<p>World-scale ammonia-production plants based on the Haber-Bosch process supply the ammonia for most of today’s agricultural fertilizer industry. But building new capacity for ammonia production is economically difficult because of the high capital expenditures needed for plants large enough to take advantage of economies of scale. The startup company Ammobia Inc. has developed a process that changes the operating conditions for ammonia production, allowing ammonia to be produced in regional modular facilities at low cost.</p> <p>The post <a href="https://www.chemengonline.com/sorbent-based-ammonia-production-system-lowers-cost-and-allows-modularity/">Sorbent-based ammonia-production system lowers cost and allows modularity</a> appeared first on <a href="https://www.chemengonline.com">Chemical Engineering</a>.</p>
