ABSTRACT
Ammonia is the principal component in the production of nitrogen fertilizers. The world ammonia capacity for 1995-1996 is estimated at 123,640,000 tons of nitrogen per year [17] 0
Ammonia synthesis from elements was done for the first time on an industrial scale in Germany in 1913, based on the process developed by Fritz Haber and Carl Bosch. The nitrogen required for ammonia synthesis is taken from the air, whereas the sources of hydrogen vary, and over time this has led to the development of several processes for syngas production.
