Title (German)

Power-to-X; Ammoniaksynthese

Brief description

This guideline defines system boundaries as well as system and cost parameters that are relevant for the description of ammonia production. The two process paths considered are the classic Haber-Bosch synthesis using hydrogen from the process according to VDI 4635 sheet "Hydrogen production" and, alternatively, the processes under development for the direct electrochemical production of ammonia from water and nitrogen. The basics and special features of the respective processes are explained.
