Synthetic ammonia production process (second edition) expounds synthetic ammonia production process from different raw materials, different processes, different equipment, different levels and different angles. Especially, combined with the development of China's coal chemical industry and the requirements of employers for graduates' theoretical and practical skills, various new technologies and processes of coal-to-gas production are emphatically introduced.

This book is divided into four parts, including the preparation, purification, compression and synthesis of feed gas, an overview of synthetic ammonia production and basic process calculation. In the theoretical part of each chapter, the basic principle, the selection of process conditions, the principle of process configuration, the main equipment structure and the key points of operation control are introduced respectively. In order to highlight the synchronous teaching of theory and practice, synchronous teaching topics are added at the end of each article, which is convenient for organizing students to carry out task-oriented teaching activities, and combining with outward bound training and thinking, theory and practice are further integrated. When compiling synchronous teaching content, we should pay attention to the step-by-step operation from the post operation of equipment unit, the operation of workshop section to the system operation of the whole plant.

Synthetic ammonia has both gas-solid phase and gas-liquid phase non-catalytic reaction and gas-solid phase and gas-liquid phase catalytic reaction. Its production process includes typical chemical unit operations, such as liquid transportation, heat and mass transfer, separation and freezing. Therefore, it can be used as a teaching material for high and intermediate technical schools of chemical engineering and related majors, and can also be used as a teaching material for on-the-job staff training and self-study of professional and technical personnel.
