Pilot project envisions ammonia-powered cars

摘要

Richland, Wash.-A small upstart technology company hopes partnering with the Port of Quincy will open the door for a new way to produce anhydrous ammonia - not only for low-cost fertilizer, but as the renewable energy of the future. Doug McKinley, whose NHThree LLC is located here, told Green Markets the port at Quincy, Wash., wants to build a pilot plant using his technology to produce anhydrous from nitrogen taken from the air, hydrogen from the water, and power from port's hydro-electricity. "Assuming your power source is non-polluting - which this one is - this is the cleanest way imaginable to produce ammonia," McKinley asserted.
