An important component for, amongst other things, fertilisers is ammonia. The raw material used for fertilisers is urea which was first discovered by Hilaire Rouelle in 1773. Since 1828, it has been possible to artificially synthesise this organic compound using ammonia as a base. Today, ammonia is produced on an industrial scale using natural gas, air and water as components. It is vital to produce hydrogen gas by breaking up natural gas. The so-called Haber-Bosch process is the reaction between hydrogen gas and nitrogen gas to produce ammonia.
