The Potential of Ammonia-City Gas Combined Production in China

A Plan for Modernizing the Energy, Environment and Life Style in Small Local Cities of China

Abstract

China has more than one thousand small ammonia plants widely located over small cities. These plants are operated in good condition based on local tech-nical supports. Utilization of the exhaust gases from such ammonia plants is possible to develop a hydrogasification process to supply high calory city gas over small cities in inland China.
This ammonia/ciy gas combined production would be promising for establishing clean environment and modern life style in China. This report describes the possibility of the above concept from both technical and social view points.
