标题:Systems and methods for generating synthesis gas for ammonia production
发明人:JENSEN SOREN HOJGAARD
权利人:DYNELECTRO APS
摘要:This invention relates to system for the production of ammonia synthesis gas, comprising: one or more electrically driven air separation unit(s) configured to separate nitrogen from air; and one or more solid oxide electrolysis cell(s) configured to produce hydrogen by solid oxide electrolysis of steam in thermoneutral or endothermal mode. By configuring the electrically driven air separation unit(s) and the solid oxide electrolysis cell(s) so that heat emanating from the one or more electrically driven air separation unit(s) is transferred to the one or more solid oxide electrolysis cell(s), nitrogen production may be integrated while enabling high current density, the use of large SOEC stacks and improved reactant conversion. In addition, ammonia production plants comprising the above system as well as related methods are described.
