Recently, chemical looping ammonia synthesis (CLAS) has emerged as a viable alternative method for ammonia production. Specifically, aluminium-oxide (Al (2) O (3) )-based chemical looping has shown ...

Caltech University's Professor Karthish Manthiram won the Infosys Prize 2025 in Physical Sciences for his breakthroughs in ...

- Ammonia has gained attention as a next-generation energy carrier. By combining an optical antenna structure that can concentrate light into a nano-space, and a co-catalyst that selectively adsorbs ...

Scientists found a way to synthesize a special type of perovskite that promotes the production of ammonia, which has key applications in fertilizer production and hydrogen energy. This new synthesis ...

Catalyst Activation: Identified as the critical step where the active catalyst is formed. Promoter Role: Promoters form cementitious phases that play a pivotal role in enhancing catalyst performance.

A reactor that uses steel balls to smash together nitrogen, hydrogen, and an iron catalyst can produce a continuous stream of ammonia, even at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. The discovery ...

The last time you scrubbed a streaky window or polished a porcelain appliance, you probably used a chemical called ammonia.

Nanocatalysts, with their small size and high surface area-to-volume ratio, significantly enhance catalytic activity in industrial processes such as ammonia production. 1 By integrating nanocatalysts, ...
