: Household ammonia is a dilute solution used as an effective degreaser and glass cleaner.
: Due to its high heat absorption capacity, ammonia is widely used as a coolant in large-scale industrial refrigeration and cold storage systems. Emerging Role as a "Green" Fuel ammoniac
: Most modern ammonia is synthesized via the Haber-Bosch process , which combines atmospheric nitrogen with hydrogen under high pressure and temperature using an iron catalyst. Major Uses : Household ammonia is a dilute solution used
when burned. It is easier to liquefy and transport than pure hydrogen, making it a promising fuel for maritime shipping and long-term energy storage. "Green ammonia" is produced when the hydrogen used in synthesis comes from renewable-powered water electrolysis. Safety & Environmental Impact Major Uses when burned
: It is a weak base that dissolves easily in water to form an alkaline solution often called ammonium hydroxide .
: It is a precursor for plastics, synthetic fibers like nylon and rayon, explosives (TNT, nitroglycerin), and pharmaceuticals.
