Post-plasma catalysis: charge effect on product selectivity in conversion of methane and nitrogen plasma to ethylene and ammonia

Sarojini Tiwari et al.

Summary: The main challenge in simultaneous conversion of methane and nitrogen to ethylene and ammonia under plasma conditions is the low selectivity. To address this challenge, an innovative strategy - post-plasma catalysis outside a microwave-enhanced plasma zone (MWP) was explored. Experimentally, the post-plasma species were identified and the selectivity was improved through the use of a thermally heated Ag-Pd/CeO2 catalyst.

Application of an equation-oriented framework to formulate and estimate parameters of chemical looping reaction models

Chinedu O. Okoli et al.

Summary: Accurate reaction models are crucial for the design and optimization of chemical looping combustion reactors. This study demonstrates the application of a novel equation-oriented framework to develop reduction reaction kinetic models for an iron-based oxygen carrier in CLC. By formulating an optimization problem, the kinetic parameters are estimated to provide the best fit to experimental data. The model predicts the state of the oxygen carrier with low mean square error values across the full range of validation data.

Evidence of ammonia synthesis by bulk diffusion in cobalt molybdenum particles in a CLAS process

Siobhan Brown et al.

Summary: This study reports the synthesis of ammonia on nitridation in CoMo for the first time during a chemical looping ammonia synthesis experiment. The results provide evidence for the presence of a dynamic surface, a shrinking core, and counter diffusion. The study also establishes the existence of an unreacted oxide core containing molybdenum bronzes, HxMoO3, which complicates the established Mars-van Krevlen mechanism.

Patrick M. Barboun et al.

Summary: This article investigates the adsorption of nitrogen on metal catalysts activated by nonthermal plasma. The experimental results confirm the conversion of plasma-activated nitrogen into ammonia through surface catalyzed pathways. The study also shows the relationship between the hydrogenation ability of the catalyst and the desorption temperature of NH3.

Green ammonia from air, water, and renewable electricity: Energy costs using natural gas reforming, solid oxide electrolysis, liquid water electrolysis, chemical looping, or a Haber-Bosch loop

Peter H. Pfromm et al.

Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare the energy cost of different design alternatives for ammonia production using air, water, and renewable electricity. The results show that the energy costs of the alternatives investigated here are not substantially different. Direct solid oxide electrolysis (SOE) combined with a Haber-Bosch (H-B) synthesis loop, or SOE to provide H2 and N2 separately combined with atmospheric pressure chemical looping for ammonia synthesis (CLAS) may be attractive for small scale production or remote locations.

Molybdenum-based nitrogen carrier for ammonia production via a chemical looping route

Song Yang et al.

Summary: Chemical looping ammonia synthesis (CLAS) using Mo2N as nitrogen carrier was demonstrated to be an effective and sustainable method for ammonia generation. The two-step CLAS showed high N release/fixation efficiency and achieved a higher NH3 production rate compared to the thermo-catalytic ammonia synthesis route catalyzed by Mo2N. The study also confirmed the stability and feasibility of using Mo2N as an NC during the CLAS process.

High thermal stability Si-Al based N-carrier for efficient and stable chemical looping ammonia generation

Chuhao Xiong et al.

Summary: Chemical looping ammonia generation (CLAG) is a promising technology for high yield and low CO2 emission in ammonia production. However, the stability of existing N-carriers during cyclic N-sorption/desorption is problematic. This research addresses this challenge through elemental doping and support deposition, resulting in improved cyclic performance.
