Advanced technology for green ammonia production at room temperature

Important results from the project

All set objectives were met. The project delivered a validated process with 100% Faraday efficiency (FE), lower energy consumption and a working lab prototype. The key process parameters were established and verified experimentally. Important additional results include the platform technology for REE and lithium recovery and the establishment of international networks, creating new business opportunities with new revenue streams and strengthening the strategic position.

Expected long term effects

The project is expected to improve distributed, fossil-free ammonia production and significantly reduce energy consumption compared to conventional methods. The spin-off technology also strengthens the EU´s strategic raw material supply through the recycling of critical metals and creates a diversified revenue base. The global networks and strong patent portfolio lay the foundation for Swedish exports, industrialization and long-term international leadership in green chemistry.

Approach and implementation

The project was implemented according to plan with a focus on technical validation, prototype development and IP assurance. The measurements proved relevant and the development followed the intended path. Mass and energy balance calculations were integrated. Component concentrations were measured via titration. Energy consumption was measured with a DC converter. The spinoff for REE recycling was developed. The collaboration worked very well both internally and with external partners.
