Green Ammonia Reactor: Haber-Bosch on Renewable Hydrogen

Green ammonia swaps the natural-gas-derived hydrogen of conventional Haber-Bosch plants for hydrogen split from water by wind- or solar-powered electrolyzers, then runs the same 1913 catalytic reaction: N2 + 3H2 ⇌ 2NH3. This simulator solves the real equilibrium condition for that reaction — using the Gillespie-Beattie correlation for Kp(T) and an ideal-gas mole-balance at your chosen total pressure — so moving the temperature and pressure sliders visibly shifts the gas mixture inside a 3D reactor vessel between reactants and product exactly as Le Chatelier's principle predicts. A renewable-power slider throttles the electrolyzer's hydrogen feed, showing why intermittent wind and solar make it hard to keep a Haber-Bosch reactor running at its thermodynamic equilibrium, while live readouts track conversion, Kp, hydrogen feed rate and estimated CO2 avoided versus fossil ammonia.
