This project aims to develop nanoscale heating technique using AC magnetic field for efficient synthesis of ammonia, widely used for fertiliser and having potential for hydrogen storage. This project is to introduce nanoscale heating concept by heating catalyst only but not solution in electrochemical catalysis to achieve high catalytic activity. Expected outcome is the creation of low cost catalysts having high selectivity and formation rate for ammonia production. This unique technology has the potential to replace current ammonia production based on Haber-Bosch process, which consumes 2% of world energy and contributes 3% of overall CO2 emission. The project provides opportunities for new industries that will benefit Australian economy.

该项目旨在开发利用交流磁场高效合成氨的纳米级加热技术，广泛用于化肥，并具有储氢潜力。本计画系将奈米加热概念引入电化学催化中，借由仅加热触媒而非溶液，以达到高触媒活性。预期的结果是产生用于氨生产的具有高选择性和形成速率的低成本催化剂。这种独特的技术有可能取代目前基于哈伯-博世工艺的氨生产，哈伯-博世工艺消耗了世界2%的能源，占二氧化碳总排放量的3%。该项目为新产业提供了机会，将有利于澳大利亚经济。
