A Cracked Ammonia Hydrogen Enrichment Unit is an industrial system designed to produce high-purity hydrogen by enriching the hydrogen content in ammonia. The unit works by cracking ammonia (NH₃) into its constituent components — hydrogen (H₂) and nitrogen (N₂) — and then enriching the hydrogen output for use in various applications, particularly in hydrogen fuel cells, chemical processes, and hydrogenation reaction by PSA PROCESS

Automatic Ammonia Cracking Units (ACUs) are specialized systems designed to produce hydrogen by cracking ammonia (NH₃). The process involves the decomposition of ammonia into hydrogen and nitrogen gases, typically through the application of heat in the presence of a catalyst. The hydrogen produced can then be used in a variety of industrial applications, such as fuel cells, chemical production, or refining processes.

Ammonia Cracking Units are designed to produce hydrogen by cracking ammonia at high temperatures. The process involves the thermal decomposition of ammonia into hydrogen and nitrogen.

GASTEK  Ammonia Cracking Units are engineered to provide a reliable and efficient source of hydrogen for various industrial applications. The units are fully automatic and require minimal operator intervention.

Applications

• Heat treatment processes
• Metallurgical industries
• Chemical processing
• Electronics manufacturing
• Glass industryProcess Description

  The ammonia cracking process involves the following steps:

  1. Ammonia is fed from cylinders or a storage tank to the cracking furnace.
  2. In the cracking furnace, ammonia is heated to temperatures between 800-900°C.
  3. At these temperatures, ammonia (NH₃) decomposes into nitrogen (N₂) and hydrogen (H₂).
  4. The resulting gas mixture contains approximately 75% hydrogen and 25% nitrogen.
  5. Optional purification systems can be added to obtain higher purity hydrogen if required.
