Abstract
One embodiment of a low to high temperature energy conversion system includes a decomposition chamber in which ammonia (NH.sub.3) is decomposed into hydrogen and nitrogen by absorbing heat of decomposition from a low temperature, e.g., 300.degree. C energy source. The separated hydrogen and nitrogen are then supplied to a recombination chamber wherein they recombine to produce ammonia. The recombination process is associated with a significant increase in temperature, used to increase the temperature of a fluid to temperatures on the order of 500.degree. C.
