Abstract

The rate-limiting step for ammonia (NH3) production via the Haber-Bosch process is known to be the dissociation of molecular nitrogen (N2), which requires quite harsh working conditions, even when ...

Highlights

  • Ammonia (NH3) is the essential precursor in the synthesis of many N-containing compounds,[1,2] several of them having a high impact in our daily life, from sterilizing and cleaning products, to fertilizers and medicines.[3]

  • Small iron Fe3 supported on the θ-Al2O3(010) surface have been proposed as feasible heterogeneous catalyst for ammonia synthesis.[13]

  • Energy barriers for N2 dissociation in the 0.4–1.9 eV interval have been predicted for the reaction on Ru nanoparticles, depending on whether terrace or step sites are considered as catalytic active sites
