Electrolytic cell for the production of ammonia

An electrolytic cell for the production of ammonia (NH3) from N2 and H2O, the electrolytic cell comprising (i) an electrolytic cell unit comprising a first electrode, a second electrode, and an electrolyte, (ii) a voltage generator, (iii) a supply of a dinitrogen (N2) comprising fluid, and (iv) a supply of a water comprising fluid, wherein the voltage generator is configured to apply a negative potential to the first electrode and a positive potential to the second electrode, wherein the electrolyte is configured to allow transport of protons, wherein the first electrode is permeable for protons and non-permeable for O2 and H2O, wherein the first electrode is at first side in contact with the electrolyte and at second side is in fluid contact with the supply of the dinitrogen comprising fluid, and wherein the second electrode is permeable for protons, and non-permeable for O2, or H2O, wherein the second electrode is at first side also in contact with the electrolyte, and at second side in fluid contact with the supply of the water comprising fluid, and wherein the electrolyte is contained in a compartment between the first side of the first electrode and the first side of the second electrode.
