Saving Our Soil: Ammonia

Best known as a fertilizer, ammonia could also be used as fuel. Currently, it is made through an energy-intensive process using natural gas.

Other potential approaches include Nitrogenase bioelectrocatalysis.

This method is attractive because it can be done at room temperature and at 1 bar pressure

Quantum computing can help simulate the process of enhancing the stability of the enzyme, protecting it from oxygen and improving the rate of ammonia production by nitrogenase.
