An extensive literature survey has been conducted to compile and summarize experience with utilizing hydrogen and hydrogen-containing nitrogen-based compounds as alternative fuels in combustion-based processes with particular focus upon the impact upon performance of metallic materials, with additional discussion of perceived gaps and future needs.

Combustion-based energy production systems contain numerous metallic components (incorporated into combustion systems, turbo machinery, heat transfer equipment, transfer piping, etc.) potentially impacted by incorporation of hydrogen or hydrogen-containing compounds into the fuel source. Summarization and discussion of observations documented in the literature will be discussed.

Incorporation of hydrogen-containing fuel into the combustion stream for internal combustion engines utilized by the transportation industry can have implications upon engine performance parameters as well as performance of components. Performance accounts of trials in the industry are discussed and summarized.

Potential effects of increased hydrogen-containing compounds into fuel sources and elevated- temperature process streams upon process parameters and materials of construction are summarized.
