Which of the following gasifiers can be attached to coal based fertiliser plants?
Lurgi (high pressure) gasifier
Kopper-Totzek gasifier
Gasifier working at 20 atm
Gasifier working at 40 atm
✅ The correct answer is option B.
In ammonia synthesis (N₂ + 3H₂ = 2NH₃), there is a decrease in total volume, hence to get high equilibrium conversion, the reaction should be carried out at
Low pressure
High pressure
Very high temperature
Atmospheric pressure; as the pressure has no effect on conversion
