Publication number: 20250115547Abstract: Disclosed is a method for the integrated production of two different urea products. One is an aqueous urea solution suitable for use in NOx abatement (generally indicated as Diesel Exhaust Fluid DEF). The other is a solution used as a fertilizer, viz. Urea Ammonium Nitrate (UAN). The production of DEF and UAN are integrated as follows: ammonia recovered from the production of urea is used as a feed to the production of ammonium nitrate. At least part of an aqueous urea stream from urea production, is mixed with ammonium nitrate so as to obtain UAN.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 18, 2024Publication date: April 10, 2025Applicant: STAMICARBON B.V.Inventors: Joey DOBREE, Johannes Henricus MENNEN

Publication number: 20250002360Abstract: The disclosure pertains to a plant for the production of ammonia. The ammonia is produced from hydrogen obtained by electrolysis of water. The electrolysis is powered by a renewable source of energy, complemented with power obtained from the plant during periods of low or no availability of the renewable energy. To this end, the plant is configured such that it can be operated in a charge configuration (obtaining and storing power) and a discharge configuration (employing said power).Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2023Publication date: January 2, 2025Applicant: STAMICARBON B.V.Inventors: Joey DOBREE, Mahal PATEL, Paolo MAZZARA
