Event Overview
Ammonia (NH3) has significant potential as a clean energy source. Made of hydrogen and nitrogen, NH3 itself can be burned as a carbon-free fuel. It also provides a convenient way to transport and store clean hydrogen, facilitating the global journey to Net Zero. Ammonia may play an essential role in the decarbonization of hard-to-abate sectors, such as shipping, power generation, and heavy-duty transportation, which will accelerate the global journey to Net Zero and sustain future generations.
With ammonia-based, emission-free, high energy-density power solutions constantly improving, there is a clear need for monitoring reactants and contaminants. These measurement devices should be able to measure required components (NH3, H2, N2, and H2O) over a wide concentration range, have short cycle times, be inert towards reactants, and, if possible, be able to monitor multiple reactor systems or lines.
This presentation describes how the Agilent 990 Micro GC is used to quantitatively measure NH3, H2, N2, and H2O simultaneously in various ammonia-based sample streams, providing a robust analytical solution that can handle a broad range of conditions up to 100% ammonia, without compromising performance.
Why should you view it?
To gain a better understanding of the value micro-GC can bring to catalytic research projects including both laboratory R&D as well as piloting.
Who should view it?
Laboratory technicians, researchers, and scientists wishing to learn more about how the Agilent Micro GC can be a great solution for catalytic reaction monitoring.

Dr. Tomas Ricciardulli
Catalyst Scientist, Amogy, Inc.
Tomas Ricciardulli is a Catalyst Scientist at Amogy, a technology startup located in Brooklyn, New York, which develops systems for the conversion of ammonia to power. His work focuses on the production and purification of hydrogen gas from liquid anhydrous ammonia. Tomas has a background in heterogeneous catalysis, a multidisciplinary field that, among other techniques, extensively uses gas chromatography for product and reactant analysis. After earning a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemical Engineering from Cornell University in 2017, Tomas defended his Chemical Engineering Ph.D. thesis in 2022 at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign where he used an Agilent 7890 GC to study the active site requirements for the H2O2 synthesis reaction.
