FuelPositive provides update on progress of its farm-ready green ammonia system
FuelPositive announced that its on-farm, containerized green ammonia production system is now over 80% complete and its farm readiness impending, having overcome global supply chain delays the company faced throughout 2022.
Both the H2 and nitrogen input modules are now fully operational, farm ready and are surpassing both quantity output and purity targets.
Nelson Leite, COO and Board Director, said, “We are thrilled with the near farm readiness of the system today. Final factory commissioning of our proprietary green ammonia synthesis module is currently underway, and the system will be producing green ammonia as soon as all safety certifications are completed. As illustrated in the photo collage below, our on-farm containerized Green Ammonia system is now a commercial scale, 100 tpy, highly engineered system that is monitored and controlled at over 140 points, which allows FuelPositive to measure and ensure, in real time, the most optimal operating parameters, onsite.”
“Additionally, the system is so robustly engineered that we expect the service life of our systems to be measured in decades, beyond the anticipated 30-year mark. In other words, these are permanent on-site systems, that will be producing green ammonia at a steady rate of supply and stable cost to the end-user for decades,” said Leite.
Manufacturing and R&D lab open and completed
The initial manufacturing facility and R&D lab at 99 Northland in Waterloo, Ontario is fully operational. The final validation of FuelPositive’s scalable and modular green ammonia technology is being conducted there, and batch manufacturing will be carried out at 99 Northland until the company is ready to move to the larger, purpose-built manufacturing facility.
FuelPositive has identified a site near its Waterloo facilities where it will be custom-building a factory with its land development partner. It will be a large, state-of-the-art facility, up to 140,000 square feet, and will meet the company’s needs when it switches from batch manufacturing to serial or assembly line manufacturing.
