Autothermal reforming (ATR) of gas feedstocks is a well-established technology used in ammonia, methanol, and gas-to-liquid facilities. It is a popular process choice for many new blue hydrogen and ammonia projects that will be developed over the next decade. This premium article examines the ATR process as well as the autothermal reformer's design, catalysts, and materials. It also covers the major players and their operations, as well as a comparison to steam methane reforming (SMR) and a SWOT analysis.

The occurrence of fires in electric vehicles (EVs) is less common than their combustion engine counterparts, in total number but also in terms of the rate per miles traveled. However infrequent, it is extremely important to protect the vehicle's occupants and prolong the time for a fire to exit the battery pack for as long as possible.

Rapid growth in the Li-ion market is expected over the next ten years. IDTechEx forecast the Li-ion battery market will reach over US$430 billion by 2033. Electric vehicles (EV) and transportation will represent the largest market. By 2033, battery electric cars will constitute over 90% of Li-ion demand, by GWh, by 2030.
