Latest Research Posters Presented at 12th European Combustion Meeting 2025 

Cardiff University’s CEAT (Centre of Excellence on Ammonia Technologies) researchers presented the CAIPIRINH3A project at the 12th European Combustion Meeting 2025 held at Edinburgh, Scotland UK on 7-10 April 2025. This prestigious forum brings together leading researchers and experts from over 40 countries to share knowledge in combustion science and related disciplines, aiming to facilitate the transition to a carbon-neutral society while meeting societal energy demands. 

Dr. Aravind Balakrishnan and Mr. Ziyu Wang shared two significant posters part of CAIPIRINH3A project on the plasma assisted combustion of ammonia. The first poster focused on a novel strategy for combustion enhancement of NH3-air mixture using Gliding Arc Plasma (GAP), while the second poster was about Numerical investigation on the combustion characteristics of premixed NH3-air flames using GAP. The results showed that there is a 40-80% reduction in NOx with the application of plasma. Both these studies provide critical insights into the potential of GAP technique for advancing ammonia combustion technologies, offering promising applications for sustainable energy systems. 

CAIPIRINH3A remains focused on developing pioneering research in liquid ammonia-based systems. As interest in these technologies accelerates worldwide, their work is becoming increasingly vital to achieving a sustainable energy transformation. 

Stay tuned for more exciting developments from this groundbreaking research!
