Issue 9/2020 - Breakthrough innovation in ammonia synthesis technology in China

From April 20 to 23, Jiangsu Heyou Chemical Co.
, Ltd.
DN1800 industrial iron ruthenium relay catalytic ammonia synthesis system passed the 72-hour on-site assessment and calibration organized by the China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Federation
.

The calibration results show that the operating indicators of the device are better than the company's original equipment level, the reaction pressure is reduced by 80%, the comprehensive calculation of ammonia cost is reduced by more than 230 yuan, and the energy-saving effect, economic benefits and safety level are significantly improved
.

This is the first time in China to use the ruthenium-based ammonia synthesis catalyst with completely independent intellectual property rights, the "two iron and two ruthenium" catalyst filling technology and the ammonia synthesis reactor to build an ammonia synthesis plant
.
Experts said that the outstanding advantage of the system is the efficient catalysis of iron and ruthenium relay catalysis, and high ammonia net value
can still be obtained under the reaction conditions of low temperature and low pressure and high inert gas content.
