Difficult.

Let's see, #Urine can produce #Urea , #Ammonia and add #Nitrogen to soil And what can add #Sulfur to soil? #Compost and #Manure! #BigAg's dependence on chemicals is ridiculous! We need #RegenerativeAgriculture on a local level to feed ourselves!

Oh boy. Plastics? Well, we need less of those anyways (and maybe actually recycle them?). Pharmaceuticals? Yeah, that's a BIG problem! Maybe manufacture them in smaller factories locally. As for fertilizer? Let's see... #Urea, #nitrogen and #ammonia -- all can come from urine! And sulphur? Grow more garlic and onions rather than use oil production byproducts. WTF!
"Around 30% of fertilizer products go through the Strait of Hormuz. Quatar is the world’s biggest producer of urea, a key input to fertiliser manufacture. The region also produces around 35% of the urea and 23% of the ammonia, another feedstock for nitrogenous fertiliser, which is exported globally. Sulphur, another component of fertiliser manufacture, is also produced in the region as a by-product of oil production."

India PM #narendramodi on vist to EU countries including #Netherland brought focus on #GreenAmmonia. #India's green ammonia export ambition face hurdles as #EU_Commission strict rules don't recognize India's #Green #Ammonia as 'green'. But India and a few EU nations like Netherland, Austria, Germany, France, others demand to make its stringent rules related to Renewable Fuels of Non-Biological Origin ( #RFNBO ) a bit flexible so that Indian companies can access the #EU market with confidence.

Ammonia is evolving into a clean energy contender. On Innovate & React, Kevin Rouwenhorst and I explore the low-emission ammonia ecosystem. We discuss how over 90% of conventional ammonia CO2 emissions actually come from upstream hydrogen production, the engineering challenge of flexible renewable plants, and its future as a maritime fuel.
What is the biggest bottleneck for scaling green ammonia?

Fixing Nitrogen for #fertiliser - #Ammonia production - is rather important. Suddenly 30% of the world's supply is blocked.
The FT comments are a rich seam of ignorance and stupidity.
Why electrolysing water is claimed to make an algal bloom seems entirely without sense.And if water is short, and solar only works in daytime, floating panels on the water, and hydrogenerate at night.

I have some concerns about the production of ammonia, especially if it depends on energy from fossil fuels, where they are getting their hydrogen from, and the impact of fuel leaks, but hopefully it's better than what shipping uses currently.

@urlyman Thorium Molten Salt Reactors, like China is having continued success with, provides high industrial level heat that's conducive to EV production. #TMSR also lends itself to #desalination, #SodiumIon batteries, #hydrogen and #ammonia production, medical isotopes, and even localized air conditioning because of high heat production in #MSR.
China's #BeltAndRoadInitiative is far more sustainable than most of the West's profit mongering.

Given sufficient electricity, we can make #Hydrogen in quantity without reforming Methane. The #Oxygen is a probably useful byproduct.
Given heat, pressure, and a catalyst, we can combine it with atmospheric #Nitrogen to make #Ammonia, a direct fertiliser, and starting point for Nitric acid and then #Nitrates. Among #AmmoniumNitrate 's uses is fertiliser for growng food.I think we might build an Ammonia plant next to a #fission boiler, and use #heat as well as perhaps #electricity from it.

Organic #molecules delivered from #extraterrestrial materials may have played a key role in supplying building blocks for #life on #Earth.
Now scientists report all five canonical #nucleobases—purines (#adenine and #guanine) and pyrimidines (#cytosine, #thymine and #uracil)—in samples returned from the C-type #asteroid (162173) #Ryugu.
Samples from Ryugu, #Bennu and #Orgueil, which have a similar mineralogy and elemental composition, show purine-to-pyrimidine ratios negatively correlating with #ammonia.
These observations indicate that the nucleobases in these samples may have formed via a shared pathway depending on the physicochemical environment of the respective parent bodies.
The detection of diverse nucleobases in asteroid and meteorite materials demonstrates their widespread presence throughout the Solar System and reinforces the hypothesis that carbonaceous asteroids contributed to the #prebiotic chemical inventory of early Earth.

Why can't we just reverse the Haber-Bosch process?
In the latest episode, I talk to Prof. Malte Behrens @SolidStateChemCatal_Kiel about ammonia as a possible hydrogen carrier.
We dive deep into the chemistry of ammonia cracking and explain why the classic iron catalyst loses its activity. Find out how alloying iron with cobalt might just be the solution to unlocking green energy transport via ammonia!
