1. Introduction
Ammonia (NH3) is one of the most familiar compounds of nitrogen and hydrogen as well as one of the world's most valuable industrial and agricultural chemicals. Ammonia is used throughout the industrial world as a valuable fertilizer.
Ammonia and its compounds, primarily ammonium nitrate and other ammonium salts, replenish nitrogen in depleted soils. This greatly increases yields of agricultural crops, especially those that cannot obtain nitrogen from the atmosphere. The ammonia is converted to nitric acid, an essential ingredient in explosives, via the Ostwald-Bauer process invented by German chemist Wilhelm Ostwald (1853-1932) in 1901. During World War I, synthetic ammonia was used to manufacture ammunition after Germany's nitrate supplies had been cut off.
Commercial ammonia synthesis takes place in large steel reactors that are designed to withstand very high pressures (up to one thousand atmospheres) and high temperatures (about 700°C or 1300°F). The reactors also resist attack by hydrogen gases which can corrode many metals, especially at high temperature and pressure. The catalyst in commercial ammonia synthesis is usually an iron oxide mixed with a small amount of additional "promoter" material. When the process begins, the hydrogen gas converts the catalyst to pure iron. Gradually, as the iron catalyst is poisoned by carbon and sulfur compounds, it becomes less effective and must be replaced. Nitrogen gas for the synthesis process comes from the atmosphere, while most of the hydrogen needed is extracted from natural gas sources. Once ammonia gas has been formed, it is liquefied by cooling it with water. Nitrogen and hydrogen that have not yet been converted to ammonia are recycled through the system. In addition to Haber-Bosch synthesis, other industrial sources of ammonia also exist; it is created as a by-product, for example, during the production of coal and coke-oven gas.
In the early 1990's the M.W. Kellogg Co. developed a new reduced energy process for manufacturing ammonia. This technology was successfully implemented by Pacific Ammonia Inc at its Kitimat, British Columbia plant in 1994. This new technique can increase ammonia production by 40% by using two innovative processes. The first innovation, known as the Kellogg Advanced Ammonia Process, involves a ruthenium-based catalyst instead of a traditional iron catalyst. The second innovation, the Kellogg Reforming Exchanger System, uses a new open-tube design in the reforming exchanger.
2. A Brief of History of Ammonia Synthesis
In ancient times, ammonia was derived from organic material such as manure and urine. During the Middle Ages, alchemists produced a weak solution of ammonia in water by distilling the horns and hoofs of oxen. They called this ammonia solution "spirits of hartshorn." Later, more substantial amounts of ammonia were recovered from the vapors of natural steam vents in Italy, and large quantities of ammonia were produced from Chile saltpeter (sodium nitrate, or NaNO3), which is mined in South American deserts. Around the turn of the twentieth century, Sir William Crookes predicted that the world would soon run short of Chile saltpeter. Scientists feared that without nitrogen-based fertilizers to increase crop yields, the growing world population would starve. Thus began the search for an alternative source of ammonia. Although a practically inexhaustible source of nitrogen exists in the atmosphere, which consists of about 80 percent nitrogen, no one knew how to convert the element into ammonia on a large scale. In Germany, Fritz Haber began investigating the possibility of combining nitrogen from the atmosphere with hydrogen to form ammonia. In principle the chemistry of ammonia synthesis was simple but the execution was difficult because high temperatures and very high pressures were needed to produce enough quantities of ammonia to make the process economical. Habersucceeded in developing an ammonia synthesis process that worked in the laboratory in 1909. Initially, Haber used osmium or uranium as a catalyst to speed up
