Abstract
Hydrogen generation systems and processes are described that facilitate on-board generation of hydrogen for use in internal combustion engines. A hydrogen generator converts diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) or other urea-based fluids into a hydrogen-rich product gas. In some embodiments waste heat from the engine is used to preheat the DEF for the hydrogen generator. Steam reformers, electrolyzers and fuel reformers that generate hydrogen using the DEF are described.
