Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022175548A1] The invention regards a method for electrochemical ammonia synthesis, comprising the steps of: - providing an electrolysis cell having a cathode, - contacting the cathode with a source of cations, preferably lithium cations, a source of nitrogen, a source of oxygen, and a source of protons, wherein the oxygen source provides a predefined oxygen concentration, and - subjecting the cell to a potential and current load, whereby ammonia is synthesized.
