Abstract: Oil sand or other naturally occurring oil-containing mixtures are used to produce SiC and/or Si3N4. In a subsequent step, the Si3N4 is employed to produce ammonia (NH3).

Abstract: The crude oil reserves have a calculable time limit. Before, for example, the automobile industry, aviation, the weapons industry, and space travel change their combustion engines over to silanes, which are known to combust with the air nitrogen in a hot chamber and provide atomic hydrogen, a possibility must be found to reduce the high oil prices. The very large reserves of oilbearing sands and jails provide the requirement for this purpose. The hydrocarbons of the minerals are decomposed into hydrogen and hydrocarbon residues to provide primary energy.

Abstract: The crude oil reserves have a calculable time limit. Starting materials containing silicon dioxide are preferably used as raw materials.
