Ammonia Cracker
Units
Advanced ammonia cracking systems for efficient hydrogen production. Thermal decomposition technology producing 75% H₂ and 25% N₂ mixture for industrial and metallurgical applications.
Ammonia Cracking Systems
Our ammonia cracker units use thermal decomposition to produce hydrogen by cracking ammonia at high temperatures. These systems are ideal for heat treatment, metallurgical industries, and various industrial applications.
How It Works
The ammonia cracking process uses thermal decomposition to efficiently produce hydrogen
Cracking Process Steps
Ammonia Feed
Ammonia is fed from cylinders or storage tanks to the cracking furnace at controlled rates.
High Temperature Heating
In the cracking furnace, ammonia is heated to temperatures between 800-900°C for optimal decomposition.
Thermal Decomposition
At these temperatures, ammonia (NH₃) thermally decomposes into nitrogen (N₂) and hydrogen (H₂).
Gas Mixture Output
The resulting gas mixture contains approximately 75% hydrogen and 25% nitrogen, ready for use.
Optional Purification
PSA purification systems can be added to obtain higher purity hydrogen if required for specific applications.
Applications
Ammonia crackers are ideal for various industrial applications requiring hydrogen-nitrogen mixtures
Heat Treatment
Annealing, sintering, and brazing processes requiring protective atmospheres for metal processing.
Metallurgical Industries
Steel production, powder metallurgy, and metal heat treatment applications.

PSA Hydrogen Purification Units
High-purity hydrogen generation systems using Pressure Swing Adsorption technology for demanding applications.
Product Overview
PSA Hydrogen Plants use Pressure Swing Adsorption technology to purify hydrogen from various feed gases. The process involves selective adsorption of impurities on molecular sieves, allowing pure hydrogen to pass through.
Our PSA Hydrogen Plants can achieve hydrogen purities up to 99.9%, making them suitable for a wide range of applications requiring high-purity hydrogen. The systems are fully automatic and designed for continuous operation.
Applications
- Hydrogenation processes
- Fuel cell applications
- Metallurgical processes
- Electronics manufacturing
- Chemical processing
- Pharmaceutical industry
Process Description
The PSA hydrogen purification process involves the following steps:
- Feed gas (reformate) containing hydrogen and impurities enters the PSA system.
- The gas passes through adsorber vessels containing molecular sieve adsorbents.
- Impurities such as CO, CO₂, CH₄, N₂, and water vapor are selectively adsorbed.
- Pure hydrogen passes through and is collected as product gas.
- The adsorber vessels are regenerated by depressurization and purging, creating a continuous cycle.
Standard Features
