A recent article in Chemical Engineering Magazine explores processes for creating ammonia, or NH3, indicating that the current Haber-Bosch process used to produce NH3 is highly energy-intensive, requiring extreme temperatures and pressures. Researchers at Colorado School of Mines are looking for a new way of producing ammonia, looking to use a membrane reactor for synthesis, a highly innovative concept. From the story: The concept uses a hydrogen-permeable metallic membrane to transport atomic hydrogen to the other side of the membrane where the NH3 synthesis reaction occurs, explains ....
