Ammonia Production Costs - Q1 2022
Ammonia Operating Costs & Plants Capital Investment
Ammonia (a.k.a. NH3) is one of the most produced synthetic chemicals, manufactured in more than 80 countries. In fact, the synthesis of this world class commodity figures among the greatest achievements of industrial chemistry, after which important processes were developed, such as methanol and oxo synthesis, Fischer-Tropsch process and Reppe reactions.
Intratec offers professional, easy-to-understand reports examining Ammonia production costs. Each study describes an industrial plant, including main process units and site infrastructure, and presents an independent analysis of capital and operating costs. All reports are based on the most recent economic data available (Q1 2022).
Ammonia Production from Syngas
This report presents the economics of Ammonia production from synthesis gas (syngas). In this process, hydrogen, recovered from syngas feedstock, and nitrogen, recovered from air, react producing Ammonia. The economic analysis performed assumes a plant located in the United States.
Details: 800 kta United States-based plant | Q1 2022 | 106 pages From $799 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Ammonia E11A target a 800 kta (kilometric tons per annum) United States-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.
Ammonia Production from Natural Gas (Combined Reforming)
This report presents the economics of Ammonia production from natural gas in the United States using a process similar to KBR Purifier process. In the process examined, syngas is initially produced from natural gas via a combined reforming. The syngas is purified through several steps into nitrogen and hydrogen which are synthesized to ammonia.

The cost analyses presented in the report Ammonia E21A target a 800 kta (kilometric tons per annum) United States-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.
Ammonia Production from Natural Gas (Chemical Looping Process)
This study approaches the economics of Ammonia manufacturing from natural gas in the United States. This report assumes a novel plant configuration reported in the literature, in which three chemical looping reactors, respectively fed by natural gas, steam and air are used. The outlet from the looping reactors is passed through compression and water separation steps to generate pure streams of nitrogen, hydrogen and carbon dioxide. Nitrogen and hydrogen react to generate Ammonia.

The cost analyses presented in the report Ammonia E22A target a 800 kta (kilometric tons per annum) United States-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.
Ammonia Production from Coal
This report examines the costs related to Ammonia production from coal in China. In this process, coal undergoes pyrolysis, producing coke. It is then subjected to a gasification process. Coke reacts with steam and oxygen yielding mainly carbon monoxide (CO), hydrogen and carbon dioxide (CO2). CO and water are shifted to CO2 and hydrogen. Finally, nitrogen and hydrogen react to produce ammonia.
Details: 800 kta China-based plant | Q1 2022 | 107 pages From $1,199 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Ammonia E31C target a 800 kta (kilometric tons per annum) China-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.
Ammonia Production from Heavy Oil
This report examines the costs related to Ammonia production from heavy oil. The process under analysis integrates a heavy oil partial oxidation process for synthesis gas production with a unit that produces ammonia from hydrogen and nitrogen. The economic analysis provided assumes a plant located in the United States.
Details: 800 kta United States-based plant | Q1 2022 | 107 pages From $1,199 USD
The cost analyses presented in the report Ammonia E41A target a 800 kta (kilometric tons per annum) United States-based plant. For those interested in cost analyses considering other plant capacities and/or locations, Intratec offers a customized analysis as an optional feature.
