Hydrogen Module - Ammonia
Info on Products, Technologies, Production-Models for Hydrogen, Ammonia and Syngas
-
Ammonia is a Compound of Nitrogen and Hydrogen with the formula NH3.
A stable binary Hydride, and the simplest Pnictogen Hydride, Ammonia is a colourless Gas with a distinct pungent smell.
It is a common Nitrogenous Waste, particularly among Aquatic Organisms, and it contributes significantly to the nutritional needs of terrestrial organisms by serving as a precursor to 45 percent of the world's Food and Fertilizers.
Ammonia, either directly or indirectly, is also a Building Block for the Synthesis of many Pharmaceutical Products and is used in many commercial Cleaning Products.
It is mainly collected by downward displacement of both Air and Water.
Mass Production uses the Haber–Bosch Process, a Gas Phase Reaction between Hydrogen (H2) and Nitrogen (N2) at a moderately-elevated temperature (450 °C) and high pressure (100 standard atmospheres (10 MPa)).

Ammonia Product-Structure
All Products of the Main-Product Ammonia
The colors of Ammonia   (Links to Ammonia Sub-Product)
Green | Processes for manufacturing GREEN AMMONIA continue to use the Haber-Bosch Process. However, the Green Hydrogen used in the reaction is generated by Electrolysis of Water using Renewable Energy Sources. Methane is not used. The Solid Oxide Electrolysis can also generate pure Nitrogen, thus eliminating the need for Cryogenic Separation of Air into Nitrogen and Oxygen. |
Blue | Some companies are developing processes for manufacturing “blue” hydrogen. The basic process remains the same as for brown hydrogen except that the generated CO2 is not released to the atmosphere. Instead it is sequestered, i.e., stored underground, either directly or as a carbonate. When blue hydrogen is used in the Haber-Bosch process the ammonia product is also referred to as “blue”. |
Brown Black |
BROWN AMMONIA and BLACK AMMONIA are made respectively from the corresponding Brown Hydrogen Black Hydrogen (produced through Gasification of Coal) and produced in the conventional Haber-Bosch (H-B) Process. It has been been used world-wide for more than a century. |
Grey | Grey Ammonia is made from the corresponding Grey Hydrogen (obtained through Steam Reformingl) and produced in the conventional Haber-Bosch (H-B) Process shown in the sketch. It has been been used world-wide for more than a century. Although there have been many advances in the Technology since Haber and Bosch did their work in the first part of the 20th century, the required conversion of Methane to Hydrogen and Carbon Dioxide has not changed. |
