In the production of ammonia
the following side reaction occurs:
Ayen and Peters [Ind. Eng. Chen. Process Des. Dev., I, 204 (1962)] studied the catalytic reaction of nitric oxide with Girdler G-50 catalyst in a differential reactor at atmospheric pressure. Table P 10-16B shows the reaction rate of the side reaction as a function of and PNO at a temperature of 375°C.
