  • Publication number: 20250145481
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the teachings herein include a process for ammonia synthesis. An example includes: passing a feed gas via an inlet opening over a catalyst within a reactor, wherein the feed gas comprises nitrogen and hydrogen under pressure; passing ammonia produced in the reactor as a wet gas to a condensation unit comprising three heat exchangers configured monolithically with one another, wherein the ammonia condenses; and discharging the subcooled liquid pressurized condensate through a collection channel and discharging the dry gas via an outlet opening. The first heat exchanger causes the wet gas to exchange heat with a dry gas from which ammonia has already condensed, producing a cooled wet gas. The second heat exchanger separates the wet gas into gaseous reactants and a liquid pressurized condensate. The third heat exchanger subcools the liquid pressurized condensate.

  • Patent number: 12292583
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to an apparatus, method, and computer program for a volumetric display apparatus in a vehicle. The apparatus includes a display in the distal end and an enclosure for the rod with a mirrored interior and an aperture adapted to receive the rod's distal end. The rod and the enclosure are centered on a longitudinal axis passing through the interior. The rod is adjustable along the longitudinal axis of the enclosure from a closed position immediately adjacent to the aperture to an open position that extends from the closed position to the proximal end of the enclosure. A holographic image is formed at the aperture of the enclosure when a plurality of light vectors emitted from the image on the display are reflected off the mirrored surface of the interior while the rod is in the open position.
