AMMONIA, NITROGEN, AND GREEN HYDROGEN PRODUCTION & PURIFICATION
The paper delves into the production of hydrogen from different electrical energy sources, emphasising electrolyser technology
and its integration with renewable energy generation systems.
Additionally, it explores alternative pathways such as biomass for hydrogen production, offering a comparative analysis of
various hydrogen production technologies.
The nitrogen separation section dissects prevalent methods including cryogenic distillation, Pressure Swing Adsorption
(PSA), and membrane permeation. A thorough comparison of nitrogen separation alternatives is presented, accompanied by
considerations of oxygen volumes and achievable purity levels.
The paper investigates the traditional Haber-Bosch process for ammonia production and extends its focus to variations such
as low-pressure Haber-Bosch, absorbent/adsorbent-enhanced Haber-Bosch, electrochemical synthesis, and thermocyclic
production.
The edition also provides insights into other emerging technologies for ammonia production, concluding
with a comparison of these alternatives and ammonia quality considerations.
