Oxygen transport reactors for co-generating ammonia and power

A system for co-generating ammonia and power, the system comprising:

• a first oxygen transport reactor (OTR) comprising a first ion transport membrane (ITM) separating a first feed side and a first permeate side, the first feed side including a first feed inlet and a first feed outlet, the first permeate side including a first permeate inlet and a first permeate outlet, wherein the first feed inlet is configured to receive water vapor to be converted into hydrogen and first oxygen on the first feed side, the first ITM is configured to selectively permeate the first oxygen to the first permeate side for combustion, the first feed outlet is configured to discharge the hydrogen, and the first permeate outlet is configured to discharge a first combustion gas;
• a second OTR comprising a second ITM separating a second feed side and a second permeate side, the second feed side including a second feed inlet and a second feed outlet, the second permeate side including a second permeate inlet and a second permeate outlet, wherein the second feed inlet is configured to receive air comprising nitrogen and second oxygen, the second ITM is configured to selectively permeate the second oxygen to the second permeate side for combustion, the second feed outlet is configured to discharge the nitrogen, and the second permeate outlet is configured to discharge a second combustion gas;
• a convertor for receiving the hydrogen from the first feed outlet and the nitrogen from the second feed outlet to produce ammonia;
• and
• a gas turbine for receiving the first combustion gas from the first permeate outlet and the second combustion gas from the second permeate outlet to produce power,
• wherein the first OTR is positioned adjacent to the second OTR and configured to absorb combustion heat from the second OTR.
