The most successful class of active ingredient for both oxidation and reduction is that of the noble metals silver, gold, ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium, and platinum. Platinum and palladium readily oxidize carbon monoxide, all the hydrocarbons except methane, and the partially oxygenated organic compounds such as aldehydes and alcohols. Under reducing conditions, platinum can convert NO to N2 and to NH3. Platinum and palladium are used in small quantities as promoters for less active base metal oxide catalysts. Platinum is also a candidate for simultaneous oxidation and reduction when the oxidant/re-ductant ratio is within 1% of stoichiometry. The other four elements of the platinum family are in short supply. Ruthenium produces the least NH3 concentration in NO reduction in comparison with other catalysts, but it forms volatile toxic oxides.

Fig. 3 A shows the effluent NH3 concentration observed for Ru/MgO as a function of reaction temperature for three different Pn, / Phj / Paf ratios at 20 bar total pressure. It is obvious that the reaction orders for N2 and H2 have opposite signs. Fig. 3B illustrates that the reaction orders for N2 and H2 partly compensate each other in the kineticaliy controlled temperature regime. Hence an increase in total pressure with a constant Pnj / Phj 1/3 ratio does not lead to a significant increase in conversion at lower temperatures. For the plication of alkali-promoted Ru catalysts under industrial synthesis conditions, it is necessary to find a compromise between kinetics and thermodynamics by increasing the Pn, / Phj ratio. The optimum observed for Cs-Ru/MgO prepared from CS2CO3 at 50 bar is at about Pnj / Phj 40 / 60 [15]. The high NH3 concentration of about 8 % obtained with 0.138 g catalyst using a total flow of 100 Nml/min clearly shows that Ru catalysts have indeed the potential to replace Fe-based catalysts in industrial synthesis [15].

In an ammonia-based solution, the solution pH can vary between 7 (for an extremely diluted NH3 solution) and 11.5 (for an NH3 concentration of 1.2M).36 The equilibrium reactions suggest that, in an ammonia solution, a Zn2+ ion in the solution will stay in the form of Zn(OH)2 along with Zn (NH3)2, whereas a Cd2+ ion in an ammonia solution is predominantly Cd(NH3)4+. 

The ammonium/methylammonium transport (Amt) proteins of enteric bacteria are required for fast growth at very low concentrations of the uncharged NH3. Homologues exist in all three domains of life. They are essential at low ammonium (NHj + NH3) concentrations under acidic conditions. The Amt protein of S. typhimurium (AmtB) participates in acquisition of NHj /NH3, but cannot concentrate either NH3 or NHJ. In general, Amt proteins appear to be bidirectional channels for NH3. They are examples of protein facilitators for a gas [93], The majority of Amt proteins contain 11 transmembrane helices with the C-terminus facing the cytoplasm [94],... 

Methods used in studies of NH3 loss at AGRI, Hurley, involve the micrometeorological mass balance method for studies in grazed swards and a system of wind tunnels for small field plots to which specific treatments have been applied (e.g., slurry or urine). In the mass balance method, NH3 loss is calculated from measurements of (i) wind speed to a height of 3 m (ii) wind direction and (iii) the NH3 concentration profile in air windward and leeward of a treated area. The method has been successfully applied in studies in which the distance between the windward and leeward sampling...

The same model was applied to the simulation of typical transients occurring during the operation of industrial SCR monolith reactors in large power plants. In all cases it was found that the change in NO outlet concentration is considerably delayed with respect to the variation of the inlet NH3 concentration. This is unfavorable for a feedback control system using the ammonia feed as the control variable and makes... 

The MISiC-FET sensor operated at 300°C has demonstrated very promising results in this application [52, 76]. In Figure 2.20, the sensor response to NH3 obtained from two MISiC-FET sensors with porous Pt gates is compared with the NH3 concentration as measured by an optical instrument [52]. It is seen that the MISiC-FET sensors follow the optical signal very closely. It can also be noted that...
