Primary Types of Ammonia Synthesis Catalysts
① Iron-Based Catalysts: Incorporating elements such as iron, aluminum, and potassium, commonly found in the Haber-Bosch process for ammonia synthesis.
② Molybdenum-Based Catalysts: Molybdenum serves as the primary active element, often forming composite catalysts with iron, aluminum, magnesium, and others.
③ Nickel-Based Catalysts: Nickel and its alloys exhibit notable catalytic activity in ammonia synthesis.
Synthetic ammonia catalysts encompass various types, including iron-based, molybdenum-based, nickel-based, among others. The active components and formulation differences in these catalysts directly influence their performance.
Key Factors Influencing Ammonia Synthesis Catalyst Performance
① Choice of Active Metal: The active metal in the catalyst, such as iron, molybdenum, nickel, directly determines the catalytic effects and reaction rates.
② Catalyst Formulation: The ratio of different components in the formulation directly impacts the catalyst's efficiency, with a rational formulation enhancing performance.
③ Nature of the Catalyst Carrier: The selection and properties of the carrier affect the dispersion of active metals, thereby influencing the catalyst's activity.
④ Reaction Temperature and Pressure: Crucial factors in determining catalyst activity and selectivity, appropriate temperature and pressure contribute to increased ammonia yield.
⑤ Redox Performance: Given the involvement of gas oxidation-reduction processes in the synthetic ammonia reaction, the catalyst's redox performance directly relates to the reaction's progress.
⑥ Ammonia Synthesis Catalyst Stability: The stability of the catalyst during prolonged operation determines its lifespan and maintenance frequency, impacting production continuity.
Impact on Industrial Ammonia Production
