  • Introduction – feed of process, Hyber process
  • Ammonia production and synthesis
  • Desulphurization – where sulphur compounds are hydrogenated by preheating and using cobalt molybdenum catalyst and then adsorbed on zinc oxide.
  • Primary reforming- Steam reforming; high Ni-Cr alloy tubes filled with reforming catalyst.
  • Secondary reforming
  • Shift conversion, Methanation  and Carbon dioxide removal

About 33 students of 4th year from Department of Chemical Engineering, UIET attended the webinar along with the faculty member- Dr. Vinay Kumar Sachan.
