For NOx control, Yara recommends the use of ammonia where possible.

Why use anhydrous ammonia?

Anhydrous ammonia has advantages over ammonia solution and urea where larger amounts of NOx reduction are required. With proper storage, handling and knowledge of ammonia properties, this reagent can be used without risk to convert NOx into nitrogen and water in your SCR system. The advantages of anhydrous ammonia, amongst others are:

• Anhydrous ammonia contains 100% of the reagent, thus provides high efficiency and low cost of transportation
• Less formation of nitrogen oxide and carbon moNOxide
• Greater efficiency than urea in SNCR systems at high temperatures
• Reduced likelihood of contamination and corrosion downstream of the injection equipment

Safe and reliable deliveries
