Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an ammonia plant, wherein the ammonia plant comprises a converter, a first heat exchanger, and a removal apparatus. The converter and the first heat exchanger are connected to one another via a product gas connection in such a way that the ammonia synthesis product gas is guided out of the converter via the first heat exchanger to the removal apparatus. The removal apparatus and the converter are connected to one another via a reactant gas connection in such a way that the circulation gas is guided from the removal apparatus to the converter. The ammonia plant comprises a hydrogen feed that is connected to the converter via a second heat exchanger. The ammonia plant comprises a first electric heater and a steam turbine. The first electric heater is connected to the converter or to the steam turbine.
