By operation, at low pressures, the low yield (e.g. 1%), is compensated by simplicity of operation and apparatus. The synthesis gas is preferably recycled after NH3-recovery. The recovery may be by absorption in a liquid, e.g. water, H2SO4, HNO3, or by adsorptionon active carbon or on a molecular sieve; or by refrigeration. The NH3 may be recovered from water by pressure distillation.
