Ammonia
About the product
Our ammonia is produced using used plastics as part of the raw materials.
The quality is equivalent to conventional products, and the manufacturing process utilizing chemical recycling (gasification) reduces environmental impact during production.
In addition to liquefied ammonia, aqueous ammonia is also available.

Applications
| Denitration agent | Nitrogen oxides (NOx) are generated by the combustion of fossil fuels, etc. When ammonia is injected as a reducing agent into this flue gas, NOx is decomposed into nitrogen (N2) and water vapor (H2O), rendering it harmless. |
|---|---|
| Metal nitriding treatment | When metals are heated in ammonia gas at a low temperature of around 500 °C, an extremely hard nitrided layer is formed on their surface. This treatment can provide excellent corrosion resistance and wear resistance. |
| Various industrial raw materials | In addition to being used as a raw material for chemical fertilizers and synthetic fibers (Acrylonitrile, Caprolactam), it is also widely used as a raw material for various chemical industries and pharmaceuticals. |
Benefits
- Achieves high environmental performance through the use of used plastics and CO2 reuse
- Contributes to achieving customers' GHG emission reduction targets 1)
1) In Scope 3 of GHG (emissions from other companies related to the company's business activities, excluding Scope 2), purchased products and services are also subject to emission activities.
Characteristics
Properties
| Liquefied ammonia | High-pressure gas, deleterious substance, flammable, corrosive, strongly alkaline, soluble in water |
|---|---|
| Aqueous ammonia | Corrosive, strongly alkaline, releases ammonia gas at high temperatures |
FAQs
Q
How is your ammonia produced?
A
We produce ammonia by synthesizing hydrogen and nitrogen.
At Resonac, we source the necessary hydrogen through two distinct methods: our proprietary chemical recycling of used plastics, and conventional production from city gas. Our innovative process for extracting hydrogen from used plastics is called KPR (Kawasaki Plastic Recycle).
