Researchers run a gas turbine on pure hydrogen in world first

Gas turbines are found in aircraft, trains, ships, generators, pumps, compressors and all sorts of other places. They can run on a variety of fuels, but some 90 percent of them currently run on natural gas, a fossil fuel that produces carbon dioxide wh… Continue reading Researchers run a gas turbine on pure hydrogen in world first

First ammonia-powered jet flight in 2023: A roadmap to clean aviation

The entire airline industry needs to wean itself off jet fuel over the next few decades – but it’s still buying enormously expensive jet aircraft that are expected to keep bringing home the bacon for more than 20 years. Australian company Aviation H2 h… Continue reading First ammonia-powered jet flight in 2023: A roadmap to clean aviation
