Scientists use biomethane for ammonia production as a sustainable alternative to natural gas, targeting net-zero emissions in agriculture.
However, its production contributes significantly to carbon emissions, prompting urgent calls for greener alternatives.
However, Istrate notes that this method remains expensive and not widely adopted, leaving most ammonia produced through conventional means. When biomethane is used, the carbon dioxide released during combustion was recently captured from the atmosphere during biomass growth through photosynthesis. In his comparative research, Istrate evaluates three ammonia production methods: conventional processes, electrolysis, and biomethane-based production.He also delves into a more pragmatic approach, investigating a scenario where natural gas is blended with biomethane.
