Comparative Analysis of the Electrified Haber Bosch and the Electrochemical Ammonia Synthesis Approaches for Green Ammonia Production

Currently, green ammonia is produced using a process that combines green hydrogen and nitrogen. There’s a newer method called Direct Ammonia Synthesis (DAS) that can be better because it can produce green ammonia directly, without going through the extra steps of producing green hydrogen and then combining it with nitrogen. This could save a lot of money and energy. We’re studying both methods and will conduct a comparative analysis. The partner company, FuelPositive, has a system using the current method, and we want to compare it with the new DAS approach. We’ll look at how much ammonia each method makes using the same amount of power, water, and nitrogen. Additionally, we’ll use a neural network model to compare the DAS method with FuelPositive’s approach.
