Hyundai conducted a type approval test for the world’s first ammonia direct injection engine

HD HHI conducted a successful type approval test for its first model of the HiMSEN ammonia dual-fuel engine, the ‘H22CDF-LA,’ at its Engine Techno Center in Ulsan, South Korea.

By developing this 1.4 to 2.2MW ammonia dual-fuel engine, HD HHI has enabled its application not only for ammonia carriers and general commercial vessels but also for land-based power generation. The ‘H22CDF-LA’ is the world’s first ammonia high-pressure direct injection engine, designed to minimize greenhouse gas emissions by using carbon-free ammonia as fuel. The engine controls nitrogen oxides (NOx) and unburned ammonia emissions in exhaust gases, effectively reducing the concentration of ammonia emissions using only a Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system.

This breakthrough in ammonia dual-fuel engine development builds on the success of HD HHI’s H32DF-LM methanol dual-fuel engine, which was the world’s first of its kind, launched in 2022.

HD HHI representative stated, “Based on this classification society approval, we will continue to lead the ammonia-fueled shipbuilding market and drive the future of the eco-friendly shipping industry.”
