    Technology pathways to clean ammonia

    Ammonia is poised to grow beyond fertilizers into energy transition roles, with lowcarbon pathways via blue ammonia and green ammonia, supported by existing logistics and market structures. To support this transition, Stamicarbon is expanding its NX STAMI™ ammonia technologies – with a mediumpressure design for large, CCUSintegrated plants and a highpressure design for small/ medium renewable projects – demonstrating efficiency, reliability, and cost advantages.

    Coal based fertilizer and methanol plant proposal

    Suiso, a South African company specialising in blue ammonia production, is set to invest $1.7 billion in a coal-to-fertiliser facility in Kriel, Mpumalanga in the east of South Africa. The proposal is for a 1.5 million t/a ‘blue’ ammonia-urea plant which will replace South Africa’s annual imports of 1.2 million t/a of urea, as well as producing 235,000 t/a of blue methanol for fuels, using advanced decarbonisation and carbon capture technologies. Suiso is partnering with Sinopec Ningbo Engineering, Stamicarbon, and ETG – the latter will distribute Suiso’s fertilisers across Africa, supporting local agriculture and long-term food security.
