Apparatus and method for production of green hydrogen using steam generated during production of green ammonia

A method comprising:

• controlling a supply of steam from an ammonia reactor unit to a heat exchange unit at a first timestamp, wherein the ammonia reactor unit is configured to produce green ammonia and the steam;
• controlling the heat exchange unit to extract a pre-determined amount of heat from the steam and transfer the extracted pre-determined amount of heat to a water supply unit, wherein the steam, after the extraction of the pre-determined amount of heat, is condensed into water and fed to the water supply unit;
• controlling the water supply unit to increase a temperature of the water in the water supply unit from a first temperature value to a second temperature value using the transferred pre-determined amount of heat;
• controlling a supply of the water from the water supply unit to an electrolyzer unit, wherein the electrolyzer unit is configured to split the water to produce green hydrogen and green oxygen;
• controlling the ammonia reactor unit to produce the green ammonia and the steam at a second timestamp using the produced green hydrogen, wherein the produced steam at is fed into the heat exchange unit at the second timestamp;
• and
• controlling an ammonia storage unit to store the produced green ammonia.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon, computer-executable instructions that when executed by a processor of an apparatus, causes the processor to execute operations, the operations comprising:

• controlling a supply of steam from an ammonia reactor unit to a heat exchange unit at a first timestamp, wherein the ammonia reactor unit is configured to produce green ammonia and the steam;
• controlling the heat exchange unit to extract a pre-determined amount of heat from the steam and transfer the extracted pre-determined amount of heat to a water supply unit, wherein the steam, after the extraction of the pre-determined amount of heat, is condensed into water and fed to the water supply unit;
• controlling the water supply unit to increase a temperature of the water in the water supply unit from a first temperature value to a second temperature value using the transferred pre-determined amount of heat;
• controlling a supply of the water from the water supply unit to an electrolyzer unit, wherein the electrolyzer unit is configured to split the water to produce green hydrogen and green oxygen;
• controlling the ammonia reactor unit to produce the green ammonia and the steam at a second timestamp using the produced green hydrogen, wherein the produced steam at is fed into the heat exchange unit at the second timestamp;
• and
• controlling an ammonia storage unit to store the produced green ammonia.
