The national policy of electrocatalyzing nitric oxide to synthesize ammonia has the significance of pollution reduction and carbon reduction, including environmental protection, energy conservation and emission reduction, and promotion of the use of renewable energy.
1. Environmental protection: Nitric oxide is a major air pollutant and greenhouse gas, related to environmental problems such as acid rain and photochemical smog. By using electrocatalytic ammonia synthesis technology to convert nitric oxide into ammonia, it can effectively reduce nitric oxide emissions, protect the environment and improve air quality.
2. Energy saving and emission reduction: The traditional ammonia synthesis process uses the Haber-Bosch process or the Fischer-Topsch process, which consumes high energy and produces large carbon emissions. The electrocatalytic ammonia synthesis technology has the characteristics of high energy efficiency. By directly driving the reaction with electric energy, it can save energy consumption and reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
3. Promote the utilization of renewable energy: Electrocatalytic ammonia synthesis technology can use the electric energy generated by renewable energy (such as wind energy, solar energy) to synthesize ammonia, and directly convert renewable energy into ammonia fuel or fertilizer raw materials , promote the utilization and development of renewable energy.
