Green Ammonia
What is green Ammonia
Green ammonia is a carbon-free and renewable process of making ammonia used in agricultural fertilisers. The process involves using hydrogen from water electrolysis and nitrogen from the air, fed into the Haber process, all powered by sustainable electricity, to produce ammonia, NH3. Currently, ammonia is made using steam methane reforming, which produces 90% of the carbon dioxide emissions and consumes a lot of energy, making it not a green process.

How is Green Ammonia Obtain
Green ammonia is obtained by using water electrolysis to make hydrogen and obtaining nitrogen from the air. The temperature and pressure needed for the hydrogen-nitrogen reaction during the ammonia synthesis loop are powered using sustainable energy such as wind or solar energy. The output is carbon-free ammonia, also known as Green Ammonia, the primary feedstock for green fertilizers.

Why Green Ammonia
Green ammonia is important for decarbonization of ammonia production and achieving net-zero targets by 2050. It offers options for energy storage, zero-carbon fuel, and as a hydrogen carrier.
