    摘要: A process for ammonia synthesis in a synthesis circuit may involve circulating a gas mixture comprising nitrogen, hydrogen, and ammonia with a conveying device (2) in the synthesis circuit, reacting nitrogen and hydrogen at least partly to ammonia in a converter, and cooling the gas mixture in a cooling device such that ammonia condenses out of the gas mixture. The disadvantages of adsorption drying and of absorption are avoided as hydrogen and nitrogen are introduced at mutually different sections into the synthesis circuit. The process may also involve introducing nitrogen in a flow direction upstream of the converter and/or directly into the converter in the synthesis circuit.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for producing ammonia (1), wherein a carbon-containing energy carrier flow (2) and an oxygen flow (3) from an oxygen-producing assembly (4) are fed to a synthesis gas reactor assembly (5) for obtaining a synthesis gas flow (6) with hydrogen and carbon oxides, wherein the synthesis gas flow (6) is fed to an adsorption device (7) for separating the synthesis gas flow (6) into a hydrogen flow (8), which comprises hydrogen, and a purge flow (9), and wherein the hydrogen flow (8) and a nitrogen flow (10) are fed to an ammonia reactor assembly (11) and converted into ammonia (1) there. The method is characterized in that the purge flow (9) is fed to a recovery device (12), which obtains a hydrogen-containing recovery flow (13) from the purge flow (9) and discharges a waste gas flow (14) therefrom, and that the hydrogen of the recovery flow (13) is at least partly fed to the ammonia reactor assembly (11) for conversion into ammonia (1). The invention also relates to a corresponding system for the production of ammonia (1).

    摘要: An ammonia derivative production plant includes: an electrolyzer for electrolyzing water; an ammonia synthesis system for synthesizing ammonia from hydrogen produced by the electrolyzer and nitrogen; a carbon dioxide generation system for producing carbon dioxide; and an ammonia derivative synthesis system for synthesizing an ammonia derivative from ammonia synthesized by the ammonia synthesis system and carbon dioxide produced by the carbon dioxide generation system. Oxygen produced by the electrolyzer is consumed to produce carbon dioxide by the carbon dioxide generation system.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for the synthesis of ammonia, in which a fresh gas consisting largely of hydrogen and nitrogen is compressed via a compressor and subsequently fed to an ammonia converter for conversion into a converter product containing ammonia and comprising hydrogen and nitrogen. Upstream of the compressor, ammonia is evaporated into the fresh gas in order to cool the fresh gas and to produce a cold substance mixture comprising ammonia and the fresh gas. The substance mixture is heated in a heat exchanger against at least one process stream to be cooled, and subsequently compressed via the compressor, to obtain a compressed substance mixture comprising ammonia and the fresh gas. Upstream of the circuit cooler, a gas mixture consisting largely of hydrogen and nitrogen is fed to a substance stream comprising the fresh gas. The constituents of the gas mixture are separated from the converter product and/or from the compressed substance mixture comprising ammonia and the fresh gas.
