INTRODUCTION OF AMMONIA
Ammonia is one of the largest volume inorganic chemicals. Ammonia could be produced by the direct reaction of hydrogen and nitrogen over a catalytic surface. About 90% of ammonia production are used as fertilizer.

IMPORTANCES AND USES OF AMMONIA

The fertilizer industry constitutes the largest market for ammonia. Urea is manufactured by the reaction of ammonia and carbon dioxide . Ammonia is consumed in the manufacturer ammonium phosphate by reaction with phosphoric acid Ammonia consumed in the direct manufacture of ammonium sulphate by reaction with sulphuric acid

Physical properties of ammonia

FORMULA MOLECULAR WEIGHT COLOR CRYSTALLINE FORM REFRACTIVE INDEX MELTING POINT BOILING POINT : : : : : : : NH3 17.03 colorless gas 1.325 liquid -77.6 C -33.4 C

AMMONIA PLANT: SHORT DESCRIPTION

Ammonia is produced by the following reaction: N2 + 3H2 = 2NH3 + HEAT(-92kj/mol) KSFL uses natural gas as feed stock and natural gas/naphtha were used as fuel in furnace. Source of nitrogen is atmospheric air which has 79% nitrogen. Hydrogen is produced from natural gas. Natural gas is supplied by GAIL via HBJ from Bombay high.

Process steps for manufacture of ammonia

DESULPHURIZATION: H2 + S = H2S ( Hydrogenation) Zno + H2S = ZnS + H2O (H2s is absorbed) PRIMARY REFORMER : CH4 + 2H2O = CO2 + 4H2 + heat

SECONDARY REFORMER WASTE HEAT RECOVERY SHIFT CONVERSION : CO + H2O = CO2 + H2 + heat (catalyst iron oxide)

 CARBON DIOXIDE REMOVAL: METHANATION: CO + 3H2 = CH4 + H2O + heat (catalyst Ni) CO2 + 4H2 = CH4 + 2H2O + heat
SYNTHESIS GAS COMPRESSION : REFRIGERATION SYSTEM : AMMONIA SYNTHESIS : 3H2 + N2 = 2NH3 + heat (catalyst Ni)
