Gas to Ammonia
For small gas streams, the gas to ammonia (NH³) process provides an alternative to conventional gas applications. Ammonia is widely used for different applications. Its use as a feedstock for fertilizer industry commands the largest share of its utilization. Other uses for ammonia include the following:
- DeNOx process in power plants
- CO² capture processes
- Feedstock for chemicals production
- Direct injection into internal combustion engines
- Fuel cell systems
Design
A mini-Ammonia plant comprises the following systems:
- H² Generation unit : Steam Reformer to produce hydrogen from gas
- N² Generation unit : Pressure swing adsorption technology
- NH³ Synthesis unit : Compression stage, reactor stage based on optimized Haber-Bosch technology
- NH³ Storage : Pressurized storage tanks
