Sustainable NOx production from air in pulsed plasma: elucidating the chemistry behind the low energy consumption

Elise Vervloessem et al.

Summary: N-based fertilisers are crucial for supporting the growing world population, but current industrial N-2 fixation depends heavily on fossil fuels, driving the need for fossil-free pathways. The study presents a pulsed plasma jet for direct NOx production from air, achieving a record-low energy consumption through non-thermal Zeldovich mechanism. The insights gained from this study are important for developing energy-efficient plasma sources for NOx production in the future.

Observation and rationalization of nitrogen oxidation enabled only by coupled plasma and catalyst

Hanyu Ma et al.

Summary: This study investigates the synergy between heterogeneous catalysts and non-thermal plasma. Through experimental evidence and reactor model construction, it is revealed that neither catalyst nor plasma alone is productive, but their combination can generate nitrogen oxides. The study provides clear evidence for the synergy between heterogeneous catalysts and non-thermal plasma, and highlights the importance of their combined use.

N2 Fixation by Plasma-Activated Processes

Lea R. Winter et al.

Summary: This paper compares the energy requirements, CO2 emissions, and commodity prices of alternative plasma-activated ammonia synthesis with the conventional Haber-Bosch process. Economic positive externalities are evaluated for renewable energy-powered modular ammonia production, with a 6-fold improvement in plasma process efficiency projected to make it competitive. Technological prospects for achieving the thresholds are discussed, including advancements in plasma-catalyst synergy and direct reactions of N-2 with plasma-activated water.

Evidence of near-the-limit energy cost NO formation in atmospheric spark discharge

Nikolay Britun et al.

Summary: A very low energy cost for NO radical formation in atmospheric spark discharge has been reported, with the minimum EC achieved in the spark regime before the transition and the maximum NO yield in the glow regime. The low EC is associated with discharge non-equilibrium caused by short spark duration.

Nitrogen reduction to ammonia at high efficiency and rates based on a phosphonium proton shuttle

Bryan H. R. Suryanto et al.

Summary: Ammonia (NH3) is a globally important commodity for fertilizer production, but its synthesis by the Haber-Bosch process causes substantial emissions of carbon dioxide. Alternative methods being explored include the promising electrochemical lithium-mediated nitrogen reduction reaction, which has required sacrificial sources of protons. In this study, a phosphonium salt is introduced as a proton shuttle to help resolve this limitation, resulting in high NH3 production rates and demonstrated continuous operation for more than 3 days.

From the Birkeland-Eyde process towards energy-efficient plasma-based NOX synthesis: a techno-economic analysis

Kevin H. R. Rouwenhorst et al.

Summary: Plasma-based NOX synthesis via the Birkeland-Eyde process was one of the early industrial nitrogen fixation methods, but it never dominated the field due to the invention of the Haber-Bosch process. However, recent interest in plasma technology for nitrogen fixation has resurged with the availability of low cost, renewable electricity. Energy consumption for NOX synthesis with plasma technology is currently competitive with the commercial process, but further optimization is needed to achieve full competitiveness through effective plasma-catalyst coupling.

NOx production in a rotating gliding arc plasma: potential avenue for sustainable nitrogen fixation

Fatme Jardali et al.

Summary: A novel rotating gliding arc plasma was proposed for direct NOx production to yield high nitrogen content organic fertilizers without pollution associated with ammonia emission. Higher NOx concentrations were achieved in steady mode with the lowest energy consumption, attributed to combined thermal and vibrationally-promoted Zeldovich mechanisms.

Sustainable gas conversion by gliding arc plasmas: a new modelling approach for reactor design improvement

Senne Van Alphen et al.

Summary: Research in plasma reactor designs is rapidly evolving due to the increasing interest in plasma technology for sustainable gas conversion applications. A new comprehensive modeling approach has been introduced for the design and development of gliding arc plasma reactors, demonstrating predictive capabilities through experimentally validated studies. The model highlights the importance of fluid dynamics, arc behavior, plasma chemistry, and the impact of vortex flow and recirculation zones on NOx formation in the reactor. Good agreement with experimental measurements confirms the effectiveness of the modeling approach.
