Researchers at RMIT, led by Dr. Karma Zuraiqi, have unveiled a groundbreaking method of ammonia production that could revolutionize the industry's environmental impact. Ammonia, crucial for fertilizers and hydrogen transportation, currently incurs high energy consumption and carbon emissions. The new approach, highlighted in a study published in Nature Catalysis, significantly reduces heat and pressure requirements compared to the conventional Haber-Bosch process, offering a more sustainable solution. The innovation relies on liquid metal catalysts, particularly copper and gallium, demonstrating a remarkable synergy for efficient ammonia production. These liquid metal 'nano planets' facilitate dynamic chemical reactions, emphasizing the effectiveness of catalysis. Professor Torben Daeneke, part of the research team, emphasized the cost-effectiveness and efficiency of the new technique. Moreover, the technology's versatility allows for both large-scale and decentralized production, providing a viable option for various industries. It not only promises greener ammonia production but also supports the hydrogen sector's transition away from fossil fuels. By integrating this green ammonia process with hydrogen technologies, emissions from the hydrogen industry could be significantly reduced, enabling safer global energy transportation. The next steps involve upscaling the technology for industrial applications and refining it for lower pressure operation. Collaborations are sought to drive the implementation of this innovative approach on a larger scale. Supported by the Australian Research Council and cutting-edge facilities, this research signifies a crucial step towards sustainable ammonia production and a greener energy future.
