KBR offers single-train ammonia plants ranging in capacity from 500
to over 4,000 mtpd. KBR recently started up a 2200 mtpd ammonia plant in
Australia. This plant is among the world's largest single-train ammonia
manufacturing plants. KBR's ammonia technology positions the plant
owner as a true low-cost producer in a highly competitive business.
As a leading ammonia licensor, KBR has licensed more than 200
ammonia plants since 1943. In the 1960s, KBR pioneered the large-scale,
single-train ammonia plant and has since introduced numerous
commercially-successful ammonia process technologies. As a result,
KBR-licensed ammonia plants account for more than 50 percent of the
world's capacity installed since 1965.
KBR offers multiple energy-efficient, low operating and capital
cost ammonia process technologies to ammonia manufacturers. The
determination of which technology is the best choice for a given project
is a made by the client in consultation with KBR and is dependent on a
variety of factors including: feedstock composition and pressure, plant
location, availability and costs of required utilities, current and
projected ammonia prices, capital cost vs. operating cost
considerations, and plant operating and maintenance personnel
familiarity with one or more KBR process technologies at operating
ammonia plants in same location.
